I am passionate in alternative therapy, and finding new ways to treat the body. I want to be a resource for those looking for a higher quality of life and to approach their health in a proactive way. My goal is to help create body awareness through intentional touch and facilitate the body's healing processes. 

 

I am a licensed massage therapist and graduate of Onondaga School of Therapeutic Massage with seven years of hands-on experience. I'm a certified Craniosacral Therapist through the Upledger Institute and have completed four levels of training since 2019. I also trained in Traditional Thai Yoga Massage at the Sunshine School of Thai Massage in Chiang Mai, Thailand. This year I trained as a birth doula and am working on my DONA certification. 

 

Additional modalities I practice include Craniosacral therapy/ Somato-emotional release, Prenatal and Post-partum work **now with special pregnancy pillow so pregnant clients can lay prone (face-down.) My newest service is postpartum Bengkung style belly-binding which involves tying a long strip of cloth around the hips, abdomen and ribcage to help a woman heal after giving birth. It can assist with providing support to the abdominal muscles and pelvis, including in cases of diastasis recti (abdominal wall separation.) I also practice Traditional Thai Yoga Massage. My bodywork style is treatment focused and client specific.

My work has been described as dynamic and detail-oriented.

[Craniosacral therapy is a light touch, non-invasive approach that works with the natural self-correcting mechanisms in the body to and pinpoint and address problem sources. It is a whole-body approach focused on treating the person, not the symptom. This gentle modality is appropriate for people in all walks of life. SomatoEmotional release includes the use of therapeutic imagery and dialogue to create a mind/body connection and promote deeper release and resolution.]
