Massage is my profession, not a hobby.

People always ask what got me started in massage. At age 20 I began getting chronic migraines. The doctor gave me medications and wanted to do a brain scan.

People always ask what got me started in massage. At age 20 I began getting chronic migraines. The doctor gave me medications and wanted to do a brain scan.

I was hooked. 

After massage school, I took many continuing education courses focusing on specific ailments and injuries. This passion for focused work led me to open my own massage office. Five years later, I have expanded to add a second therapist.

I feel like I receive a very therapeutic massage with emphasis on whatever specific areas that might be bothering me at each visit.

I had a really great 1st massage by Karen. Very professional, mindful of what I shared with her prior to the massage and felt energy move out of my body the next few days. I also felt parts of my body open up over the next few days which was great! Thank you!

Karen was very professional and friendly. Even as a new client, she was quick to put me at ease. Karen made every effort to promote a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. My massage was great!!! It was tailored to my specific needs and areas of pain. I could definitely tell a difference by the end of my massage. Thank you, Karen!

Karen did an amazing job! I walked out of my massage feeling so much better. She focused on the areas I needed her to focus on and it made a huge difference in how I’m able to move.
