I specialize in helping active individuals and people in pain move better, feel stronger, and break chronic pain patterns that haven’t responded to traditional massage or rehab.

My work is not a “feel-good rubdown.” Each session is a clinical, results-focused approach combining Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT), targeted manual therapy, nervous system regulation, movement retraining, and lymphatic support.

Instead of chasing symptoms, I assess how your brain and body are compensating, then correct faulty movement patterns that keep pain coming back. Clients often experience improvements in range of motion, nervous system regulation, and pain levels, with longer lasting results over a series of sessions.

This work is ideal for:

Chronic or recurring pain
Old injuries that never fully healed
Athletes and active individuals with movement limitations
Post-surgical recovery patients
People who feel “stuck” despite trying massage, chiropractic, or physical therapy

Every session is customized. No protocols. No one size fits all. Just strategic work designed to help your body function better, fast.

I draw on a diverse toolkit to address neuromuscular imbalances and enhance movement, including:

Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT): Identifying and correcting dysfunctional movement patterns.
Lymphatic Stimulation: Supporting your body’s natural detoxification and recovery processes.
Diaphragm Breathing Techniques: Enhancing core stability and overall function.
Manual Tissue Work: Relieving tension and restoring mobility.

My ultimate goal is to help you move better, feel better, and empower you with tools you can use at home for your own rehabilitation. Let’s get started on your path to pain-free movement!

Conditions I have treated: Frozen Shoulder, Plantar Fasciitis, Tennis Elbow, Sciatic Nerve Pain, Tendinitis, Back Pain, Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Knee Pain, Systemic Inflammation.

"If you’re looking for a traditional, relaxing massage, Valerie might not be the right fit. But if you’re seeking a transformative experience with techniques like myofascial release, nerve release, and hands-on collaboration to not only feel good but also move better, she’s incredible. Valerie is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and takes the time to truly understand your injuries and challenges. She’s dedicated to helping you not just feel better, but function better in your daily life. I’d describe her as a unique blend of an athletic trainer, physical therapist, and massage therapist. I highly recommend her!"

"Val has been amazing in helping me recover from some minor injuries I had. The real value I get from my visits is the time she takes to find the cause of my injuries and provide me activities and stretches to strengthen problem areas and prevent these injuries from resurfacing. I have learned to listen to my body more and have seen improvements in the gym and daily life I didn't think I could achieve.
Val makes my recovery a priority over just having me be a repeat customer with some multi-visit package. I always recommend her to friends and family."
