Emily Owen

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: Westlake

The Moench Method is a modality all its own. I had previously been to chiropractors, bodyworkers, physical therapist for any an all pain. I found the Moench Method Clinic after a car accident in 2019. I was relieved of all my neck pain, low back pain and pains that had been unearthed during the process of my treatment. Being an avid mover and a Pilates Instructor I could feel the difference in how my body moved and felt in my practice. I am passionate about helping my clients move better and feel better. Having experienced the shift in my body I knew that getting my license in Massage Therapy was my next step and, immediately after graduating from LTC, I started my journey to learn the Moench Method under Ken's tutelage.

Yusef El-Mansouri

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: Westlake

As a massage therapist, I am not just a practitioner of touch; I am a conductor of healing, armed with an engineer's mind and a heart full of compassion. My journey into this realm began unexpectedly with a mild traumatic brain injury in 2018 that exposed me to the world of chronic pain for many years. Although my injury was invisible to the outside world, it was real. I believe your pain is real too. This personal experience ignited a passion to understand pain, healing, and the remarkable potential inherent within the human body. / With my professional experience as a process engineer for over seven years, I bring a highly analytical mindset to bodywork. I approach each session as a unique puzzle, crafting a tailored treatment plan to untangle the knots and restore balance. I am here to alleviate your pain, restore your well-being, and guide you toward a life of vitality. / Outside of massage therapy, you'll find me pursuing a variety of interests — gymnastic strength training, Latin dancing, camping, backpacking, cooking, baking sourdough bread, photography, travel, reading, drawing, sports leagues, and more. These hobbies keep both my body and mind agile, ready to provide you with the utmost care.

Kaylee Montero

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: New Braunfels

My name is Kaylee, and I've been practicing massage therapy since 2018! My passion for this work started when I was receiving bodywork for a shoulder injury from CrossFit. I couldn't believe the results I got, so I signed up for massage school to help others achieve those results too!

I participated in a variety of sports growing up, from softball and competitive gymnastics, to CrossFit and competitive cheerleading. I'm currently a national level Olympic Weightlifter, so that takes up most of my free time!

Teena Taylor

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: New Braunfels

As a previous USAW Olympic Weightlifting coach, USL lacrosse player, and athletic trainer, I've seen and experienced pain from over-training and under-recovery. I've also experienced the effects of chronic pain that prevented me from doing the things that I enjoy. My goal as a therapist is to improve my client's mobility and help them maintain an active lifestyle.

Luke Williams

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: Round Rock

Growing up, sports has always been apart of my life, especially baseball. After graduating high school, I played JuCo baseball in Kansas for a year, but moved back home after realizing that isn’t what I wanted to do with my life. Now, I’m able to still be involved in baseball by helping other athletes reach their goals. When I’m not being a massage therapist, I’m in the gym training, and planning on doing my first bodybuilding show in the near future.

Diana Gates

Licensed Massage Therapist

Location: Round Rock

I made my way to Moench Method Bodywork in 2016. I had just fallen in love with triathlons and had signed up for my 1st 70.3 Ironman in Wilmington, North Carolina.  Midway in my training plan, I ended up with severe shin splints where I was told to stop running or I would end up with a fracture.  I started physical therapy, acupuncture, and others, but nothing would stop the pain, much less get me ready for the race. Not wanting to stop, I looked for other alternatives.  Cue Ken and his bodywork method. I walked in, limping in pain, and walked out pain-free.

I left healthcare after 35 years, with my last position as an IT Process Owner, to pursue my newfound passion of assisting others in living a pain-free life.
I love the one-on-one interaction with the clients and assisting them in achieving and maintaining selfcare.

McKenzie Lasseigne

Licensed Massage Therapist

Hello and welcome! I met Ken Moench through his daughter, Lauren, in the Summer of 2022. I was very skeptical (I had plans to become a PT) and unsure if massage was right for me. One session was all it took before I felt the benefits. After much soul-searching, I decided it was worth a try. Now, a Louisiana native, avid reader, horseback rider, and kinesiology nerd, I'm to be a part of the fantastic team at Moench Method!

Scott Woolwine

Licensed Massage Therapist

My journey with Moench Method Bodywork started nearly twenty years ago, as a client in severe nerve pain due to two slipped discs in my lower back. That first appointment was life changing for me. Not only was I able to continue to train and play the sports I loved, but Ken taught me a different way to view the body. As a strength and conditioning coach, I used a lot of the principles that Moench Method had taught me, which resulted in a higher level of performance from each athlete. After referring athletes back and forth for those twenty years, we decided it was time to have therapy and performance work together under the same roof. Our goal is to not only help get you out of pain, but look at every element possible to get you moving properly and performing at your highest potential.
