As an ex-snowboard instructor who is now past 60 years old, I am very aware and conscious of body usage. In my opinion, therapeutic massage is invaluable in maintaining health, both mental and physical. I receive great satisfaction when my clients leave feeling deeply relaxed, invigorated and free from pain. That is why I love what I do.
I received my certification in Swedish Massage, Sports Massage, and Massage for Pregnant Women and Babies from the McKinnon Institute and my certification in Deep Bodywork from Esalen Institute. The training I received at Esalen was based fundamentally on the work of Dr. Ida Rolf and integrated with an Esalen-style massage. By slowly entering and manipulating the body's deeper soft-tissue layers, a complete restructuring on a molecular level of the total system can happen, thus supporting the body's natural tendency to self-heal.
Depending on the request and requirements of my clients, I incorporate various styles to provide a safe and comforting environment for healing via touch. I look forward to working with you and hope that you will consider therapeutic massage as your regular maintenance plan for health.
