I have an Associate of Applied Science in Massage Therapy degree and a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training certification, as well as the skills and experience I’ve gained from continuing education workshops, hands-on bodywork and teaching yoga classes. These tools allow me to work in tandem with my clients and offer a customized massage at each session. I start by checking in with you to understand your goals for the session and how you’re feeling at that time to develop a plan for our time together. Throughout the session, questions and feedback from you are welcomed. I will check in regarding your comfort and if I have any questions I feel will help me provide a better experience. The massage I offer is therapeutic and involves working with the nervous system. Therefore, I start with a more gentle approach and work deeper as the body allows as I’m working toward ease and avoiding pain. The work is meant to engage the body’s natural ability to heal and self-correct. This approach often allows me to work at much deeper layers with minimal to no discomfort.
