A Personal Journey
Tina Meyer is the visionary CEO and Founder of Inbodyment School of Integrated Therapies, where she combines her extensive knowledge and personal experience to provide exceptional healing therapies. Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, Tina’s journey into the world of holistic health began with her own struggles and triumphs.
In the mid-1990s, Tina faced a significant challenge when she suffered a work-related back injury. This life-altering event led her to explore various rehabilitation techniques, one of which was soft tissue manipulation, commonly known as Massage Therapy. The remarkable benefits she experienced from these therapies ignited a passion within her, prompting her to become a licensed massage therapist (LMT) in 1996.
Tina’s dedication to understanding the intricacies of the body has driven her to study and master numerous therapeutic modalities, including Craniosacral Therapy, which focuses on the gentle manipulation of the cranial bones and the sacrum to enhance the body’s natural healing processes. She believes in the profound impact that these therapies can have on the musculoskeletal system and overall well-being.
