Tension Melting Movement Therapy and Relaxation Training

I'm Happy! In 2005 I started teaching yoga, and in 2008 a master bodyworker found me and taught me to listen to bodies unwinding in the pool. I taught myself to do it on land, and made my own modality called HappyShoulders. I would describe it making reference to thai massage, and because it was so unique and almost everyone has tight shoulders, people loved it. Eventually, I had to get legitimate, so I studied Thai Massage in depth, and now I use my unique HappyStretch Thai Massage to unwind...

I'm Happy! In 2005 I started teaching yoga, and in 2008 a master bodyworker found me and taught me to listen to bodies unwinding in the pool.

Eventually, I had to get legitimate, so I studied Thai Massage in depth, and now I use my unique HappyStretch Thai Massage to unwind and repattern your whole body! 

If you have old pain, chronic stress, or limited range of movement, I would love to make a huge difference in your life. For some people, I can do that in as little as one or two sessions. I teach people to let go, while making them more aware of their body. I also provide the classical thai massage benefits like someone "did yoga for you" and got you all relaxed, tuned in, and simultaneously energized. I get extremely good reviews, but am still building my business and could really use your help promoting to keep sharing my gift with the world.

Aquastretch Apprenticeship

George Eversaul, a 20+ year Doctor of Osteopathy, who taught many many other doctors, retired and made his own modality called Aquastretch. He found me teaching in the University of Nevada Las Vegas in 2008, had heard of my good reputation, and asked if he could teach me. I studied with him and learned to be skillful in his work and it became the foundation of my own. Visiting and training further with him in summer of 2019!

Reiki Master

Between 2006 and 2008 I studied Reiki to the level of Reiki Master under 7 masters. I used reiki in my early yoga teaching, and it continues to flow in all my bodywork.

Yoga

REVIEWS for my Bodywork, Yoga, or Wellness services

by Matt on Jan 11
My wife said she felt great afterwards and had several vertebrae that cracked and relieved a lot of pressure in her neck and the back of her head

Focuses on specific areas well, and is capable of hard pressure when needed.

During the massage, I realized how tense I was in so many area of my body, giving me the opportunity to relax into and soften those areas. The massage helped me release a lot of tension while increasing relaxation and range of motion.

I've had major pain in my feet and ankles for weeks and I've used other therapies, practitioners and even seen a pediatrist but to no avail. Happy really listened to me and got right in where the pain was and untangled the whole mess. Today I am pain free and so grateful!

I was in sooo much pain and he got my shoulders to re adjust and gave me excercises to do for my shoulders

This was a dream massage to say the least. The pushing and pulling on your body feels incredible. Incorporated movements and stretching got the internal, hard to reach places that most other massages seem to miss. Happy is very in tune with not only your body but human physique in general! Knew how far to take certain moves and was acutely conscious with my injured knee while still managing to give it a proper stretch. Also, Happy communicated often during the massage and asked for regular feedback. If I didn't live 25 hours away I would be a regular client. Thank you so much!
