Nathaniel Rogers, LMBT #3861
Nathaniel has most recently achieved a certification of ’Advanced Myofascial Release Therapist’ in the John F. Barnes type of Myofascial Release. This has involved significant training, study, and practice within the John F. Barnes Myofascial Release methodology over the last few years.
Nathaniel is certified in medical massage techniques and has been a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist in the state of North Carolina since May of 2003. Nathaniel’s focus is on therapeutic applications of massage techniques. This includes medical massage based on John F. Barnes Myofascial Release techniques, deep tissue therapy, and trigger point therapy. Nathaniel is also interested in structural integration techniques that are used to re-educate the body and improve its efficiency of movement.Prior to working in massage therapy, Nathaniel received a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Duke University in 1999. At Duke, Nathaniel also followed a pre-medical course of study. His medical interest originally stemmed from having had scoliosis correction surgery in 1993. It was during his time at Duke that he explored what it meant to be a doctor and felt that going to medical school and becoming a doctor would not lead to a career or life that would be a satisfying fit for him. It was also during this time that Nathaniel was first introduced to massage and bodywork therapy. After graduation from Duke Nathaniel spent four years in Atlanta working as a software engineer. While in Atlanta Nathaniel came to understand more about his future goals and trained as a massage therapist at the Atlanta School of Massage®.
Nathaniel has also been a member of the American Massage Therapy Association®(AMTA®) since May of 2003. The AMTA® is the oldest and largest international, member-driven organization representing the massage therapy profession.
Nathaniel received a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Duke University in 1999. He graduated from the Integrative Massage and Deep Tissue Program of the Atlanta School of Massage in 2002. He received medical massage certification from a NCBTMB recognized program taught by Ralph Stephens at Body Therapy Institute.
