Shannon Hanson, CMT (Certified Massage Therapist), LMT (Licensed Massage Therapist), and BCTMB (Board Certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork)  

Shannon was raised on a farm just outside of Houston, MN, where she started massaging her family members at the age of 7. She was in the Honors program at St. Cloud State University, majoring in English, when she decided to switch her focus and pursue massage therapy instead. She went to massage school in Rochester, MN, at Sister Rosalind Gefre's Schools and Clinics of Massage, where she cultivated a passion for understanding how the body works, and how massage can improve health. She uses a variety of techniques, ranging from Myofascial Release, Swedish, Reflexology, and Craniosacral Therapy, to deep tissue and trigger point techniques. She truly loves helping others be in less pain and improving their quality of life.

Shannon married her husband, Scott, in 2009, and they live in the beautiful south side of La Crosse, where they are raising two wonderful little boys. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, drawing, going for walks, and spending time with her family.
