Uncovering My Unique Approach to Massage Therapy Beyond the Ordinary

What Sets Me Apart from the Crowd of Massage Therapists?

What Unique Approaches Make My Massage Therapy Stand Out From Others

My Background, My Training, My Compassion and My Ability to Connect.

Earning my bachelor’s degree in physical therapy and years working as an outpatient orthopedic therapist formed my deep understanding of structure and function. My thirst for knowledge expanded into earning my massage license in 1993. For years I worked concurrently in both fields, eventually evolving to massage solely as my family and duties at home grew.

Fast forward, now with even more training and knowledge I offer a multiple-modality approach to clients. Along with massage and physical therapy I hold Master Level Training in energy medicine such as Reiki and IET (Integrated Energy Therapy or The Energy of the Angels).

I have developed my own intuitive style to massage by first listening to my clients’ words then tapping in to hear their body. Each one is unique, and each session is catered based on the intention.

Some modalities I often include with a massage include neuro muscular therapy techniques, trigger point work, myofascial release, lymphatic techniques, cupping, cranial sacral, hot stones, stretching, and foot reflexology.

My life experiences have given me greater understanding and a compassionate heart. I hear the hurt at times, I feel the pain or grief. The body talks to me and I often sense blocks and emotions. With massage/Reiki/IET, the lower energy may move and this makes space for the light.

Reiki and Chakra balancing work many levels of the body and are a wonderful adjunct to massage. My training in this field is deep and I like to refer to a session as energy work as it encompasses my training in reiki, IET (angel therapy), Magnified Healing (Quan Yin) and work with crystals and pendulums. All sessions are unique and based upon request and intention. The energy modality can be a stand-alone session or combined with a massage.

When I am working with clients be it a massage or an energy session I put great importance on being connected to the light, clearing and being present. I work with divine light (you can call it God, Universe...) and when I am present for a session life's distractions are put aside.

My deep love of plants and flowers naturally led me to discover and learn the power of Essential oils. Essential oils are a beautiful adjunct to any massage. Many clients love lavender or peppermint oil. My favorite blends by Young Living are Stress Away, Peace and Calming, Valor, and Panaway. They may help calm the nervous system or encourage relaxation or help open the sinuses.

If you are like me you have a zest for life and learning. Workshops offer an avenue to share my knowledge and empower you. The list of offerings is expanding but current classes are Usui Reiki 1 & 2, Introduction to Pendulums, Intuition - Find out your unique Style. Coming soon, learn about Chakras, Angelic Connections, and Energy Medicine for all!
