Ideally the ultimate retreat is to retreat from the past and the future, to always remain in the present-Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

The heart of my work is rooted in the body’s innate ability to heal itself. My role is a facilitator of the body’s natural and amazing healing abilities by applying Therapeutic-Healing modalities so that the person can start to merge the physical, emotional, and mental body finding deep connection and ease. 
I began my career performing, teaching and studying dance and movement for 25 years. Fascinated with Anatomy and Physiology of movement, I wanted to deepen my knowledge and transitioned into various Massage and Bodywork modalities. I graduated from the New School For Massage, Bodywork, and Healing-Chicago in 2005. After a couple of years working with clients I felt the pull to deepen my knowledge and moved to the foothills of the Himalayas in India to study Yoga, Meditation, and Buddhist and Yogic traditions. I immersed myself in Hatha, Ashtanga, and Yoga therapy. I completed Yoga teacher training certifications from Mount Madonna-Watsonville CA, Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Dhanwantari Ashram-Kerala India, and YogaPoint-Yoga Vidya Gurukul-nasik India where I studied Yoga therapy and Yoga for Pregnancy. 
During a therapeutic massage session, I weave together an array of massage therapy modalities such as Deep Tissue Techniques, Swedish, Pregnancy Massage, Postpartum Massage, Myofascial release, Sports Massage, Thai Massage, Breath work, and Energy work techniques. My massage practice is tailored to each individual to  enhance optimal health and wellness and create a grounded healing environment to facilitate a space for deep relaxation and connection with self.
