Vicky Haechrel, NCTMB, a massage therapist at the Bloomington Natural Care Center, is a 2002 summa cum laude graduate of the massage therapy program at Northwestern Health Sciences University. She has worked as a massage therapy clinical supervisor in the University's public teaching clinic, at the University’s Natural Care Center at Woodwinds, as well as being employed as a massage therapist in the Twin Cities for the last several years. Haechrel has also taught several courses in Northwestern's massage therapy program. These courses included teaching principle and practice in classical western Swedish massage, trigger point therapy, and professional studies, which deal with business and ethics as a massage therapist. She is also certified in Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage, and is a member of the American Massage Therapy Association

“My goal is always to make a positive change in my client’s health,” explains Haechrel. 
 “Because each client's goal may differ from session to session, I feel it is my responsibility to make each session successful to the unique needs of the client at that time.”

“I thoroughly enjoy being part of the School of Massage Therapy and am very dedicated to the promotion of education in this profession,” adds Haechrel. “ I also believe that I would not be an effective teacher if I did not continue to practice and continue learning hands on.’”
