My name is Arik Nelson and live in Dunedin with my wife and two young daughters. I am a certified personal trainer with National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), a licensed massage therapist, having received my 550 hours of massage training at IPSB Life Energy Institute, the original school of holistic massage in Los Angeles. I am also a certified TRX Trainer.
I found my passion for fitness 15 years ago when I realized that I needed to make some significant lifestyle changes. I wanted to live the healthy, active lifestyle I had always envisioned for myself. It was a long journey of fitness and self discovery that led to my 45 pound weight loss. Now, working out and being active is a big part of who I am. I grew up in Maine so my love for the outdoors and nature is also deeply rooted in me. I find joy in hiking, paddle boarding, running and just about anything else that can be done outside! Swell Livin Massage & Fitness strives to help others feel like their best selves, so that they too can enjoy doing what they love best!
