My journey in massage started in 2007 when I signed up with the North Carolina School of Massage and Natural Health. The school was forced to close at the mid point of our program. After a few years I was finally able to attend and graduate from The Center for Massage and Natural Healing in 2013. I had been wanting to be a Massage Therapist for a long time and was so excited to be moving into a career space that was more in line with who I am. 

         My initial training involved the standard modalities of Swedish Massage and Deep Tissue Massage in the form of Trigger Point Therapy. Since then I have gravitated towards less aggressive techniques to elicit better responses with less pain. These include a number of Myofascial release modalities, Positional Release, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), and anything else I can wrap my mind around or figure out through experience. It is all about nuance and information.

        My sessions are rooted in what my clients want and what their bodies need. I do believe in the saying "When all you have is a hammer, everything becomes a nail". While I do have a "hammer", I have lots of other tools as well. I revel in the opportunity to use all of my tools in helping as many people as I can to find ease and grace and a better understanding of their bodies.
