Bio
Stephen Rye Switzer, L.M.T. is a graduate of the Swedish Institute of Health Sciences and is a Licensed Massage Therapist. He specializes in Shiatsu, Deep Tissue & Swedish Massage. He has a certificate in Herbal Studies from the Third Root School of Herbal Education.
Stephen is committed to helping heal fellow organizers, activists, queers, elders and anyone with a desire to take back their healthcare from the medical industrial complex.
Stephen grew up in rural Arizona in a strong single-parent household. He has listened to the teachings of the earth from a young age - learning to love and respect plants from his grandmother and herbal knowledge from his German, Polish and Cherokee elders. Always interested in healing, but frustrated with the allopathic system, Stephen attended Middlebury College and has worked towards environmental justice for the last 10 years. He has been committed and exposed to social justice since his teens, through attending summer camps for poor and POC youth, and always keeps a vision of health justice in his heart.
Stephen is an alumni massage therapist & herbalist co-owner Third Root Community Health Center as well as a freelance bookkeeper and organizer for non-profits and worker co-ops in Brooklyn with A Bookkeeping Cooperative (ABC).
