Andrea Turner, CMT

AndreaAndrea Turner, CMT, was voted Best of Oakland 2010 by Oakland magazine readers, and you can read what many of her clients have to say about her on Yelp.com.

Andrea is certified in Swedish, Sports Massage, TMJ Massage, Pregnancy Massage, and Trigger Point by San Francisco School of Massage, and studied Deep Tissue massage with Art Riggs, a renowned expert in the field. Andrea holds a massage license from the state of California (California Massage Therapy Council Licensee #10867.)

She served on the advisory board for the Massage Therapy Program of Western Career College in Emeryville 2007 - 2009. She has volunteered as a massage therapist for the California Lifecycle (a seven-day bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles, benefiting Aids research). She also occasionally serves as a teaching assistant for Sports Massage classes at her former massage school.

In a previous incarnation, Andrea was a Project Manager for web consultancy Razorfish, building large-scale websites for clients such as Intel, Williams Sonoma, and Paramount. It would have been easy to stay in the corporate life, but she eventually choose to do something she really loved: massage. She opened Andrea Turner Massage Therapy in 2005.

Andrea became interested in helping people at an early age: her first job was giving shoulder rubs to family friends for quarters, at the age of nine. While in high school, she worked summers as a lab assistant in a Duke cancer research laboratory and served as a Sports Medicine Trainer during the school year. After spending her formative years of sitting on the sidelines of volleyball, softball, and basketball games armed with a first aid kit, she proudly completed her own first-ever triathlon in 2004.

I realize that not every issue in life can be addressed by massage. So, I've searched the local community and found some excellent answers to common issues that often plague my clients.

Align Chiropractic
Your muscles hang on a framework, and if that framework is out of alignment, your muscles can be chronically stretched, shortened, and painful. Dr. Carolyn Finnegan and her staff at Align Chiropractic are rooted in science - they combine adjustments and physical therapy for serious results! They typically start with x-rays, point out any places where your spine deviates from normal alignment, give you options, then create a customized treatment plan just for you. And the changes stay put. I just love what they are able to do for my massage clients. They are also Best of Oakland.

Skin and Tonic
Skin and Tonic is an award winning skin care studio a few blocks away on Grand Avenue across from the Grand Lake Theater. Their favorite clients are those with problem skin... no matter your issue, they'll fix you right up! They have powerful tonics, potions and lotions that keep people looking their best. You can even schedule online - Just go to the website and select the Book Now button.

Innerstellar Yoga and Pilates
Often the root cause of low back issues can easily be addressed by a little core strengthening, and there's no better way to build this quickly than pilates. Kristin 'Kiki' Goldsmith is my favorite pilates guru, and she's a highly experienced instructor, offering group classes and individual instruction in a beautiful studio.

Oakland Community Acupuncture
Accupuncture is the only system of medicine with over a thousand years of proven results. Did you know that acupuncture can increase your chance of getting pregnant by 30%? Or that it can help with a myriad of other health issues, even including weight loss? Ky Yu at Oakland Community Acupuncture is a great person to have on your wellness team.

PacWest Boot Camp
Are you an athlete looking to 'up' your game, or get ready for a big event? PacWest Athletics has a huge number of fitness programs that are guarenteed to whip you into shape, such as Boot Camp, a multi-week athletic program, and even specialized classes, like Yoga For Runners. They are in SF, Oakland, Marin and the South Bay.
