The Board

After working in the hospital industry for over 25 years, Lena Roberts saw how powerful touch was in all stages of healing. She became a Florida licensed massage therapist in 2011. Soon after, she joined her husband, Scott, at Peaceful Warriors Wellness Center in downtown St Petersburg. The couple has focused on their clients, staff, and their education for the past 11 years. 

​

In 2020, Lena finished a 350-hour Reflexology program with The Foot Whisperer Institute, and later that year, ARCB Certified. In her practice, Lena regularly combines reflexology, massage, Himalayan salt stones, medicupping, aromatherapy, and other therapeutic-oriented therapies. 

​

In her ‘spare time’, Lena serves as an Ambassador for the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce and is an active member of (according to her) the “best networking lunch in St. Pete”! 

​

Lena hopes to extend the Association’s reach into smaller areas of Florida by hosting Open Houses, speaking at massage schools, and offering free/low-cost in-person classes.

Treesha is an ARCB Certified Reflexologist who began her journey in 2001 at The
Wellness Massage and Training Institute in Illinois, where she completed an
intensive 360-hour program. Initially trained in the Ingham Method under Larry
Clemmons, Treesha furthered her education with the Manzanares Method of
Reflexology and later became a Level II Structural Reflexology Practitioner. After relocating to South Florida in 2022, she earned her massage license from Aveda
Institute and has since dedicated herself to practicing reflexology full-time, offering
in-home appointments throughout the Miami area.

Beyond her private practice, Treesha also loves teaching—and has been an NCBTMB
provider since 2014, as well as a reflexologist for a clinical trial with Michigan State
University.

Looking forward, she hopes to make education a central focus, and she is
committed to passing on her knowledge to the next generation of reflexologists.
She believes reflexology is a powerful and essential modality for achieving optimal
health—one that deserves to be widely known, experienced, and embraced.

As recent transplants, Gina and her husband are proud to call the beautiful city of Nokomis, FL home. They migrated South from the bustling city of Atlanta, GA and found the quiet, beach vibe of Nokomis was just what they needed.

In Atlanta, Gina held a position as a registered nurse in the cardio/thoracic surgery unit for almost 20 years. It was during this time she discovered the need that was being ignored by our healthcare system. “We were in the business of fixing the problems, not offering a system to prevent the problems”. So, she began to educate herself in Complimentary Alternative Therapies.

Gina received her certificate of completion in Reflexology and Advance Reflexology Study at the Heal Center in Atlanta, GA. After moving to Nokomis, she enrolled at Sarasota School of Massage Therapy and received her 750 hour Certification in Massage Therapy. Soon after, she received her Board Certification in Reflexology from ARCB.

She is now the proud Owner/therapist of Ageless Heart Therapeutic Bodyworks. Her Focus is on offering services to women in her community. Gina specializes in Reflexology, Oncology Massage, and Complete Decongestive Therapy for Lymphedema.

Gina currently teaches an Introduction to Reflexology Class to students at Sarasota School of Massage Therapy and hopes to become an NCBTMB provider to teach more Reflexology classes.

My name is Debi Kleer and I started practicing reflexology in South Africa when I graduated as a Beauty and Body Therapist in 1992. It’s been a passion of mine and in 2009, I immigrated to the United States and since became a Reiki Master and added certifications in Thai Reflexology, a 300 hour Foot Reflexology Certification at the Foot Whisperer Institute in Tampa. I completed a 750-hour Massage Therapy program which widened my knowledge and understanding in Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology.

After working several years as a Therapist in the Health and Wellness Industry, I was looking to combine the benefits from many different health practices – and this allowed me to develop “Revitalize Reflex” which is a combination of my skills and expertise.

Establishing a personal connection with my clients is vital to build long-term client loyalty.

As a Reiki Master, I bring a deeper level of understanding into the true need of my client and help them to experience deep relaxation while releasing their underlying stress and fatigue. Educating my clients on continued self-care after a treatment is part of my dedication as a therapist. It gives me a great sense of fulfillment when I see improvement in their physical health and emotional wellbeing.
