Massage Specialist
CurrentI takes a holistic approach to your health, simply meaning, he takes ALL of you into account.Your body, your mind, your emotions, and your spirit; These are not separate things to be dealtwith one at a time. You are a unified whole. Every part of you influences the rest.I have worked 14 years as a massage therapist and holistic health coach; the last 8 years I havebeen working with a chiropractic office as part of their pain management team and provided services to those working through injuries and rehabilitation.Therapeutic bodywork: I work primarily with the facias and connective tissues of the body, alsoknown as soft tissue work. I incorporate several different modalities and techniques such asShiatsu, acupressure, trigger point therapy, Cranial Sacral holds, myofascial stretch/release,myofascial manipulation, energy work and active movement and stretching. I have had greatsuccess with fibromyalgia, chronic headaches/migraines, TMJ, upper and lower back chronic pain, plantar fasciitis, post-surgery recovery, joint pain, carpal tunnel, vertigo, and tinnitus. Thework is gentle and non-invasive yet penetrates deep into the problem area(s) and has lastingeffects, especially when paired with a regular stretching regime.I use tapotement, experience and intuition as he works to figure out where to start and what to work towards to help find balance for each person's specific needs. Much of my work is done througha sheet, which provides warmth and a good "grip" for me as a therapist and provides a heightened sense of privacy for the client. I can work directly on the skin when needed and with limited amounts ofoil.I am now practicing Transformational Breath Work.
