Welcome to our newest board member, Jerika Hartsock.
Jerika is a Licensed Massage Therapist at Eastside Square Therapeutic Massage, which is located within the back half of the Breathing Tree studio. She specializes in deep tissue massage with the use of CBD products and offers an intuitive touch and a safe space for clients to relax and bring awareness to their bodies.
For fifteen years, she was a part time bodyworker in various states while focusing her time and energy on the travel industry. After Covid, she moved away from her customer service and sales roles, to circle back to the body and dedicate herself full-time to massage.
Since moving back to Canton in 2021, she has enjoyed watching her hometown grow and thrive. As a member of the Altrusa Club of Canton and the Canton Community Concert Association, she has volunteered her time, energy, and resources to helping these organizations make an impact locally. As the newest board member of The Breathing Tree, she hopes to support the mission of healthy living, and community connection this studio has always offered.
“To me, The Breathing Tree is community. It’s a safe space to come together, without judgement, to support the health, both mental and physical, of our friends, family, and ourselves. TBT provides that with yoga and fitness classes, grief counseling groups, and workshops. These offerings support our people to ensure we stay healthy, keep active, and continue moving forward.”
