Terri Urban, LMBT

Terri Urban's approach to treating a client is to customize the treatment session according to each individual. Terri's traditional training in Anatomy, Trigger Point Therapy, Deep Tissue, Sports and Swedish Massage combined with her more alternative techniques such as Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, and Myofascial Release allow for a unique holistic approach to treatment. Terri has been doing bodywork for 14 years. She began her manual therapy career as a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) in 1996. As a PTA, Terri worked in a diverse patient population including Outpatient orthopaedics, Brain Injury, Alzheimer's unit, Psyche ward, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Sub-acute and long term nursing units.Terri currently teaches an Introduction to Structural Integration class at Wake Technical Community College. In her 9 years of teaching, she has taught Trigger Point, Pregnancy Massage, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Anatomy, Kinesiology and is the former Clinic Director at Medical Arts.

Terri is a member of Carolina Emergency Response Massage Team (CERMT). CERMT is a non profit organization that offers massage therapy to relief workers during times of man made and natural disasters. Terri has volunteered with CERMT since 2000 and has worked with relief workers during events such as Hurricane Floyd, Kinston Chemical plant Explosion, Hurricane Alex and Hurricane Isabel. She spent 2 weeks in New York City volunteering massage during the 9/11 recovery and one week in Mississippi following Hurricane Katrina giving massage to police, firefighters and health department command centers. 

        Through my work with CERMT I have 
        been able to see how touch can create a 
        tremendous amount of healing. Through
        the unfortunate devastation in New York
        and Mississippi, I was able to witness the 
        best of humanity. As people from all over 
        the world pulled their resources 
        together to help those in need.  It's how 
        the world should be everyday.
