Anna Birkeland, NC LMBT #5518 has over 20 years experience in the health and wellness industry.
Her massage therapy, EMT training, private care provider and patient advocacy work experience pair well with her radiography experience, advanced radiation science studies and three years of hospital internships, enabling her to provide highly skilled direct patient care from a strong knowledge base.
Anna has always fostered positive and genuine connections with people, which have led her to many interesting life experiences, including being a nationally certified ski instructor for over 13 years, teaching for 5 of those years at Deer Valley Resort in Park City Utah, one of the top US ski destinations. As a result, she has worked as a sports massage therapist with professional athletes as well as patients who require a high level of complex care during her many years as a private care provider.
A lifelong passion for learning, growth, and adding value to relationships are her main motivators. Effective June 2021, Anna has experienced extremely high demand for services and has welcomed the addition of well qualified associate therapists to the Lighten Up team!
