My Services
Deep Swedish Massage
The flowing strokes of Swedish massage designed to relax the body and promote overall well-being. This technique improves circulation and alleviates tension, leaving you feeling rejuvenated. By incorporating elements of deep tissue massage, I can relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. It's an effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions and past lingering injuries.
Prenatal Massage
I learned Prenatal Massage from the renowned Carole Osborne. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, including positioning in the side-lying position, prenatal massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.

About Me
I completed my massage training at the International Professional School of Bodywork (IPSB) in San Diego in 2008. I continue to take classes because I love learning and to help me develop effective techniques to help you relax and allow your body to heal.
In 2025 I completed my Death Doula training through Going with Grace. In addition to my volunteer work with hospice organizations, I can help plan for a peaceful death and support with practical matters when a loved one dies.
