History
Education and Training: * AOS in Massage Therapy, Swedish Institute College of Massage in New York City, 2008 * Advanced certifications in Medical Massage of the Cervical Region and Hip/Pelvic Complex * Advanced Sports Massage Certification * Finish Line Athlete Support with on-site Medical Team for NYC Marathon, NYC Triathlon, Manhattan Island Marathon Swim Philosophy I like to think of myself as a catalyst of change with my clients. Most of the work I do is very patient, very deep tissue work. I try to tune in to the person I am working with, see what their body responds to, carefully test the boundaries without pushing beyond them, and most importantly, be sensitive to their needs. Although some clients are surprised by the depth of pressure we achieve, it is important to me that change is achieved in partnership, in a way that the body welcomes, and does not resist.
