I began my study in massage in 2008, and I fell in love. I fell in love with the art of touch. I fell in love with the human anatomy; how our muscles respond to everything we do, how we hold our emotions in our muscles, how manipulating the tissue can literally fix diseases and release so much more then just tension. I saw and felt my body change. I let go of so many things I had been holding on to. My anxiety decreased. My depression decreased. I felt better; stronger. And more importantly, I felt a power. A healing power that I was able to give. I helped people in real pain. I was able to "fix" their pain. And it was truly amazing. I was actually able to see the results, and I couldn't believe that I had ever lived without massage therapy in my life. I kept thinking, "Why don't more people know about this?" And I knew I was on a mission. A mission to bring the Healing Power of Touch to everyone, because EVERYONE needs it!

Since graduation, I have been able to work on many different bodies, and see so many changes; physically, emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually. I absolutely LOVE what I do. I am married to a wonderful man and we have four beautiful children. I love reading, dating my husband, movies, history, sunflowers, chocolate, the ocean, mountains, sunshine and rain, travelling, gardening, surprises, and supporting women. I have experienced myself a medicated hospital birth, scheduled surgical birth, and two VBAC Hypnobirths, as well as three miscarriages, which means I can empathize and relate to many different types of situations. I look forward to getting to know you and your individual needs and goals. I hope you learn something new, and come experience the Healing Power of Touch.
