A registered massage therapist and licensed body mapping educator, my path to
manual therapy began as a professional cellist experiencing physical limitation and
discomfort firsthand. My healing journey first inspired me to become a licensed Body
Mapping educator, helping fellow musicians correct faulty movement patterns.
After
discovering the benefits of NeuroKinetic Therapy (NKT) I furthered my education to
become a registered massage therapist and NKT practitioner.
My focus is to support your goals by targeting the root causes of dysfunction through
hands-on therapy and movement education.
In addition to NKT, I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities including Fascial Therapy,
Soft Tissue Release, Joint Mobilization, and Swedish techniques. My experience
includes working with clients who suffer from repetitive stress injuries, headaches, TMJ
disorders, postural dysfunction, and prenatal and postpartum conditions.
Treatments begin with a comprehensive assessment and home-care exercise to get
you feeling and moving better.
