Mimi’s path toward healing began in 2004 at the National University of Health Science in Illinois, where she discovered her deep love for therapeutic bodywork. Graduating in 2005, she worked in high-end spas known for their calm ambiance and refined techniques. But it wasn’t long before Mimi realized that her calling extended beyond luxury — her true passion was helping people heal.
While working with clients in Chicago, she noticed how many suffered from chronic pain, stiffness, and stress-related tension. This realization changed her entire approach. Mimi began to focus on pain management and functional massage therapy, bringing real relief to people who had almost given up hope of finding comfort.
In 2008, she took a bold step — opening her own spa in central Illinois. Her clients ranged from professionals to hardworking farmers, all of whom shared a common goal: to live without pain. This diverse experience taught her that everybody has a story and every client needs something different.
Now, with her son residing in sunny San Diego, Mimi has brought her healing touch to California. Her mission remains the same — to help people feel better in their own bodies, using a personalized blend of Eastern and Western massage techniques.
At Mimi’s Massage San Diego, every massage is thoughtfully designed to:
“I invite you to experience a massage unlike any other — one designed not just for relaxation, but for real, lasting results.” — Mimi
What makes Mimi’s work special is her ability to combine medical-grade techniques with a compassionate, intuitive touch. She doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, each session begins with a thoughtful conversation — she listens to your concerns, learns about your pain points, and creates a massage plan that fits you.
Whether you’re struggling with chronic back pain, muscle stiffness, or simply need to escape from daily stress, Mimi uses an effective mix of therapeutic and holistic bodywork. Her methods may include:
These sessions aren’t just about physical touch — they’re about reconnecting your mind and body. Many clients describe their sessions as “transformative,” leaving not just relaxed muscles, but also a peaceful, centered feeling that lasts for days.
As a trusted massage therapist in San Diego, Mimi believes that true healing comes when the body and mind are in harmony. That’s why she creates an atmosphere of safety, comfort, and trust in every appointment.
Did you know? According to the American Massage Therapy Association, regular massage can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and even lower blood pressure. That’s why investing in massage therapy isn’t a luxury — it’s self-care that supports your overall health.
