Meet The Staff
Massage Therapy
Kelly Petty – Licensed Massage Therapist
Kelly Petty
Kelly was born and raised in Dallas, TX. She attended Baylor University and received her undergraduate degree in Psychology and then went on to obtain her Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling. After some personal health challenges and frustration with traditional allopathic medicine, Kelly found her way to Chiropractic which began her own healing journey and opened her eyes to alternative and integrative medicine.
Kelly worked as a Psychotherapist for almost twenty years and after moving to Denver from Naples FL she worked for various home care and hospices agencies doing counseling and marketing. After being laid off due to a hospice closure in January 2011, Kelly decided it was time to step out of her comfort zone and do something she had wanted to do for a very long time…attend massage school. Once deciding to follow her heart she was led to the Massage Therapy Institute of Colorado for her bodywork education.
In addition to her current education with MTIC, Kelly is trained in Healing Touch*, Reiki, and is certified in the Raindrop Therapy Technique. As a compassionate therapist, my goal in each and every session is to understand your needs and help you achieve balance by gently guiding change and reconnection of your body, mind, and spirit. “Now is the time to know that all you do is sacred.” -Hafiz
Becca Brown, Licensed Massage Therapist
Becca Brown
Becca moved to Denver from Baltimore after receiving a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and Conflict Resolution. After years of contemplating what career would truly be fulfilling, she came across the Massage Therapy Institute of Colorado and quickly fell in love with the healthy environment and the lifestyle of wellness.
Becca has a passion for studying human anatomy and loves to calm the nervous system. She really enjoys guiding clients to a meditative state where they can be more aware of what is going on in their body and less preoccupied with the stresses of life. She has been trained in a wide variety of massage practices, but her specialties are deep tissue and neuromuscular trigger point therapy. Her goal for each session is to personalize the massage to fit what the client is looking for. In her spare time, she enjoys throwing a frisbee, biking, reading, and drawing.
Sarah Antonucci, Licensed Massage Therapist
Sarah was born in Michigan and raised outside of Boulder, Colorado. Growing up in such a health-conscious community, her wellness journey began at a young age. Sarah dove deeply into yoga at the at of 14 and has since brought the moving meditation of vinyasa into many aspects of her life. In 2015, she traveled to Bali, Indonesia to complete her 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training. Compelled by her training to seek out more knowledge on anatomy and how the body operates, Sarah attended the Massage Therapy Institute of Colorado in 2018.
In a typical session, you can experience how Sarah’s training has contributed to her bodywork style, incorporating passive/active stretches, myofascial release, sports techniques, and structural integration into every massage. Her goal is to personalize each session to the client’s specific body, working on moving away from chronic pain patterns to promote ease, physically and mentally.
As well as working at a career that she loves, Sarah also enjoys skiing, cooking, attending live music, and spending as much time in the wilderness as possible.
Office Staff
Kate Pulliam, Office Manager
Kate Pulliam
Kate Pulliam attended The University of Texas at San Antonio with a major in Healthcare Management. She has been managing Chiropractic offices for over 8 years and has a true passion for seeing patients heal naturally and experience all that Chiropractic can do for the body. She was introduced to Chiropractic care when her daughter (who was 3 at the time) was facing a sinus surgery. Not wanting her child to undergo such an invasive surgery at such a young age, she visited a Chiropractor on a friend’s urging. Her daughter experienced immediate relief and with a carefully followed treatment plan was healed and no longer needed the surgery. She was hooked at that point.
Heather Key, Billing Manager
Heather Key
Heather Key has been a billing specialist and in office management for over 10 years. Her specialty is in chiropractic billing and personal injury cases. She was born and raised in Colorado. Heather is a busy mom of 2 children as well as 3 fur babies. When she is not busy with her kids’ activities, Heather can be found enjoying Colorado outdoors, traveling or at the gym.
She has always had a passion for the healing arts of chiropractic care and has seen many miracles come from it. One moment that’s ingrained in Heather’s memory is an older gentleman who came to LoHi Chiropractic as a last resort. After just a month of care, you would’ve thought that he was dipped in the fountain of youth. His entire demeanor changed and seeing that made my heart happy and reminded me of why I’m here. That man’s only regret was that chiropractic healing should’ve been his first resort and not his last.
Taylor Sturm, Patient Educator

A recent transplant to the Denver area, she is very excited to continue working in a field that she is so passionate about.
