Pamela Fisher, Owner, Nationally Certified Bodyworker Massage Therapist
Graduated University of Alaska Anchorage Therapeutic Massage Program June '99


Pamela Fisher grew up in the Quad Cities and graduated from Moline High School in 1977. Three years later she got a summer job in Skagway, Alaska, and ended up living there for the next 20 years. In early 1998, Pam followed her gut feelings and enrolled in an acupressure apprenticeship at the Alaska Whole Health Institute, which led her to the University of Alaska Anchorage Therapeutic Massage Program. She completed her 500-hour acupressure apprenticeship and her 1,025-hour massage program in June 1999.

Ten days after graduation, Pam had an accident on her Harley (riding back to Anchorage from the HOG Rally in Fairbanks, Alaska) and broke her arm, giving her ample time to rethink her future. At the end of July 1999 as she was about to remove her cast, she made the life-altering decision to move back to the MidWest to be near her family. Pam bought a house in Moline, closed her bank accounts in Alaska, transferred her truck and Harley titles to Illinois, and settled in for anything but a boring life in the Quad Cities.

Pam opened Touch and Go Chair Massage kiosks at the Quad City Airport and NorthPark and Southpark Malls, and then opened Two Rivers Massage in downtown Moline. Since then, Two Rivers Massage has grown into one of the most recognized and respected massage therapy businesses in our area.

Pam reorganized and taught the Black Hawk College 600-hour Massage Therapy and Bodywork Program in 2001/2002, and offers Partner Massage class to anyone who would like to learn how to massage at home; as well as continuing education courses for massage therapists.

Pam no longer massages. She has developed Two Rivers Massage and del Sole Barefoot Spa into such a wonderful massage practice, that her full time job is doing the scheduling, bookkeeping, marketing, advertising, and basic management of both places. Pam used to offer d a r n good Swedish and Therapeutic Massage with craniosacral therapy added in as needed. She used to offers acupressure, hot stone massage, chair massage, and was THE ONLY THERAPIST IN THE QCA to offer Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy. Pam formerly taught the Partner Massage Workshops and offered massage parties in your home or office.

Pam loves to give and receive massages; however, when she is not working, she can be found riding her Harley (a 2010 FLHXSE3 Screamin' Eagle Street Glide), camping, fishing (fly fishing preferred), or walking her dog, Buster, an Australian Blue Heeler, which she found at www.petfinder.com

Marisa Vargas
Nationally Certified Massage Therapist
Graduated LaJames International College,
Davenport IA Sept 2010


Hey all, I am Marisa Vargas, the wife of Marco and the mother of 4 wonderful kids all under 6yrs old. When I am not working, we do family fun stuff like bowling and board games and of course sleeping, LOL! I am highly involved in ministries at our church and just love life! I grew up in Muscatine, Iowa and went to high school there until 1997 when I graduated. I went through the massage therapy program at La James International College and Day Spa in Davenport, having graduated in September of last year. My family lives in Stockton, Iowa...a very small town, which of course is a little ways from here, but it is so worth the travel time! My motto is "I have learned to be content in all of my circumstances." So people have been asking when I first began massaging and I reply "all my life ! it seems." My friends and family agree...I guess I have been like Tiger Woods and his golf career at such an early age. What came naturally with practice, school, and self-motivation is what I am today. People have commented that I have a very flowing massage style with great neck work. My favorite style of massage is swedish, but have learned quite effective ways to accomplish deep tissue and more therapeutic massage. Best known for my "happy whatever day it is."

Amber Waggoner
Nationally Certified Massage Therapist
Graduated Black Hawk College Massage Therapy Program, Moline IL  Dec '09

Amber graduated from Black Hawk College Therapeutic Massage Program in December 2009 and started with us right away! 

Amber really likes providing Deep Tissue and Trigger Point work because of the immediate response your body receives when releasing a tied up and knotted muscle.  "It is very fulfilling to see a satisfied client leave with less pain and more freedom of movement," Amber says!  "It's wonderful!"

Amber has 3 children ages 12, 7, and 6.  They enjoy spending time together playing WII year round, and during the summer, they love playing disc golf.



Buster Dawg
Meeter-Greeter

Rest In Peace, Buster! 
I had to put Buster to rest on 3.2.9 due to complications from Cushings Disease.  He will be missed by me as much as by my staff and our clients!  Thanks for loving him - he was a great companion!

Buster is Pam's 9 year old Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) who loves to hang out at the office and meet all of our clients. He is gentle and quiet, and loves a scratch behind the ears, or a belly rub! During his off time, Buster loves walks at the river, chasing bunnies and squirrels, and fine dining!!
