My Story

I began my massage therapy business in 2010 after in the cosmetic industry for 7 years as a skincare specialist and make-up artist. While working in the beauty industry I learned that I loved having that one on one connection as I preformed mini-facials, hand and arm massages, and make-up applications. It was a very nurturing experience to see the look of relaxation and nirvana on my clients faces, and their appreciating for my intuitive touch. So I left cosmetic sales and got my massage therapy license at the Fair Oaks Massage institute and began working in Sacramento, and then in 2011 the Bay Area (Walnut Creek and San Francisco). Massage therapy is a truly fascinating field as it is the frontier phase of being recognized for its' medical legitimacy. Massage is an ever expansive field that keeps my curious mind alive and drives my passion as new studies come out and special ways of treating complex body disorders and injuries that to profoundly impact my clients life.

I treat clients from all walks of life and all ages from children to the elderly; from Olympic athletes to sedentary professionals, disabled, and people with a variety of special needs. My practice is a judgment free and a confidential (HIPPA compliant) environment, Whatever issues you will come into my door with I will design a custom treatment plan to bring wellness, relaxation, and recovery from injury or pain. I treat a variety of conditions but the most common are Sciatica, iliopsoas syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and rotator cuff injuries. I also treat general stress, chronic pain, muscle tension and nerve entrapments

I specialize in Deep Tissue/Clinical/Sports massage but I am also talented at Swedish, Lomi Lomi, Hot Stone, Tai, Prenatal, Myofascial realease therapy.
