Stephen Kelly, LMT

Licensed Massage Therapist Mercier Therapy and Prenatal Massage Certified

Stephen is a Vietnam veteran and became a Massage Therapist (after a long career in engineering) to help other veterans who suffer from PTSD, anxiety, and depression. The fertility journey can be its own type of battle: stress, anxiety, fear, depression, and loss can all be very traumatic experiences. Just like he saw with Vietnam vets, he knew trauma could live in a fertility patient’s physical, mental and/or spiritual body creating uneasiness or “dis-ease.” Stephen believes a massage therapist can be a conduit to the healing energy in the universe that allows the body to work better and be at greater "ease."

Along his journey as both a very experienced massage therapist and a teacher of massage at the Soma Institute (where he passes on the love and knowledge of massage therapy to his students), he felt called to help women by becoming certified in Mercier Therapy and prenatal massage. Soma Institute
