My path to massage therapy began when I healed a running injury through my yoga practice. I was very intrigued by muscles and how they create or inhibit our movement and so I went on to became a Certified Massage Therapist and Health Educator at National Holistic Insitute in San Jose, CA. There I studied eastern and western modalities as well as anatomy, kinesiology, phisiology and pathology. After graduating, I returned to NHI to become an Advanced Neuromuscular Therapist with over 1300 hours of training.
We hold the power to heal ourselves; I am only the conduit for change. I am trained in and incorporate many modalities into each session to give you the best treatment possible, including Swedish, deep tissue, shiatsu, myofascial therapy, durmoneuromodulation (durmo=skin, neuro=nerves, modulation=change), trigger point therapy and neuromuscular massage. I love to help my clients overcome postural issues and chronic pain that they believed might only be remedied with surgical procedures. It is very rewarding to watch their attitudes change from session to session.
In addition to yoga, I enjoy reading, traveling, and working in my garden. I plan to travel the world and help people through massage.
