Brita Ness, LMT

Brita is a born and raised Harborite and graduated from AHS in 2008. She attended Body Mechanics in 2012, then joined Ambiance later that year. In 2017, she took a year off to be a first-time mom. Brita has had over a decade of technical experience, working with clients to ensure they receive the massage they want/need for that treatment day – as well as working with pregnant women to help relieve the stress baby puts on their bodies. Some training she has includes: Trigger Point Therapy, PNF, Hot Stone/Spa, Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, cupping and more. Her favorite part about her job is how not one body is the same, so every massage is unique - which also gives her an idea of what other classes she should take. She and her husband have a daughter and son, and also have two fur babies. She loves spending time with her family, being outdoors and doing CrossFit in her free time.
