Our Licensed Massage Therapist

Brittany Frye is a Licensed Massage Therapist at

Effective Chiropractic and Wellness Center.

Brittany grew up in Pasadena, Maryland and graduated from Chesapeake High School in 2003.  From there she attended Anne Arundel Community College earning an Associates Degree in General Studies with a focus in Psychology.  While attending school she worked full time at a general and cosmetic dentist office.  While being a full-time student and working she still was able to be the Jumping Coach for Chesapeake High School’s Track and Field Team, where she has coached over 15 athletes to the Maryland 4A State Championships in which almost all have placed in the top 6.  As a coach she has also been a part of CHS’s numerous County and Regional Championships.

While coaching she developed a passion for teaching and pursued a teaching degree at AACC.  She wanted to focus her teaching on Physical Education.  While on a family vacation to Disneyworld she received a massage at one of their spas, and realized how effective and stress relieving it could be.  She then took an elective class on Introduction to Massage and from there she knew she wanted to become a Massage Therapist.  After taking the class she learned how massage can be used for more than just relaxation and that it has many other benefits including increased circulation, decreased blood pressure, combating insomnia, and increasing range of motion.

At AACC she perfected many massage modalities including Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, prenatal, sports, hot stone, aromatherapy, and chair massages.  She plans on continuing to expand her education on massage theory.  She is certified by The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork, is a licensed through of the Maryland Board Chiropractic and Massage Therapy Examiners and is a member of the American Massage Therapy Association.  Brittany also holds certificates in First Aid, CRP and Care and Prevention of Athletic Injuries.

In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her family and friends including her dogs Chewy and Samantha and cats Macey, Lucy and Cooper.  She enjoys jogging, volleyball and swimming.  During the summer she likes to go boating, wakeboarding and crabbing on the Bay.

She married her high school sweetheart, Jason, in August 2011 in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.  They plan on starting their own family once he is finished with his graduate studies in Civil and Environmental Engineering at UMBC, where he holds a BS in Mechanical Engineering.

She is happy to be working with Dr. Hardnett, Dr. Tarjick, and the staff at Effective Chiropractic Health and Wellness Center. She looks forward to educating patients on health and wellness practices and improving their well-being.
