Kim Trulli
EHMI Director
I Kimberly Trulli, am the founder of Essential Health Massage Institute & Therapy Clinic. I have been a massage therapist for over 14 years and have been teaching for three. Teaching has always been a dream of mine and in the past I have held several workshops throughout my career such as: Infant Massage, Family Care Technique, Pain Relief Practice and much more. I have always wanted to teach through my experience and I strongly believe that through my success; I now have the ability to share this information with my students.
On average, I have applied 20,160 hours of hands-on application, in both medical and private practice. In my pursuit to empower my knowledge, I channeled my thoughts and education for chiropractic school. One year later, I decided to expand my current practice by incorporating all forms of alternative care. My ambition to maintain a thriving practice in Merced began to steer me away from chiropractic school. “Needless to say, it was the best move for me.” I then decided to open the Massage School and began certifying students January 9, 2006. I currently have a great team of professionals who surround me today and with their support I have expanded the program to meet several approving departments.
