My name is Kathryn Lindberg and I've been a practicing massage therapist since 2011. I attended Miller-Motte in Cary for my training and I have only grown more passionate about what I do. When I was a young girl, I had the notion in my head that I would be a nurse. Until my junior year in high school, it was all I ever worked toward. However, I had a change of heart when the thought occurred to me that I didn't want to be taking care of people when they were sick and needing medicine. I didn't want to get lost in and over-whelmed by pharmaceuticals. I bounced from Medical Assistant program to Medical Office program but, although I was purely capable of doing the work, I wasn't satisfied. I felt like I had a greater purpose.
Five years after graduating high school, I took a tour of Miller-Motte and received information on their Massage Therapy program. The moment I looked into those classrooms and saw massage tables used for desks, I knew that massage is where I belonged. I was excited to go back to school. I was excited about what I would be learning and I've never lost that. For some people, massage therapy is a stepping stone to something else, but not for me. Massage is my career. I love what I do. Most importantly, I love that I never want to stop learning about it.
