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

In 2005 I had the privilege of studying with very advanced practitioners in a beautiful school where I later taught in 2006-2007. I have taught over 2000 yoga classes since then.

Happy has a sweet & unique approach to Thai massage- blending traditional techniques with fun, innovative approaches, making it entirely his own creation. My body was aching post Burning Man and Happy put me back together again piece by piece. He's amazing!

Happy has the best energy and leaves you feeling energized even if that's not how you walk in the door.

I have a serious back issue. I have had 3 surgeries- the last one was a 2 - day procedure that involved fusing my spine from my waist to my upper back. I basically don't bend and am having a great deal of left hip pain that's cropped up all summer long that's been unrelenting. I've been getting physical therapy all summer, even had a cortisone shot, with no relief. One session with Happy and I feel totally different! I am writing this the evening after my appointment and I am still pain free and have a much larger range of motion! I highly admire his knowledge base for what he does. This man has a fine intuition for the body's needs as it speaks to him and I'd highly recommend him!

Happy really gets to the root of the issue. I came to him with concerns around numbing hands and nerve pain in my forearms and in about 1 month, I am 90% better and still improving!

Happy provides a wonderful healing experience with skilled healing touch. The fluidity of the session left me open, relaxed and happy :-)
