With 18 years of experience as a massage therapist, Caroline Darwin brings a wealth of knowledge, expertise, and passion to Lighthouse Healing Arts School.
Certified by the Healing Arts Institute in Ft. Collins, Colorado, Caroline has worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, counseling offices, yoga studios, orthopedic clinics, and spas. Her extensive background also includes a Bachelor’s degree in Science from Southern Methodist University, a Master’s degree from the University of Wyoming, and advanced training in Medicupping, Visceral Manipulation, KT taping, trauma-centered therapy, and completion of the ABMP Massage Instructor Development Program.
As a Reiki Master of 20 years, Caroline has also dedicated the past decade to teaching Reiki and facilitating wellness workshops, making her an experienced and empathetic educator. Her teaching philosophy emphasizes that learning can be both stimulating and calming, and she excels at inspiring adults ready to embrace new challenges.
Driven by the vision to provide a more complete and empowering education in massage therapy, Caroline founded Lighthouse Healing Arts School to fill gaps she experienced in her own training. She is passionate about equipping students with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to build long, sustainable careers in massage therapy and holistic wellness.
Throughout her career, Caroline has specialized in Neuromuscular Re-education, Deep Tissue, Structural Reintegration, and trauma-centered modalities, among many others. Her longevity in the field—a rarity in the industry—speaks to her deep commitment to listening to her body, mind, and soul to avoid burnout and thrive in her work.
Through Lighthouse Healing Arts School, Caroline envisions creating a lasting impact in Wyoming and beyond by offering accessible, high-quality occupational training. She aims to empower students to help others lead fuller, more comfortable lives while finding success and fulfillment in their own careers.
