I've been certified by the California Massage Therapy Council. My Certificate number is 725.  I have practiced Massage Therapy since 2003. I became a Access Consciousness Bars Practitioner in March of 2012.  I am a graduate of the Cumberland Institute’s 500-hour course in Holistic Massage Therapy, located just outside of Nashville, TN. The coursework included classes in Swedish massage, Integrative massage therapy, Kinesiology, Craniosacral massage, and Acupressure for massage. I have also taken courses in Access Consciousness Bars and other Access Consciousness Body Processes, Reiki, pre- and post-natal massage.

I believe massage can be customized to be suitable for many different preferences in what people want to achieve through massage. It can be equally beneficial applied at a lighter or deeper pressure, with a lot of active work or mostly still work. I always respect the boundaries and wishes of the recipient.

I decided to become a massage therapist because I have always had an interest in massage and I wanted to be in a career where I can help people along their journey to become happy and healthy. One of the rewards of my work is that people enjoy their appointments and feel better after a session.

In addition to massage and energy work. I am into knitting lace right now. I enjoy the combination of relaxation and concentration that it brings. I also have fun baking, gardening and spending time with family and friends.
