my philosophy

For the past two decades, I have utilized massage therapy to help with my own chronic issues and injury recovery, and I understand the frustration and sadness that come from being in pain and not knowing how to treat it.
I was drawn to bodywork because I truly believe in the power of touch. Every body adapts and deals with pain in a different way - I am dedicated to learning and applying different techniques that can help eliminate pain or (at very least) alleviate the symptoms instead of ignoring them. Whether you are an athlete, desk worker or life just keeps throwing you curve balls, you deserve to be healthy and happy everyday.

Five years ago, I discovered the power of breath to aid in my digestive and autoimmune conditions. When I realized how integral the breath is to all vital functions, I started sharing tips with my massage clients and many had their own "Wow!" moments. I chose to dive down the breathwork rabbit hole, and after learning many modalities and practices, I decided it was my turn to share the power of functional breathwork with my clients. I am now a Certified Breath Coach through the Whole Health Project and an Oxygen Advantage Advanced Instructor. 

Whether we're working together on Body or Breath, I will use my knowledge of anatomy, kinesiology, respiration and more to assess and address the concerns I hear from you and your body. I empower my clients to understand their bodies and discover the most beneficial activities/self care options for their lifestyle. I am here to support you in living your best life, on your terms, and will do my best to give you the care and tools needed to keep you moving.
