Before opening Ladybird, Lauren worked in physical therapy and chiropractic clinics for ten years as a massage therapist, PT aide, and running gait analyst. She has worked with runners and sports teams of all levels from beginners to olympians and has found her passion for helping endurance athletes. She specializes in a mixture of myofascial release and deep tissue massage to address the root of chronic pain or lingering injuries. Each session is customized to include exactly what your body needs that day so you can eliminate deep muscle knots and get back to a healthy place.

When she is not working, Lauren is probably outside exploring Washington. She loves to run, ski, hike, and spend time with her husband and three pets.

Ladybird is named for the main running trail in downtown Austin where Lauren logged thousands of miles in her time there. She wanted to blend her Texas roots with her love of the beautiful Pacific Northwest. We are so happy to share Ladybird with you!
