Brielle Myers, LMT

Practices in Fremont

and The Spa by request

Brielle just received her Washington State Massage License. However, she is years ahead of any new graduate that we have ever seen. So much so that we challenged her to compete in the Pacific Northwest Massage Championship before she even received her license, and she won a Silver Medal. So, as we say, get ready to be amazed!


Brielle started her former career as a Couples Coach in 2018 and was deep in the Relationship world until 2021, when she bought a bike and “accidently” biked across the entire country from Seattle to Bar Harbor, Maine. After 3.5 months of constant exercise, the thought of sitting in front of a computer for hours a day was unbearable. That's where the thought of becoming a massage therapist was born and now she is looking forward to a life filled with movement, connection, community.
