Sheila Spencer L.M.T.

Sheila received her training as a Massage Therapist at Lakeland College. She graduated in May 2009 and became Nationally Certified in July 2009.

She has been a Licensed Practical Nurse since November 2001 and has worked in Long Term Care for a majority of this time.

Her long term care experience has enabled her to work with not only the geriatric population, but also the mentally challenged, psychiatric population, and the Alzheimers / Dementia population.

She also was employed by an agency and gained experience working in the hospital setting and medical clinics. She received her training as an LPN at Lakeland College.

Being a massage therapist allows her to continue to fulfill the desire to help people, but in a way much different than nursing. She is able to bring relief in a more natural and holistic means.

She continues to study and learn new techniques to enable her to assist her clients in pain management, relaxation, reduction of stress, and connecting mind, body and spirit.

Sheila enjoys the beauty of living in the country on her family's cattle farm. She enjoys time with her friends and family and cherishes the time spent with her grandson.

Running is a passion in her life and has participated in many 5Ks, 10Ks, half marathons, and has completed 3 marathons.

She is inspired by the young patients of St Jude Research Hospital and runs on the Mattoon to Peoria St Jude team to raise money for St Jude.

She enjoys going to Memphis to participate in the St Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend to also raise money for St Jude.

She views running as a way to maintain her own health and also a way to help those that are unable to run or be active.

Kickboxing is another passion of hers that provides not only physical fitness, but also a basis for self defense. She loves challenges that kickboxing gives her.
