Sarah Kimmel is passionate about helping people perform at their best and enjoy a pain-free and active life. As a massage therapist, Active Release Therapy specialist, and certified strength and conditioning specialist, Sarah’s unique approach empowers her clients to reach and exceed their goals. Sarah is a Greenville native who started her career as a personal trainer and teaching group fitness classes before becoming a studio manager at a few local Greenville gyms. She saw a need in the fitness and movement industry for a more comprehensive pain and injury management approach. Sarah decided to enroll in massage therapy school to earn a license that would allow her to comprehensively treat pain. However her ultimate goal was to become a ‘hybrid’ clinician - combining principles of massage therapy, exercise rehabilitation, sports performance, strength and conditioning, and the latest soft tissue techniques. She has taken continuing education through Active Release Techniques, the gold standard in soft-tissue care for active people. Sarah also spent over 500 hours assisting Dr. David Jolson to better understand how to help her patients become an expert in their own problem, not just the passive recipient of treatment. In her free time, Sarah enjoys spending time with her dog, Harley, hiking, rock climbing, and reading. She also is a competitive powerlifter and weightlifter and in 2018 she placed first at the WPC Powerlifting World Championship. She is thrilled to serve the Greenville community.
