I am a curious person with a fascination for learning about people, new places, and how things work. Having a wide array of interests, including music, geography, and language study, landing on a career in massage therapy didn’t happen overnight, but it had always been a possibility in the back of my mind. As other paths I tried didn’t seem to fit, the opportunity arose for me to pursue training at the National Holistic Institute, a premier college of massage therapy. With a clear vision and renewed motivation, I seized the opportunity and haven’t looked back. As a certified massage therapist, I know how the body works and how to manipulate its soft tissues to alleviate pain and tension, but  beyond that, I want to introduce my clients to a genuine spirit of healing through caring touch and meaningful human connection. Providing therapeutic massage to foster well-being and facilitate healing is a sacred honor for me, and I sincerely care for all whom I serve.My bodywork style is based in soothing Swedish massage, which utilizes gliding, kneading, and friction techniques. I incorporate deep tissue, including myofascial and trigger point therapy, along with some mild stretching and movement of the joints. I tend to work slowly and with a firm hand, thus providing maximum therapeutic benefit yet also deep relaxation.
