My name is Arland Abbott, I was born November 14, 1978 in Tacoma WA where I spent most of my life before joining the military in 1998. Proud to say, while serving my country in the United States Navy, a passion for health and fitness came over me. After serving my country I found myself working construction by day, managing a shoe store at night and on the weekends I would work security for nightclubs. All that came to an end when an injury put me on the couch for a couple of months. No job and 50lbs heavier, I landed an opportunity to work for one of the biggest fitness gyms in Washington State. During my employment, I obtained my certification for becoming a fitness instructor (personal trainer) in 2006.
It is 2013, and my passion for health and fitness has turned into much more, I am a Licensed Massage Practitioner. I work with a unique team of healthcare practitioner who specialize in the strengthening and rehabilitation from trauma, such as surgery, car accidents, work injuries and strokes. As a Massage Therapist, muscle stability is my focus.
I am also interested in the strengthening and rehabilitation of young athletes who are suffering traumatic injuries that can alter their life while playing high school and club sports.
