CLOUD 9 STATE OF MIND MASSAGE THERAPY was founded in 2000 by Benita Turner.  She received her training for her certification from the Virginia School of Massage based in Charlottesville, Virginia. 
     Always having a special gift of "touch", she decided to get her training and certification so she could begin gaining experience as a medical massage therapist and someday own and operate her own practice.  Her vision of creating a massage experience that would heal her client's mind, body, spirit, and soul finally came together when she was able to afford to own and operate her own business located in Roanoke City, Virginia.

     Benita is a member of the AMTA, and is recognized by the Virginia Board of Nursing.

     In Benita's spare time, she enjoys taking care of her labrador retrievers and her cats.  She also thoroughly enjoys being outdoors, hiking, traveling, and the beach!
