Robin Faux, LMT, CLT

Robin has been a massage therapist since 2003. In her years of practice, Robin has learned that the stresses of life’s demands can make it challenging to schedule self-care services like massage, so she does her best to remain flexible for her clients.


Robin graduated from Sinclair Community College in Dayton, OH with an Associate of Applied Science in Integrative Medical Massage Therapy. Later, she obtained her IANMT certification in neuromuscular therapy from Colorado Institute of Massage Therapy in Colorado Springs, CO. Most recently, Robin has specialized in lymphatic treatments, learning manual lymphatic drainage and lymphedema therapy through Klose Training.


Robin has had the opportunity to work with talented, diverse people in a number of environments throughout her career, but she is most excited to work with clients in her own practice with Jim. 


Although Robin enjoys taking workshops to learn new techniques, she loves learning about the intricacies of the human body through her interactions with her clients. She sees each massage as an opportunity to learn about the client’s life. Each ache or pain is a mystery to solve through careful listening and thoughtful application of techniques. Her goal in each session is to help the client feel less pain and more relaxation than they did when they entered the massage room.
