Practitioners
After 9 years
of practicing massage therapy in places from Oklahoma to
Alaska to the heart of the Old Port, I am pleased to
have joined Dr. Dunphy here at Chiropractic Healing Arts
Center over a year ago.. My practice had been located
in Portland for nearly five years, and I am excited to
have the opportunity now to join in the effort to heal
in such a well-rounded establishment.
While
finishing my Bachelor’s degree at the University of
Tulsa, Oklahoma, I received my massage therapy training
at Touch Concepts, Inc., a massage and bodywork training
center and clinic in that city. I am nationally
certified and an active member of the American Massage
Therapy Association. In order to maintain these
memberships and train in a variety of bodywork
modalities, I have taken classes in everything from
reflexology to acupressure chair massage techniques to
prenatal massage, among many other areas. I also offer
ear candling, a gentle and effective way to deal with
sinus problems, colds, and build-up in the ears. Salt
glows and Hot Stone Massage are on the menu as well.
Having been a
patient of Dr. Dunphy’s for the last five years, I
understand the importance of combining different healing
arts in order to better heal the body. I am looking
forward to working with you to find your best balance of
bodywork and chiropractic.
Sue Timpson
has been a licensed massage therapist for 20 years.
Prior receiving her education at the Stillpoint School
of Massage, outside of Amherst MA, she spent five years
working with troubled teens. She has a background in
martial arts and yoga. Working in a therapeutic
environment and challenging herself physically, were two
of the main reasons she was drawn to bodywork.
Throughout the years, she has incorporated many
techniques (from educational trainings in massage and
yoga) that continue to enhance her practice. However,
the best training by far has been the hundreds of people
she has worked with throughout the years. Sue has found
balance in creating a relaxing experience while working
deeply with clients. Respect, hearing what clients need,
and creating a soothing safe atmosphere is honored in
her practice. With Sue, every stroke has a purpose. One
finds that she is consistently thorough in her work; one
never feels cheated or rushed.

there is a seed of wholeness alive in everyone. She sees
her role as one of working in partnership with you to

wholeness and balance.
