I have been a massage therapist since 2000, and am certified as a Structural Integration Therapist in Kinesis Myofascial Integration (KMI). I have advanced therapeutic training in a variety of techniques including myofascial release, visceral manipulation, trigger point, neuromuscular therapy, Seitai Shiatsu, Tuina, and Thai massage. In 2014, I completed a 135-hour training program in Complete Decongestive Therapy ​through the Norton School of Lymphatic Therapy providing lymphedema patients with ​lymphedema management through manual lymph drainage and complete decongestive therapy.​ With this wide range of training and experience, I am able to tailor integrated approaches to clients seeking life long physical health and emotional well-being. I enjoy combining Eastern and Western techniques to relieve pain, optimize range of motion, and create a sense of well-being and deep relaxation. I am committed to enhancing the quality of life for all through an open mind, deep compassion, and directed touch. I am bilingual in Japanese and English and have been able to provide interpretation/translation services in a wide variety of subjects ranging from anatomy/bodywork to wildlife biology and conservation to children's theater. I hope to see you soon!
