About Me

My name is Deana Briggs. I have been interested in massage since I was in high school. I was a student trainer and was allowed to massage the football players and wrestlers when they were injured. After high school I decided to pursue a different dream. My life has made a full circle and I have had the chance to fulfill my dream of massage therapy. I graduated from Myotherapy Institute in Lincoln, NE in 2008. By 2010 I made massage therapy my full time job. In November 2011 I opened my own spa, Bodywork Specialists, now MIA Massage "Miracles In Action".   I owe my success to my wonderful husband and his two wonderful children, they stand beside me as I fulfill my dreams.

I work with a lot of people that are in PAIN, chronic and acute. I have many years experience in this and learning more daily. I like to work with everyone from Prenatal to Pediatrics to Geriatrics (Hospice) and Oncology.
