Rebecca (Becci) Farquhar opened her massage therapy clinic Oct. 2 at 502 Main St. S. (Rear). Farquhar recently graduated from the D'Arcy Lane Institute in London where she was required to spend 2,200 hundred hours in study plus an additional 100 hours involved with outreach programs. Farquhar became aquainted with other local massage therapists through her education at D'Arcy Lane and they have worked togeth- er setting standard rates. "We would rather not compete against each other," said Farquhar. Farquhar's rates are $35 for one hour and $20 for a half hour of treatment. And although the office is open Monday to Friday 9 a.m. until 5 p.m., hours will he flexible to accommodate people who can't schedule appointments during weekdays. Farquhar said the reception she's received from the medical com- munity has been excellent. Already, two clients have been referred from local doctors. Although there are now four massage therapists in town, there are very few in the surrounding areas and Farquhar expects there will be enough clients to go around. "Other therapists arc turning people away. They can't get an ap- pointment right away," said Farquhar. Some of the injuries Farquhar has treated include low hack pain, shoulder and knee injuries. While she enjoys working with athletes. the variety of clients keep the job interesting.
