As a Certified Pediatric Massage Therapists, I have experience working with children who have very special healthcare needs and medical conditions. In May 2014, I teamed with Children's Wisconsin to develop and implement its first-ever Pediatric Massage and Touch Therapy Program. This partnership ended unfortunately in the midst of the COVID19 pandemic.
In 2017, I received special training to work with cancer patients and survivors. In 2018, I initiated training in CranioSacral Therapy with The Upledger Institute. To date, I have completed Level I and II and recently completed Somatic Emotional Release training as part of the The Upledger Institute's Core Curriculum. I am excited to continue my journey towards certification with special focus in pediatric CranioSacral Therapy.
Further, KANNAI Therapeutic Massage LLC is an approved vendor with IRIS and the Children's Long-Term Support Waiver Programs providing therapeutic massage services for qualified adults and children under the Wisconsin Medicaid Program.
