Meet Your Therapist
Hi, I’m Ryan Threatt—licensed massage therapist and founder of 3T Wellness Massage & Bodywork. I specialize in restorative bodywork focused on pain relief, mobility, and helping clients feel truly at home in their bodies.
Beyond massage therapy, I’m certified in Health Education and Coaching, with a Master’s in Community Health and Human Sciences from UAB. My passion lies in guiding people toward their best selves—physically, mentally, and holistically.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me hanging out with my rottie Willow, making art and music, or getting lost in a good series. Wellness is my calling, and I’m here to help you feel better, move better, and live better.
My full story..
Born in Sylacauga, Alabama. Built from Experience.
I grew up in a tight-knit family full of love, laughter, and a little chaos — the kind that teaches you resilience and compassion early on. I moved to Birmingham for college and never left. This city became my canvas for community health, advocacy, and personal growth. I’ve worn many hats — from mental health counselor to public health educator — but every role pointed me toward one truth: I was meant to help people heal.
The Fire That Never Went Out
Even when I didn’t know how I’d help others, I knew I had to. That fire — the drive to serve, uplift, and empower — never dimmed. It led me through years of clinical work, outreach, and education, until I discovered the profound impact of therapeutic touch. Massage therapy became the vessel that could hold all my skills, all my heart, and all my purpose.
The Vision of 3T
3T Wellness is more than bodywork.
It’s a community.
A frequency.
A beacon of home.
3T is a spin on my last name (Threatt) and also stands for Threatt Therapeutic Touch — a name rooted in my identity and my mission. The vision is simple: create a space where people feel safe to heal, empowered to grow, and supported in their journey toward wellness. Every detail — from the service menu to the client experience — is crafted with intention and care.
From Advocate to Healer
My background in mental health, cognitive counseling, and public health taught me how to listen deeply, communicate clearly, and advocate fiercely. Now, as a massage therapist, I bring those same skills to the table — literally. I don’t just work on muscles; I work with people. I see the whole person, and I honor their story..
Lessons Along the Way
Working alongside Wellness Instructors taught me the deep connections between:
The nervous system and regulation
The power of emotions
How stress impacts our organs, structure, and chemistry
Through this work, I began to heal myself. And with that healing came a greater vision, to create a system that could help others do the same.
The Power of Touch
Massage school deepened that vision. I witnessed how touch could shift someone’s entire presence, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. It’s how we soothe, connect, and communicate when words fall short. In my practice, touch becomes a tool for relief, release, and renewal. Whether you’re managing chronic pain, recovering from stress, or simply seeking balance, therapeutic touch can be a bridge back to yourself.
The 3T Wellness Approach
3T Wellness bridges two worlds:
clinical knowledge with intuitive techniques to create a massage experience that’s both effective and deeply personal
Kinetic science of movement, anatomy, and body mechanics
Together, they form a holistic system, a living testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
My Offering to You
3T Wellness is not just a business.
It is my life’s work.
A sanctuary for all people.
A space to heal, to reconnect, and to rise stronger than before.
