General Info
I was first introduced to massage therapy during my journey to heal my own chronic pain. Experiencing the benefits of massage and bodywork inspired me to pursue a career as a professional massage therapist. I soon found that being a massage therapist was exactly what I was meant to do. It is an honor to be part of a person's healing process. I am a nationally certified massage therapist (NCBTMB) and insured through ABMP. I graduated from Touchstone Healing Arts School of Massage, a 690 hour certification program in Relaxation and Therapeutic massage. At Touchstone Healing Arts I studied Human Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology, Professional Ethics and communication skills, Business management, Kinesiology, Somatic Psychology, Chair massage, Deep tissue, Therapeutic, and Swedish massage as well as an introduction in Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Muscle Energy Techniques, Neuromuscular Massage, Hydrotherapy, Reflexology, Sports Massage, Aromatherapy and Shiatsu. Since graduating from massage school I have further developed my professional knowledge and skills through extensive hands-on experience as well as continued education in Neuromuscular, Myofascial release, Rotator cuff and shoulder dysfunction, Prenatal, and Hot Stone massage. In addition to my own massage practice I am employed at Cedarwood Chiropractic where I have had the opportunity to expand my clinical massage skills including the assessment of and working with chronic and acute musculoskeletal conditions. I am also employed at Jivana Holistic Spa where I have learned various spa treatments and accumulated hundreds more hours of hands on experience in Relaxation and Therapeutic massage. Outside of massage I have a passion for living sustainably. I practice this in my daily life by living off the grid in a home run mainly by solar power and cultivating the majority of my food for the year.
