Aaron J. Bullington

Aaron has been an active member in the healing arts since 2001.  In addition to a decade of experience, he has over 1200 hours of massage and bodywork training and has been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2003.

Initially, Aaron trained at Body Wisdom Massage Therapy School in Urbandale, Iowa where he focused on clinical and therapeutic massage techniques.  Later, he completed an intensive training program in Portugal where he became certified in Integrative Bodywork.  Aaron holds a Bachelors of Science degree in Biology and Spanish. He is currently a candidate to receive both a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and Masters in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from Bastyr University in 2013.

Professionally, he has provided massage in a variety of healing environments including a fitness center, hospital, and chiropractic wellness center.  Currently, Aaron is employed by Bastyr University's faculty and employee wellness program as a massage therapy practitioner. 

In addition to massage and bodywork, Aaron has a strong passion for teaching and traveling.  From 2004 to 2007, he had the privilege of living and serving abroad as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mozambique, Africa.  There, he taught human anatomy and physiology, cytology, and plant and animal physiology at a local high school in the rural town of Mapinhane.  Following the end of his service, Aaron moved to Portugal where he played the dual role of program assistant and anatomy and physiology instructor, while deepening his own education at Green Mountain Institute for Integrative Therapy.  Aaron is also adjunct faculty at Northwest Academy for the Healing Arts, a local massage therapy school, where he began teaching in early 2011.

Pulling from his extensive massage experience and time spent living and learning abroad, Aaron incorporates a vast array of modalities into his practice.  Each customized therapy session is "eclectic" as Aaron has a passion for providing clients unique, personalized sessions that are specialized to fit their specific, individual needs.  He is constantly learning and incorporating new modalities into his practice in order to truly integrate the physical-psychological-emotional-spiritual connections. 

Aaron welcomes the opportunity to offer you his services and support as you celebrate and discover the richness of your own healing journey.
