A Note From Solitude Owner

Tina Breault-Cardon 

In 2013, Tina embarked on a transformative journey at the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy, graduating  in 2014. Fueled by a lifelong passion for nurturing others' wellbeing, Tina harbored dreams of entrepreneurship from a young age, though the precise manifestation of her dreams remained elusive. Despite navigating through various career ventures, it was her profound passion for therapeutic practices that truly spoke to her soul, guiding her towards her ultimate purpose: creating a sanctuary of tranquility and rejuvenation, aptly named "Solitude."

The road to establishing Solitude was fraught with challenges, marked by periods of uncertainty and instability. Yet, as a resilient at the time single mother of three, Tina's unique life experiences endowed her with a profound understanding of self-care and the transformative power of healing modalities. These insights not only saved her but also ignited a desire to share this invaluable knowledge with her community.

Armed with a License in Massage Therapy and a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, Tina began her career by offering her services to others within the industry. Her compassionate approach and dedication to healing resonated deeply with those she served. Over time, her vision for creating a more impactful sanctuary for healing grew strong , compelling her to take a leap of faith toward realizing her dream.

In 2020, amidst the looming challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tina fearlessly established Solitude. Despite the uncertainty of launching a new business during such turbulent times, she remained steadfast, guided by an unwavering internal compass of positivity and determination. Solitude swiftly blossomed into a nourishing space for both clients and staff, fostering growth and well-being.

By the dawn of 2024, Tina embarked on an ambitious expansion of Solitude, moving to a more spacious location to enrich the community further. Today, Solitude not only provides Massage Therapy, Acupuncture, Aesthetics, and Reiki but is also in the exciting phase of introducing an array of holistic classes, including yoga, meditation, sound healing, and more. Through Solitude, Tina continues to actualize her ultimate goal of spreading wellness, healing, and joy to her community.
