About
Hello Gainesville and all others!
My name is Julie Burgevin and I am a licensed massage therapist in Gainesville, Florida. I graduated from the Florida School of Massage in 1990 after having received my B.S. in Biology from Long Island University, Southampton College, in New York. My interests in massage and holistic health began as an adolescent receiving chiropractic care, and continued into adulthood with many explorations into western and ayurvedic herbal medicines, homeopathy, and whole foods nutrition for the purpose of caring for my children and myself to the best of my ability.
I have practiced in both New York and Florida in massage clinics, neurology and osteopathy medical clinics, office, home and on-site corporate massage. I’ve worked with a clients who’ve been suffering from AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, fibromyalgia, etc, to relieve the pain and discomfort associated with such illnesses. In addition, I’ve worked with clients to relieve symptoms related to repetitive stress, automobile injuries, and chronic discomfort.
My work incorporates my training in Swedish massage, Neuromuscular Therapy (NMT), Connective tissue massage, Sports massage, Shiatsu, Structural Integration, and studies in positional release.
My latest studies are a genuinely added benefit in what I have to offer, which is personal fitness design. Having completed a 10 weekend intensive in personal training, I am excited and looking forward in attracting those who want to understand their own body! Each of us has unique and wonderful differences, and need exercise programs that FIT US…our goals, our intentions, sport specific or general over all wellness.
My desire as a healing practitioner is to aid and facilitate through touch, and now through exercise and movement, acceptance, compassion and love towards ourselves and the world as a whole. Awareness and intention of the giver AND receiver are paramount for healing to take place.
I am just developing this site, and I hope to be communicating often to let the larger community know of beneficial information on massage and exercise. If you are living in Gainesville or visiting, you are fortunate to have a blessed array of healers, alternative therapies, fitness teachers, yoga instructors, martial artists, and more, as well as the large medical community. Don’t hesitate to take care of yourself.

In peace and gratitude,
