I have been in practice as a Licensed Massage Therapist since graduating from Spa Tech Institute’s Deep Tissue/Therapeutic Massage program in 2007. Understanding there is a deep, energetic aspect to bodywork, I went on to receive my Associate Polarity Practitioner training at Spa Tech Institute in 2008. My passion for bodywork and natural curiosity with the human body continued to grow as I gained experience, and I was again called back to academia. I was curious to learn more about the injuries, faulty movement patterns, and underlying causes of dysfunction I was presented with daily while working with patients. In 2009, my insatiable curiosity led me on the long, but worthwhile journey to receiving my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of New England. I matriculated into the DPT program after obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Athletic Training/Sports Medicine from the University of Southern Maine.  Throughout my training, I gained clinical experience at many area high schools, colleges, hospitals and physical therapy clinics, while simultaneously running a successful massage practice. With each experience, my love for bodywork deepened, and kept me grounded and focused during the most challenging times of my life.  I speak from the heart when I say, “Massage is my first love,” and, “If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life.” I look forward to sharing my knowledge, love of bodywork, and passion for aiding patients along their healing pathway.
