A broken record anecdote I like to share: when I was a little kid, the tradeoff was- I'd rub my mom's feet, then I could draw on them with markers!  Back then, my now late carpenter grandfather would have me rub his neck and shoulders while we watched home construction shows. By the time I was in middle school, I realized I seemed to detect the pain and stress others felt. By high school, I was that kid who'd randomly ask someone if they needed a hug, and it turned out they did. In college (while exploring the possibility of Elementary Education), I started a group on campus called, "I Need A Massage!" as a way to casually incorporate some care for my peers. The industry and craft of massage therapy has been a fulfilling route to embark upon over the past decade. Fresh out the gates of massage school, I was bringing chair massage to places such as McCormick Place for multiple conventions, Bridal Expo at The Metropolitan in Chicago, as well as many schools and local businesses.  Currently, I divide my time between a franchise spa, chiropractic office, and these independent mobile events! In-home massage is available as well.
