Meet the TLC Team

Brenda Frederikson was born and raised in Scottsdale, AZ. For as long as she can remember, she has been passionate about helping people. She's thankful that her parents taught her how to lead an athletic lifestyle. Most of her childhood was spent playing soccer, softball, and her favorite sport volleyball. During college, Brenda taught step aerobics and enjoyed trail running. She graduated from ASU with a B.S. in Marketing. After spending several years in the corporate world of business, Brenda had a life changing medical event that eventually inspired her to return to true wellness care. These days outside of the office, you can find Brenda coaching at WildFire CrossFit in North Phoenix, where she specializes in kid programs and beginner bootcamps.

I was 39 years old and about to start all over. I needed to do something where I was helping people get healthy, with a focus on prevention and taking a holistic approach. I needed to do something where I could be my own boss, set my own hours, did something that helped people, and have time for my family. Getting my massage therapy license quickly found itself at the top of the list. And I love what I do! Please make no mistake, I’m NOT a “fluff and buff” massage therapist! I really take a holistic approach and seek to resolve the true causes of pain and dysfunction. Usually that involves scar tissue (from trauma or repetitive use) that needs to get broken down using deep tissue / myofascial release therapies.

At the core, I believe that we are all meant to live vibrant lives free from pain and dysfunction – all we have to do is just get the body back into balance and moving the way it was designed to move. Everyday I get to help my clients feel better, move better, and live better. And I am truly grateful for people believing in me and trusting me! Thank you!

She is currently going to school at Scottsdale Community College to be a Dental Hygienist! In her free time, Briana likes to visit with her family and spend time outdoors with them hiking and exploring all the beautiful sights Arizona has to offer. On days when she wants to stay home, she enjoys curling up on the couch with her puppies and reading a good book or finding a recipe where she can put her cooking skills to the test in the kitchen!
