My goal is always to communicate effectively with patients to ensure the actual outcome of the treatment is aligned with their goals, and co-creating comprehensive treatment plans with patients based on their desired outcomes. My approach to massage therapy is intuitive and based on a solid understanding of anatomy, physiology, and effective treatment techniques to promote whole-body wellness. Each treatment is as unique as the person receiving it and treatments will be readily adjusted to meet any need or request. I am a strong believer that each individual knows themself best and I gratefully welcome patients’ guidance to what feels right to ensure a feeling of safety, security, and relaxation. I use a variety of techniques during my treatments, some of which include myofascial release, trigger point therapy, neuromuscular therapy, joint mobilizations, deep tissue, and Swedish techniques, and blending them smoothly together to address specific complaints, or just to create a wonderfully soothing and relaxing massage. I welcome people of all backgrounds, body types and lifestyles with an open mind and heart as I have a deep respect for individual circumstances, treating all patients with equality and compassion. In my downtime, I enjoy playing the viola as I am passionate about music, having been classically trained since early childhood. Otherwise, I also enjoy being an outdoorsy person and can be frequently found hiking, scuba diving, or cycling.
