My journey as a massage therapist began with my own experience navigating chronic pain. After years of searching for relief, I discovered the profound impact of therapeutic bodywork. That experience not only changed my life—it inspired me to help others find relief in their own bodies. Now, as a licensed massage therapist, I specialize in working with chronic pain, injury recovery, autoimmune conditions, and complex medical cases , including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Multiple Sclerosis, POTS, and other nervous system and connective tissue disorders. I also provide care for prenatal and postpartum clients, geriatric clients, and pediatric massage , tailoring each session to meet the unique needs of every individual. My approach is simple: your body already knows how to heal—I’m just here to listen and support. I believe that lasting relief comes not from forcing change or pushing through pain but from working with the body, creating space for it to restore balance on its own terms. My work is gentle yet highly effective , using precise, therapeutic techniques that respect the body's natural limits rather than imposing force. I integrate a variety of specialized modalities, including Visceral Manipulation, Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Reflexology, Oncology Massage, Deep Tissue, Swedish Massage, and targeted stretching techniques. Visceral Manipulation has been a powerful addition to my work, helping to restore natural movement and communication between the body’s organs, fascia, and nervous system. This approach has been profoundly effective for chronic pain, digestive issues, postural imbalances, and nervous system dysregulation —all by working with the body instead of against it . As Jean-Pierre Barral, the founder of Visceral Manipulation, said, "You don’t fix the body; you help the body fix itself." By blending these modalities, I take a multifaceted, evidence-based approach that aligns with the body's natural rhythms rather than forcing change. Every session is designed to be intuitive, effective, and deeply supportive , helping clients reconnect with their bodies and experience lasting relief. I know firsthand what it’s like to feel stuck in pain, and I also know that healing is possible. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or simply looking to feel more at home in your body, I will meet you exactly where you are—with care, compassion, and a deep respect for your journey.
