I am a passionate believer in the healing power of touch. Touch is one of our five senses and it’s often overlooked as a natural component of the healing process.

I’m a certified massage therapist and Myofascial Release therapist (MFR) and have over 10 years experience in the healing arts. My sessions are customized to meet the individual needs of each client. I integrate the body, mind connection by utilizing a variety of modalities that help to integrate a whole body approach to healing. I specialize in Myofascial Release. 

I have found lasting results in reducing chronic pain patterns using the John Barnes Myofascial Release (MFR) approach. The fascial system is a three dimensional web like system that effects everything in the body down to a cellular level. MFR focuses on the source of pain and not the just the symptoms. Fascial restrictions can be caused by repetitive motion, poor posture and any kind of trauma to the body, such as a fall or surgery. These fascial restrictions can cause an enormous amount of pain throughout the body, so getting to the source of the restrictions is key to reducing chronic pain patterns and restoring balance in the body and mind. 

I received my Massage and Polarity Therapy training at Hands on Healing Institute in Tujunga, CA.. I received my Ayurvedic Lifestyle Counselor training at WiseEarth Ayurveda school. I received my MFR training with John Barnes and have studied with other highly qualified teachers. My continuing education is a life journey. 

I have worked in physical therapy clinics, chiropractic and acupuncture offices, MFR center and day spas. I am a member of ABMP, and am currently working on my National Board certification.

I have been a long time yoga practitioner and I love to garden and spend time outdoors, especially by the sea. There truly is nothing like a little sand, salt and sea breeze to create a shift in thinking.
