Today we’d like to introduce you to T. Denise Golden.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I’ve loved giving massages as far back as I can remember. After high school, I attended college in pursuit of the medical field because my passion has always been helping people. While in college, I had a part-time job in the hospital. I realized that the setting was not for me, and I became discouraged. However, at my next part-time job, a coworker told me that she was attending massage therapy school. I immediately became intrigued!! I withdrew from nursing school and enrolled in massage therapy school. I’ve never had a day of regret! After working at a couple of spas, I made the decision to go back to school for esthetics. In 2021, I was presented with the opportunity to begin my own practice, birthing Kneaded Therapies by TDenise. During my 15 years in this industry, I’ve learned that everyone needs massage as well as skincare, but most don’t know how much they need it until AFTER they receive it. Thus, the play on the name, needed therapies. Every day, I get to live out my passion of helping people!!! And not only do I get to help them feel better, I get to help them aesthetically as well!! I love it here!!!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I wish I could say that it has been a smooth road. If I’m being honest with myself, I would have to say that the biggest struggle for me has been myself! I’m learning to get out of my own way. It is one thing to believe in yourself, it is another thing to bet on yourself! My business will only go as far as I believe and allow it to grow. Having a strong circle/team has definitely been a positive for me.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
When it comes to Kneaded Therapies by TDenise, you will always leave out looking and feeling better than you came in. Rehab therapy (pain management, post-op recovery, and tension reduction) and full-body waxing are our specialties. I believe what sets us apart is that the fact that this is more than a job, but a passion! It isn’t work when you love what you do. What makes me most proud is when guests come in for treatment with questions and concerns and after their treatment, not only are they leaving feeling better, but they have a higher level of confidence about their circumstances. To know they are leaving feeling reassured and better than they came makes all the difference for me. We also offer facial/skin care services designed to get our guests on a good skincare routine as well as spa treatments and body contouring services. Kneaded Therapies by TDenise is more than a wellness spa, it’s a space to help you fall back in love with yourself!
