My training in Swedish, manual lymph drainage, neuromuscular trigger point therapy, and myofascial massage gives me the tools to provide either a therapeutic or a relaxation experience, or a blend of both. I strive to create a safe and mindful place for healing body and spirit by listening to your wishes and concerns. My goal is to customize a massage that helps achieve your goals for health and vibrancy. I was raised in rural Idaho. After graduating high school in a class of 19 students, I left the country behind for the Boise area. After living there for more than 25 years, my husband's job took us to Pittsburgh, PA. There, I followed my passion for massage by graduating from a terrific massage therapy school and practicing as a licensed massage therapist at a wellness center; I also volunteered my services for a local charity. I have been a massage therapist in Corvallis for the past ten years..  As someone who has relied on massage my entire adult life to help with the pain of an auto accident when I was a teenager, I wanted to help others in the same way. I absolutely love being a massage therapist and helping others to feel their best.
