Business Owner

Mary Alice Thompson is the owner/​operator of the Heart Wood Place. She had worked as a nurse for over 30 years when she decided she was ready for something more. She wanted to be on the wellness and prevention end of health care, so in 1988 she enrolled at the Health Enrichment Center’s School of Therapeutic Massage. In June of 1989 she received her certificate as a certified Massage Therapist.

While still working part-​time as a nurse, she began to build a massage clientele out of her home. As her clientele grew, she quit her nursing job and built an addition on their home to accommodate her growing business.

Shortly thereafter, the idea of «Heart Wood Place» encompassed her thoughts and dreams. She expanded her services to add a Bed & Breakfast, and Heart Wood Place was open for business in December of 1995.
