There are lots of massage therapists, and many options when it comes to lymphedema management. What makes Twin Peaks special is its ability to provide trusting support and care throughout the breast cancer journey, from diagnosis to the end of treatment.
It’s all I do: breast cancer care and support, meeting each patient’s needs, every step of the way.
I recognize that each person’s story and treatment is different, and that means that each plan we develop must be tailored to the unique characteristics of the case and treatment plan.
I am here to provide trusting support and care throughout a breast cancer journey – from diagnosis and treatment to recovery and survivorship.
My name is Aimee Frisk and I founded Twin Peaks Therapy after supporting several women through various stages of their breast cancer journeys. While working in a hospital setting, I was approached by a number of post-mastectomy clients seeking help with their recovery.
I realized this would require a more specialized and delicate treatment, so I searched for practitioners I could learn from and found that there were none anywhere near me. My research led me to stumble upon an amazing Occupational Therapist – a true pioneer in the field – from Australia. I studied with her and soaked up all the information I could to be able to help these women in need.
Inspired, I spent the next four years passionately furthering my education and training. I hold certifications in both Massage and Lymphatic Therapy along with significant education and expertise in scar tissue management. Throughout this time, I realized I could be of service to so many others going through the breast cancer journey, reducing stress, anxiety, and nausea, while also helping to improve range of motion, lymphatic system challenges, and general wellbeing.
I love getting lost in a good book and like long walks on the beach with my husband, two children and our dog named Kevin.

"Breast cancer massage therapy was one of the most important parts of my breast cancer recovery. Post surgery I had numerous scars and limited mobility on my left side which affected my ability to do fine detailed art projects.
Aimee is a wonderful care giver who made me feel very comfortable and confident that I was making progress. I am now close to 100% mobility and feel great. Thank you, Aimee." - Coronado Breast Cancer Survivor
" I started seeing Aimee when I had no previous luck finding someone who could focus on my very firm and sore fibrotic tissue. Radiation and multiple surgeries had left many areas around my right breast/axilla tight, scarred, and with limited movement. She listened to my full history (and my story) and designed a treatment plan to focus on loosening the tissue and gaining better mobility. Within a few treatments, I was able to see and feel visible results. My oncologist noticed the difference during my next visit, saying the breast and surrounding tissue were much less firm and more closely matched my natural breast. I would recommend treatment with Aimee, and also learning from her helpful at-home exercises to maintain the momentum between visits." - Samantha
"I am a Breast Cancer Survivor, 23 months post mastectomy. Before I found Aimee, Twin Peaks Therapy, I was having so much discomfort at and around my mastectomy site. I didn't know where to turn. I was feeling desperate for some relief from my discomfort.
I found that relief in working with Aimee for the past nine months. Aimee is so caring and compassionate. She is also very dedicated to helping those of us who must take this journey. I feel blessed that she is helping me to achieve comfort and healing both physically and emotionally. I am so grateful to her. " - Patricia C.
"I highly recommend Aimee as an experienced and compassionate massage therapist specializing in breast cancer recovery. My surgeon recommended Aimee for massage after my mastectomy so I saw her right away. She helped me through recovery, chemo, and radiation and I plan to see her indefinitely. It is really nice to work with a therapist that knows the path of breast cancer treatment and recovery. I love that she always shares tips that she has learned from her training and clients in similar scenarios. She has become a great friend and I look forward to relaxing and healing at every visit." - Kristen
