Rachel Medlin

Rachel Medlin

Owner/Master Massage Therapist

My name is Rachel Medlin. I am a Tennessean native. I moved to Cabot, AR in 2014. In 2013 I completed my massage therapy training at Genesis Career College in Bowling Green, KY. I obtained my Master Massage Therapist license in 2019. I have over 230 hours of continuing education. I have experience in both spa and clinical settings.
In 2017, Shalee Uhl and I started day dreaming of taking our love of massage to the next level; owning a school. In 2018, I'm proud to say we made that a reality. Shalee and I are happy to serve and give back to the community of Cabot.

I have been practicing Massage Therapy for 23 + years, specializing in therapeutic and deep tissue. I graduated from the American Academy of Healing Arts in 1991, and since that time, I have accumulated over 30,000 hours of massage and completed 530 hours of continuing education for Massage Therapy. I obtained my Master Massage License in 2018, and upgraded to a Massage Therapy Instructor license in 2021. Rachel Medlin & I founded Arkansas Academy of Massage in 2018.

Great program and amazing people! Being a very busy mom of 4 and a care taker for my father, AR Academy of Massage was the perfect career path for me. The school hours at the Academy worked great eith the hours my kids were attending school, which was the most important factor.

Autumn Travis

My experience with this school was great. Effort always put into the teaching and very understanding when it comes to life situations. They also do work payment program and accept VA benefits. Highly recommend to anyone interested in getting licensed in the future.

With small class sizes, the instructors get to help more one-on-one / hands-on. Whenever I verbalized my lack of comprehension over a topic, they made sure to go over it again in a different approach. Rachel and Shalee also make the expereince of school enjoyable! P.S. The school has some of the best clients too!
