I know where many people are coming from these days in this high tech, high stressed world of ours. I left a career where I was sitting at a desk all day long, staring at a computer screen, to pursue a field that would help people that were in the same situation as me - stressed out, sore muscles and uneducated about how to live a healthier lifestyle, thus becoming a Massage Therapist.
I bring 15+ years of therapeutic massage experience, from working in a spa setting, to over 10 years of work...
I know where many people are coming from these days in this high tech, high stressed world of ours. I left a career where I was sitting at a desk all day long, staring at a computer screen, to pursue a field that would help people that were in the same situation as me - stressed out, sore muscles and uneducated about how to live a healthier lifestyle, thus becoming a Massage Therapist.
I bring 15+ years of therapeutic massage experience, from working in a spa setting, to over 10 years of working at a wellness center with chiropractors, physical therapists, weight loss specialists, personal trainers and fellow massage therapists, and finally co-owning my own mobile chair massage business for the last 13 years for many well-known, local, corporate businesses in the Twin Cities metro area and Class A buildings in the downtown Minneapolis skyway system.
My goal with each client is to not only relieve the physical discomfort of their body, but to educate get them on how they can improve their well-being when they are outside of our clinic.
I customize each massage to fit your specific needs, which may include a combination of multiple modalities as well as active or resistive stretching:
Modalities:
- Swedish Massage

- New Beginnings Spa: 2005 - 2006 Massage Therapist
Training:

Personal:
I am married with two sons, and currently live in Rosemount. I grew up in Burnsville, so I am a lifetime resident of the south metro area. Aside from being an entrepreneur and running my own massage businesses, my interests include; hiking, biking, and running (a 3x full marathon runner, a dozen or so half marathons, and countless 10 mile, 10K and 5K races), so I am all too familiar with sports-related injuries. I also volunteer my passion for running to My Team Triumph-MN (runners for wheelchair-bound participants) and many other charity organized races.
I also enjoy utilizing my previous career of graphic design into recreational photography, videography and social media/web designs.
