Nationally Certified Massage Therapist, NCBTMB
B.S. Wellness and Alternative Medicine

I practice massage therapy because I enjoy helping people feel comfortable in their bodies. It is an honor to contribute to the health and well-being of the individuals whom I touch with my work. I love to witness the transformation of breath easily deepening, of muscle fibers loosening, worried thoughts fading, and the natural radiance of one’s being emerging. I hope that the relaxation and peace I help you experience also helps to bring balance and wellness to your family, your community, and our world.
