I am a native Oregonian born and raised here. I love being out in nature and traveling whenever possible. I have always been drawn to holistic health therapies growing up so it only seemed natural to become a massage therapist when I was older. I decided to get my education at East West College of the Healing Arts here in Portland, Oregon where I graduated from in 2014. I can't speak highly enough of the school and the wonderful staff there.
I like being able to help people discover the benefits of getting massage regularly. Everyone should have the opportunity to relax, reduce pain, and just let the stress melt away even if it’s just for an hour. My specialty is pain management and assisting with recovery from injury. A general treatment will consist of what has been referred to as a "heavy handed Swedish Sports Massage" which will be customized for each client depending on what the client is requesting for the treatment session. By setting up a treatment plan with my clients I can help them manage their pain and recover from injury in as little time as possible. I incorporate a variety of Eastern and Western massage techniques into a treatment session depending on what I feel might benefit each individual client. Upon request I also like to use Aromatherapy with Doterra therapeutic grade essential oils to enhance the effects of the massage.
Everyone is in physical pain at some point in there life. Whether its from a car accident, sports injury, or just chronic pain low back and neck pain from too much time at the computer. The modalities I use work well for a wide variety of people. Everyone is different and your massage should be tailored to your individual needs. Having several modalities to choose from makes it easier for me to customize your massage.

800 Hour Massage Therapy Program
A complete Reiki session is generally performed in comfortable, relaxing environment such as on a massage table or seated comfortably in a chair. The length of the session can vary from a couple minutes on a focus area or up to an hour or more depending on what the clients needs are. The recipient remains fully clothed. Most commonly, Reiki is offered through light, non-invasive touch with the practitioner's hands placed and held on a series of locations on the head and front and back of the torso. The placement of the hands should never be intrusive or inappropriate, nor should there be any pressure other then the gentle weight of the therapist's hands. Additional placements on the limbs can be done as needed (for example, if there is an injury or surgical scar), and some practitioners routinely do so. The Reiki practitioner can hold her hands just off the body if needed (for example, in the presence of an open wound or burn), and some practitioners always offer Reiki in this way.
