In my approach to holistic health, I blend Western and Eastern massage influences with Wellness consulting.  I’m inspired by creating a calm and safe space for those with the goal of pain reduction, stress management, or increasing mobility and quality of life.

I am certified in Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Thai massage therapy, Yoga, and Wellness Consulting.  I have worked with a wide variety of Health and Wellness professionals including chiropractors, physical therapists, naturopaths, and movement therapists. I have distilled my life’s experiences into one main idea~ that when given the proper environment to thrive, the body has an amazing ability to heal and activate its own immune system. I have been shown this consistently.  Maintaining and improving mobility remains one of my greatest passions.

I consider myself lucky to have experienced a few years of living in Japan, where I was profoundly inspired by the healing and martial arts, the sense of calmness and beauty of the culture. I often draw upon these memories in creating a peaceful space.

I feel it is a team collaboration to create a healing space. When I work with a client, I feel I  learn and receive just as much from them as they do from me. I believe we already have everything inside of us needed to move forward into our BEST selves.

How can I best be of service to remind you of this ?
