Olyvia Norton (formerly Elisabeth) is a licensed massage therapist in Illinois and Wisconsin, in private practice since 1996. She became interested in bodywork after receiving effective treatments for chronic, debilitating injuries resulting from a series of auto wrecks.

Oliva completed a 500 hour program at the Massage Therapy Institute of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. She has attended over 3000 hours of additional training focusing on Myofascial Release with John Barnes, Crainosacral Therapy through The Upledger Institute, and Visceral & Nerve Manipulation with the Barral Institute.

In 2004, Olyvia was a member of the Sports Massage Team for the Paralympic Games in Athens, Greece. She has provided treatment for the Wisconsin Badgers Athletic Department, Ironman in Florida, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin, The Endeavour Games in Oklahoma City, and endless running, biking, and sporting events around the US.

As well, she has provided patient treatment for the Integrative Medicine department of the UW and local Chicago chiropractor offices. Professionally, she is a member of the American Massage Therapy Association.

An anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology instructor at MTIM starting in 1998, Olyvia joined the staff at Lakeside Massage Therapy School in Madison, Wisconsin in 2005. Additionally she taught sciences and hands-on classes at East West Healing Arts in Madison for over a decade. She has been a teaching assistant for both The Upledger Institute and John Barnes courses.

Since relocating to Chicago in 2022, Olyvia has developed a love of being outside on the Lake, in any of the amazing local museums, music venues, & vintage stores, learning fiber arts while connecting with somatic therapy colleagues, baking C-city generated home grown sourdough, and diving full tilt into playing cello for Chicago City Wide Symphony Orchestra.
