I'm happy you are here and excited to share my passion with you! I have been dedicated to my own health for some time and fitness is what kickstarted my career in massage. I wanted to share my interest with others and came to the conclusion that facilitating the recovery, health, and healing of others through massage was the best way to do that. I could not have predicted the positive effect massage would have in my own life and how grateful I would be for it.
I recieved my training at East West College of the Healing Arts in Portland, OR and am thankful for my experience there. I gained strong knowledge of the body, its systems, and muscle structure. I learned valuable client communication skills and obtained a variety of Eastern and Western massage techniques to aid in the health of my clients. I also made life long friendships, had some amazing massages, and recieved invaluable mentorship.
After school I looked for massage continuing education. In that quest I found Esalen®️ massage and certified in the style in 2023. I also certified as a trauma informed therapist in the same style. The certification process was a transformative experience and ultimately shaped my philosophy of massage.
For me, massage is a lifestyle practice. I believe it can not only help in muscle recovery, muscle mobility, and relieve pain, but calm nervous system responses, bringing the client a peaceful state of mind, adding to overall wellbeing. As a practicioner, it is my goal to live by a healthy mind, body ethos in order to share health and healing with others. Congratulations on your own path to health, I'm happy to help!
