Through the art of therapeutic touch, I am committed to helping all people experience deeper levels of health, peace, and well-being. With every client, I aim to form a healing partnership that promotes positive transformation on every level. I have learned the importance of listening to each client’s expressed needs and goals, along with the voice of the body itself. Whether you have physical pain, mental-emotional stress, or your spirit simply needs rejuvenation, I will tailor a session to address your individual needs and goals.

My approach to bodywork is strongly intuitive, yet grounded by 12 years of hands-on experience and technical knowledge of the body and it’s energy centers. My massage is best described as a silent conversation between my hands and the body, guided by my internal awareness and your feedback. I use slow “listening” strokes, stretching,
unwinding, energy work, and breath to create openness and release restrictions. I aim to guide people to a peaceful state of stillness and relaxation. I have found that the body’s innate intelligence (yours and my own) will tell me where to work and what to do. 

I believe that safe, therapeutic touch is a transmission of healing energy (a.k.a. love and grace); it awakens the heart and vitalizes the life force within us. It helps us remember what it is to feel good, and feel like ourselves again. Through touch, we are supported-by and connected-to another...which is a basic, primal need for everyone. Without words, compassionate touch can say “I am here for you” and “I accept you just the way you are”. This creates an opening for change and healing to occur, allowing us to release what no longer serves us, and transcend suffering in an instant.

I am here to serve through hands and heart, for the benefit of all beings.
