Hi, I'm Darlene and I'm glad you found me! Clients seek me out to help reduce the root causes of pain and dysfunction, manage stress, and increase energy with myofascial release therapy, yoga, birth workshops and cellular activation.  

I've always loved solving complex problems and during my 12 years as a mechanical engineer, teaching yoga on the side to keep me balanced and calm, I discovered my bigger passion for personal connection and optimizing health. Always a perpetual student and feeling guided on my holistic wellness path, I studied yoga, breath practices and meditation, pregnancy and birth support, and when I retired from engineering in 2008, I launched my wellness business and graduated as a licensed massage therapist. 

I’ve since completed over 250 hours of advanced Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) training with John F. Barnes and earned specialty certifications in prenatal/postnatal and pediatric massage.

Let’s get you feeling better so you can do what you love without accepting limitations due to fatigue, stiffness or pain.  Reach out for a FREE 15min consultation or schedule your first session today!  I look forward to serving you…

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Jennifer on Jun 03
I am a massage therapist myself, and have an old injury that I have been trying to resolve. I can honestly say that Darlene is one of the best massage therapists I have encountered in almost 15 years in the field! Go see her, you won't be disappointed

Very relaxing. Tension melted away.

I went to Darlene the other day for my initial Myofascial Release Therapy session and I left feeling great! Darlene took the time to listen to me describe my specific symptoms and then came up with a treatment plan to address the issues. She knew exactly what she was doing and clearly explained everything to me as she did it. I have another appointment already scheduled with her.

Darlene created a very warm and welcoming presence and made me feel comfortable. She did great at addressing my needs and made my body feel very relaxed and worked out the tension. MFR is definitely a different type of massage than what I'm used to, but it felt really nice and I would highly recommend!

Darlene is amazing at what she does. She is very intuitive and understands how to best help me optimize my performance. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived.

Darlene is such a skilled practitioner and all around lovely person! She was successful in helping relieve pain behind my shoulder blade that has been nagging me for years. I had never had MFR therapy before, but had attended both pregnancy yoga and yoga for moms with Darlene, both of which were great. My back feels better than ever, and I can't wait for my next session!

I cannot recommend Darlene's prenatal myofascial release massage more highly. It's a definite different experience than a traditional massage, but I left with an increased feeling of movement and freedom in my body. I felt both immediate relief while she was working, and continued to feel a release in those tight spaces over the next two days. I felt so good after and could tell it was incredibly helpful that I immediately scheduled 3 more sessions with her! Highly highly recommend! Also, the space is welcoming and warm, Darlene's energy is calming and confident! Overall, cannot say enough good things!

Darlene is excellent at what she does and you leave there better then when you entered.
by Anonymous on Feb 10
My first appointment was thorough and Darlene methods for releasing fascia helped me feel much better after my first appointment itself. Look forward to seeing here again soon.
