Julie - Massage Therapy & advanced therapies
Owner of Gainesville Massage Therapy
Julie began GMT independently in 2001, and has steadily grown to be able to help other massage therapists. She aspires to assist therapists by providing a professional environment. Maintaining the office and establishment licensing, the online presence, and keeping up to date with all business aspects, helps therapists focus on massage while building their own clientele.
Julie has received many massages over the years, and personally advocates for those therapists that choose to work with her within GMT.
Gainesville Massage Therapy is a booking service for licensed massage therapists. Each therapist is an independent contractor, maintaining their own licenses and insurance. GMT provides a safe, clean facility for these independent professionals to provide you with the highest quality of service, along with providing convenient scheduling and payment services.

Schedule with Scarlett when missing Becky (Rebecca)
Over the past 20 years she has expanded her knowledge with trainings in a myriad of techniques and modalities. Her initial 900 hour program exposed her to many approaches of massage therapy by an array of talented instructors. This broad base gave her a greater understanding of the possibilities bodywork has to offer. She has increased that broad base of knowledge with additional education, training in Neuromuscular Therapy (Cathy Coehn) Energetic Myofascial Release (Glenna Rice), Vibration Therapy & Inside Out Paradigm (Dale Alexander), and Advanced Cranio & Visceral Mobilization (Richard Royster). These educators helped Scarlett develop her own unique and integrated style. Her slow myofascial release combined with breathwork truly allow for a profound sense of relief and ease. Scarlett lovingly refers to this as her “sweet talk” philosophy, blending relaxation with a therapeutic experience.
Rebecca - (on medical leave) Massage Therapy
Rebecca, who also goes by Becky, is a graduate of the Arizona School of Massage (Fall 2002). She worked for 10 years within a physical therapist’s office as a PT tech, massaging and managing. She moved to Alachua county to help run her small family farm. Since arriving, she’s worked as a rehab tech/registered chiropractic assistant at a chiropractor’s office. She’s steadily worked these past 21 years as a devoted and amazing hands on healer!
