About Bianca Rivera, LMT
My Journey into Wellness:
I started out as a receptionist, and eventually office manager at Washington Heights Wellness, Riverdale Holistic Center, and Women’s Holistic Center. On paper it was an admin job. But really, I was surrounded by healing every single day. I got to know the patients, heard their stories, and watched them transform through acupuncture and holistic therapies.
