Because of my background I have a unique approach to bodywork. My knowledge of anatomy comes from both the outside and the inside. I have seen the brain and internal organs and how the muscles attach, I have held bones, muscles, and even a beating heart in my hand. My personal background has taught me a level of compassion that only comes from understanding through experience...not just education. I know first-hand the healing power of touch. I believe that regular massage is no longer a luxury! Handling the stress of hectic living takes a support group. With nearly 20 years experience in the Operating Room and now closing in on 20 years as a Massage Therapist I have a deep desire to be a strong support and partner to my clients and it was my delight to hear from a new client recently that I am "the real deal"! /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0in; mso-para-margin-right:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:10.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0in; line-height:115%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;}
