My professional journey started with a curiosity of how the body works. This led me to the massage industry.

I graduated from the Ohio College of Massotherapy (OCM) in Akron, Ohio with an Associate's Degree in Applied Science and Massotherapy. I then attended and graduated from the Fortis Institute in Scranton, PA with another Massage Therapy diploma under my belt. My education and skill level include Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular Therapy and Myoskeletal Alignment Technique or MAT. A mouth full I know.

Over the years I have learned to combine my skills of assessing and treating body asymmetry, fascial restrictions, active trigger points, restricted range of motion and muscle hypertrophy/atrophy with basic Swedish massage.

Together creating the perfect blend. Thus, I developed the Alter Massage.

A blend of adjusted pressures and techniques and the healing power of touch tailored to your specific need.

My mission is to provide you with the best relaxing and therapeutic massage experience in a safe and relaxing environment. Alter your mind, body and soul. So, you can get back to being you again.
