My Credentials

Board Certification in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB)

Board Certification in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork is the highest voluntary credential a massage therapist can obtain within the profession—it is above and beyond entry level state licensure. By becoming Board Certified, I represent a community of therapists who have gone above standard educational and work experience requirements with a dedicated and lifelong commit to continuing education. Furthermore, I live up to higher standards and ethics in alignment with The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB).

To achieve my Board Certification, I provided proof of a minimum of 750 hours of education, 250 hours of professional, hands-on work experience, passed a criminal background check, agreed to uphold

NCBTMB's Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics, and passed the Board Certification Exam in 2008. By passing the BCETMB and meeting all requirements, I demonstrate advanced assessment and critical thinking skills, as well as a commitment to excellence. I wear the credentials BCTMB with pride for myself, my profession, and, most importantly, my clients.

Client Testimonials

"From start to finish my experience with Raimy was spectacular. When I arrived she took as much time as needed to discuss all the details and expectations for the session as well as answer any questions or concerns that I brought. The massage itself was glorious, never did I feel like I was even remotely close to having too much or too little pressure, and all of the spots I mentioned for extra care received such and more. If at any time you want to experience pure bliss and relaxation you will find all of this here, with a professional, yet inviting atmosphere that will melt all your concerns, pains, and stress away."

"I"ve had a lot of issues receiving massages in the past - as I am extremely ticklish. When I was training for my first marathon and was having a lot of muscle problems, and after much encouragement from a friend, I decided to give Raimy Forseth a try. And man, was I glad I did. Very accommodating and understanding of what I'm comfortable and uncomfortable with, a fantastic listener, and even let me choose music that was relaxing for me instead of the normal nature stuff these places usually play. Would highly recommend to anyone!"

"Thank you for making such a huge difference in my life and in my physical and mental health. I always know that after my massages I would feel so much better than when I arrived. Coming to see you was comforting, familiar, relaxing and most of all healing. You were the best thing I found and I've found a lot of stuff!! Never give up massage. It is your gift"
