Meet Our Team

Richard Oliver

Founder of Yin & Yang Massage

Having become intrigued with massage at age four, Richard Oliver is likely the longest-tenured massage therapist you’ve met! When he began treating his family members with a shoulder rub, they praised him for relieving their aching muscles and relaxing their bodies. Their continued accolades inspired him to become a licensed massage therapist (LMT).

Like many others, Richard didn’t jump right into pursuing his passion. It was a journey that first took him down a road of nearly 29 years of working in the fast-food industry. Upon beginning his career in fast food, he quickly excelled. He received his first promotion within two months of being hired and soon moved up into management and thrived on the many challenges that followed. He learned to work with various people, recognizing that everyone has different needs and strengths. He has used that knowledge, along with many other skills he gained, to build a successful massage practice.

While he enjoyed working in the fast-food industry, Richard felt internally conflicted. He greatly valued maintaining a healthy lifestyle through a healthy diet and physical exercise while serving non-nutritional, high-fattening foods to others. This was when he decided to follow his dream to become an LMT and open his practice.

Richard values health and mobility, maintains an active lifestyle through regular gym workouts, and gauges his success each year by participating in the annual Lake Tye Triathlon and Snohomish Spartan Race. He brings this mentality into his practice to ensure he gives his clients exceptional care so they can live more productive lives.
