New York State Licensed Massage Therapist since 2011. Member, American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA).  The most attractive thing to me about a career in massage is the ability to help relieve people's pain and mobility ailments while at the same time providing the side benefit of stress relief and mental relaxation. I attended SUNY Columbia-Greene Community College where I obtained my massage degree.  I regularly take continuing education courses to maintain and update my knowledge and skills. Techniques I utilize are Swedish massage, Deep Tissue massage, Orthopedic massage, Shiatsu massage, Hot Stone massage, and Sports massage. You can find me working at Excel Physical Therapy in Coxsackie, New York. Hobbies and interests I enjoy are horsemanship (riding, roping, etc.) and enjoying time with family and friends.
