MEET THE OWNER

Greetings,

My name is Shilo Lemmon and I am the owner of The Mindful Body Company. I wear many hats here, a few including massage therapist, wellness coach, and stretch therapist.

For the last three years, I have owned my own massage business while studying to become a Doctor of Oriental Medicine through the East West College of Natural Medicine. Currently, I have decided to take a step back from schooling to focus on growing The Mindful Body Company and settle into my newest adventure- motherhood!

I am originally from Sioux City, Iowa but currently reside in New Port Richey, Florida. I started my passion for Traditional Chinese Medicine, Massage Therapy, Health & Wellness by seeking relief from participating in many youth programs and sports teams. After graduating from West High School, I attained a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Kinesiology: Exercise Science with minors in Health, Coaching, Spanish, and Psychology at the University of South Dakota.

Since my time at USD, I have completed the advanced program at Bio-Chi Institute of Massage Therapy to obtain my certification of licensure in Massage Therapy. I have held various management positions within the Health and Wellness Field including Personal Trainer/Wellness Coach, Group Exercise Coordinator, and Wellness/Activity Director. In addition to those positions, I have enjoyed teaching Biological Concepts, Anatomy Systems I & II, and Pathology I at Bio-Chi Institute of Massage Therapy for four years.

With my past training I am blessed to be certified in multiple modalities within massage, and love to combine the Eastern practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the Western Medicine practices. A few of the massage techniques I specialize in with my practice are TCM Acupressure, Fire Cupping, Reflexology, Ear Candling, MTR – Musculo Tendon Reeducation, PNF Assisted Stretching, Esalen, Medical Qi Gong, Prenatal Massage, Deep Tissue/Trigger Point, Cranial Sacral, Swedish, and Sports Massage.

As a Wellness Coach I enjoy working with all ages, symptoms, and syndromes! In the past I have enjoyed working with special population groups including Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons, and Diabetes I & II. In addition to special populations, I have worked with the active older adult population on strength training, flexibility, joint stability, and pain relief. Outside of active older adults, I was also a Velocity trainer for CNOS Center working with children and youth fitness programs ranging from kindergarten to high school ages. With this wide span of experience I feel confident in my ability to listen and respond to all individuals' unique needs and use my skills to assist others.

I recommend her to all my friends and family. She is not only great at her job but an incredibly kind person to deal with.”

  • "She is a true miracle worker.”

    “I have known Shilo Anne for years now and she has been nothing but kind hearted to everyone she meets. The knowledge that she possesses is incredibly helpful. She works to understand the healing process, the body as whole, and all of its systems. She is a true miracle worker.”

    — RK Ocala, FL

  • "... her skills of understanding the body and its stressors (mind, body, connection) is amazing."

    “Shilo is an amazing massage therapist not only will you feel very comfortable with her but her skills of understanding the body and its stressors (mind, body, connection) is amazing. She understands how important flexibility is and moves your body and through your body in order for chi to move easier and flow. Her massage technique goes above and beyond your expectations. If you are looking for better results than your average massage try Shilo. You won't regret your decision.”

  • "- helping people the best way she can.”

    “When Shilo is working her magic on you, you feel the love coming straight out of her fingertips. Shilo totally opened my eyes to how therapeutic acupuncture and massage can be, especially when combined. I didn't believe in acupuncture before Shilo discussed it with me, now, I won't ever doubt it again. It was an absolutely incredible experience, mainly because Shilo has an intuition for what exactly your body, mind and soul need for therapy. It was the only time I remember getting a massage without having to ask the therapist to adjust the pressure or area they are working on – I have never been so comfortable and relaxed. You'll be able to tell Shilo LOVES what she does, helping people the best way she can.”

  • "...makes you feel comfortable and releases the stress in your body..."

    “Shilo is an amazing massage therapist. If you are looking for someone that makes you feel comfortable and releases the stress in your body she is someone that you can trust and help you to feel lighter.”
