I am a Registered Massage Therapist with over 20 years of extensive experience in manual therapy.
I specialize in a variety of treatments, however the ones I use most are joint mobilization, trigger point release and deep tissue work. I have been practicing these techniques for over a decade and have developed some of my own unique approaches to them.  

I enjoy every aspect of my work but derive special satisfaction from the clients that challenge my abilities, both intellectually and physically. Each experience teaches me something about how to improve my techniques and bring them forward into subsequent treatments.

Highly recommend! Dora is a caring and professional massage therapist who takes the time to assess your individual needs and customizes a very effective therapeutic treatment plan.

Dora is a very skilled & professional RMT. She was very communicative, listened well to my concerns and made sure that I was comfortable at every step of the way. And I felt fantastic after my 90 minute massage!

I've been going to Dora for years. She goes above and beyond to make me comfortable and is super knowledgeable with anything that shows up in my body.

Dora went above and beyond to take the time to assist me with my health needs. Highly recommend!
by Jesse on Mar 08
Dora is complete pro in every way. I especially appreciated her in-depth questions and exploration to get to the bottom of my issue. Her work in the session was exactly what I needed and the follow-up program she created for me was extensive and well-thought out. A wonderful experience that I will be returning to.

This was the best experience- Dora is the consummate professional and is very skilled - she is mindful of pressure and identifying exactly what is causing pain and discomfort. She followed up with exercises and stretches that supported the work she did on the table. Her space is private and comfortable.

Dora is a very caring, thorough and sensitive practitioner. Dora treated my 11 year old daughter and she took very good care in explaining the process, assessing and treating her pain and following up. Highly recommended.

I've been to many practitioners before but Dora was able to pinpoint the root cause of my symptoms that hadn't been brought to my attention by others before. Dora went a half hour over time to ensure she completed the treatment I needed and also goes above and beyond by providing you with an at home aftercare package including everything discussed and what to do to further treat the root cause on your own. Her office is clean, welcoming, she is professional and makes you feel comfortable the entire assessment and treatment. I would highly recommend Dora and I’m confident I’ll be pain and headache free soon!

Dora is very professional and has a great depth of experience. She is also very skilled. Her protocols around airborne illness are science-informed and comforting. She has great follow-up.
