Specialties
Therapeutic Massage has been my focus. I treat people with chronic discomfort and injuries to decrease pain, improve circulation,and range of motion. This type of massage is specific(not full body) and uses a variety of techniques including stretching, neuromuscular, heat and deep tissue. I often give advice how to safely strengthen and stretch the problem areas, along with ergonomic suggestions. I also offer Postural Exercises and Yoga sessions. I individulize the postural exercises according to your specific postural imbalances and weakness. With my yoga sessions. I individually design a yoga practice tailored to the clients physical abilities and goals.
