Atouch Story
Atouch Story
Started in 1998
Started in 1998
Denise Bechtloff is the owner and founder of Alternative Touch. The small wellness clinic began in 1998 and slowly grew from a home based business, to a strip mall to its current location in the heart of Beaumont. Atouch has gone through many phases over the past 26 years. Growing, learning and constantly evolving to keep up with progressive demands that owning a small business brings, Denise decided to alter the busy clinic once more! Housing 10 therapists, the clinic is now called Alternative Touch Professional Center. The decision was brought upon partly due to the current events of the world. Covid has struck down many a good business and in order to help keep all therapists thriving, each are now independent within the center. This means EACH therapist is their own boss with complete control over their own funds/costs and decisions in running their practice, Denise (Queen Of Mean) included. The therapists all look forward to continuing their exemplary service to the most important people of all, you! We could not have accomplished this all without you and we look forward to seeing you soon!
