I began my journey with massage and bodywork in 2004.
I am both a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) of 20 years, and a Certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist (MLD-C).
Since 2001 my professional background has been in the field of psychology. I understood that healing touch was invaluable to a path forward for a mind and body seeking to heal, so I sought to learn all I could to share this healing across the lifespan.
Hoping to bring back to clients ways to gently support body movements focused on increasing flexibility and balance, I traveled to Trimbakeshwar, India where I studied Yoga Sopan, Yoga Parichaya, and Yoga Pravesh.
I studied pre and perinatal massage therapy with the intention of supporting expectant mothers and the life within, through their journey growing together.
In 2005 and 2021 I studied Infant Massage with Infant Massage USA and the International Association of Infant Massage (IAIM).
In addition to individually focused therapeutic bodywork, I offer therapeutic massage and bodywork guidance to partners through couple massage workshops.
My primary focus is on meeting others where they are, be it in seeking pain relief or stress-reduction and relaxation.
For those seeking pain relief, I work to assist in alleviating pain and holding patterns in the body through use of Trigger Point Therapy and methods of Myofascial Release. We work together with Swedish and/or Lymphatic Drainage techniques to provide for circulatory support, rest, relaxation, and stress-reduction. Manual Lymphatic Drainage also benefits the immune system and supports detoxification of the body.
My clients and I work as team to address short and long term goals.
I believe it's important to give ourselves and our loved ones every opportunity to thrive, and know massage and bodywork to be of these gifts. I remain grateful to work with clients on their journey towards peaceful healing.
