Today we’d like to introduce you to Danielle DiLorenzo.
Hi Danielle, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
How I started my career is an interesting story, originally I’m from New Jersey, and I honestly thought I was going to stay up there forever. I was passionate about dancing throughout most of my life, that abruptly ended unfortunately, and through my time in college I knew there was something I wanted to do that involved helping people. I knew I didn’t want to go into nursing or anything like that. Massage therapy came up and was always looming in the back of my mind that career was the right choice, I just didn’t know how to pursue during my time living up north. When the opportunity for me to move to South Carolina came, I took it. It was a huge change for me, I was scared, but excited to see what was waiting for me. There was a night that I went to a music festival with a group a of people I met, and while hanging with that group we were talking about all kinds of things, massage therapy was one of the topics that was spoken about, I just so happened to chime in and say that I always wanted to pursue a career path with massage, I just didn’t know how to go about doing it. Luck would have it, there was a massage therapist about the group of people I was chatting with, and she mentioned a 2 semester program at Greenville Tech. School was tough, I definitely worked my butt of to make sure that I was going to pass. And now 7 years later, here I am 2 years into my own independent practice!
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Taking the leap to start my own massage practice wasn’t smooth sailing. It’s very scary to just go ahead and jump the gun. It took me 5 years into my profession to actually realize I wanted to work for myself. There was so much research, and a lot of paperwork that went into starting your own business, I nearly went cross eyed from it all. In the end it was all worth it.
As you know, we’re big fans of Silver Crystal Wellness. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
I started Silver Crystal Wellness about 2 year ago. Offer massage treatment base services; Swedish massage, Deep Tissue Treatment, Hot Stones, and Cupping to name a few of the services I offer. I primarily specialize in the therapeutic/firm pressure type techniques, however I able fully capable of providing the more gentle relaxation touch as well.
I believe what I’m most proud of for my brand is that I am able to provide self care within my client’s daily lives, whether they need a deep tissue, or they just want to relax on a cold rainy day with hot stones. It makes me feel so amazing whenever my clients leave my studio fully rejuvenated and relaxed.
Any big plans?
After 2 years of running my business there are some things that I am in the process of changing within the next year. I am planning on rearranging some services, and I am also planning on providing some new services as well! So stay tuned for January 2027!
