MY PURPOSE
I wish to help others understand the importance of reaching balance in their body, mind and soul. Stress is toxic to the body. Stress can come from many sources. Learning what causes your body stress and how to get rid of it is the foundation to your healing. Massage is a basic way to help disburse stagnation in the body. Stagnation is in sense, a form of stress. It blocks the free flow of your bodies energy system. Pain can manifest in many ways in the body such as physical, mental or even emotionally. Through a variety of alternative treatments and approaches, I work to unlock the potential of self-healing in each client, often seeing improvements from the very first session. Trust my hands and energy, and trust your ability to heal and allow yourself to feel better than you ever imagined possible. Contact me for more information.
