Massage therapy came into my life after an injury to my shoulder in college basketball. Dealing with this injury for a couple of years and being stuck in an injury cycle I came across someone who finally told me that I just needed a massage due to tightness in and around my shoulder. This the first time I understood that a massage could be therapeutic and realized how much I was missing as an athlete. My main goal is to assist athletes in proper recovery, learn about what is happening to them and understand there are options to get through a season. Though my primary focus is athletes I believe anyone whose looking to break themselves of repeated pain patterns and find relief to body stiffness will benefit.
