Advanced Bodywork
My hands don't just work on your body—they listen to it.
Years of training in multiple bodywork modalities gave me the technical foundation, but it's the thousands of hours spent in genuine connection with my clients that taught me to sense what's really needed in each moment.
When you're on my table, I'm completely present with you, reading the subtle language your body speaks through tension, resistance, and release. Every session is unique because every body is unique, and what you need today may be different from what you needed last week.
Pain isn't just physical—it's emotional, held in places we forgot we were carrying burdens. Your shoulders may hold years of responsibility. Your hips may store old grief. Your jaw may clench with words never spoken. I work with all of it, because your body doesn't separate physical from emotional, and neither do I.
The Sacred Nature of This Work
Touch is sacred. It requires trust, vulnerability, and presence from both of us. When you allow me to work with your body, you're offering access to your most authentic self—the self that can't lie or pretend, that simply is.
I don't take that lightly. Every session is a collaboration between your body's innate wisdom, your healing intentions, and my commitment to serving your highest good. This is partnership, not prescription.
Yes, I'm trained in medical massage, deep tissue, cranial sacral therapy, lymphatic drainage, myofascial release, and many other modalities. But this work goes beyond any single technique.
It's an integration of professional expertise with intuitive listening, clinical precision with compassionate presence.
Some clients call it intuitive bodywork. Others call it life-changing. I call it what happens when we create space for your body to remember what wholeness feels like.
Beyond Technique
I work with people who value a personalized, attentive approach to bodywork and healing.
I've worked with bodies in crisis and bodies in celebration, bodies healing from trauma and bodies simply asking for rest.
What unites my clients is not their condition or their activity level, but their willingness to be present with what is, and trust in their body to know how to heal when given the right support.
Who I Work With
How I Work With You
We work together to discover what feels right for your body that day, whether that’s deep tissue, light pressure, Cupping, Gua Sha, gentle cranial sacral therapy, lymphatic release, Myofascial release, and especially Fascia Release as in many cases, that’s the root and often the place to begin.
Your session adapts to whatever you choose for me to focus on, not to a predetermined menu. My work is about creating more ease and flow in your movement.
Modalities I Offer
Bodywork is a journey of deep listening and profound transformation.
We address the root of physical and emotional patterns.
Medical Massage
Physician-prescribed therapeutic massage for specific medical conditions and injuries. Outcome-based treatment that targets diagnosed issues with precision. Receipts provided for insurance reimbursement submission.
Deep Tissue Therapy
Targeted treatment for chronic tension, adhesions, and sports-specific injuries. This therapeutic approach addresses the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms, helping you achieve lasting relief.
Lymphatic Release
Gentle, rhythmic technique that supports your body's natural detoxification system. Reduces inflammation and swelling, supports immune function, aids post-surgical recovery, and promotes overall wellness. Particularly beneficial for those with lymphedema, chronic inflammation, or compromised immune systems.
Cranial Sacral Therapy
Gentle, hands-on technique that releases tension in the central nervous system. Effective for headaches, migraines, TMJ dysfunction, stress-related disorders, and promoting deep relaxation and healing.
Myofascial & Fascia Release
Release restrictions in the connective tissue that limit your mobility and cause pain. Techniques include skin rolling, myofascial release, and fascia work to improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and prevent future injuries.
Cupping Therapy, Gua Sha & Skin Rolling
Ancient techniques with modern applications for muscle recovery, pain relief, and improved circulation. Cupping uses suction to release deep tissue tension, gua sha stone work breaks up adhesions and promotes healing, and skin rolling stimulates fascia and increases blood flow. Highly effective for athletes and those with stubborn muscle tension.
Hot Stone Relaxation Massage
Pure relaxation and stress relief using smooth, heated stones combined with flowing massage techniques. The warmth penetrates deep into muscles, melting away tension and promoting profound relaxation. Perfect for those seeking deep rest and rejuvenation.
Cancer Care & Chronic Illness Support
Gentle, specialized bodywork for those navigating cancer treatment, recovery, or living with chronic illness. Adapted to your unique needs and medical considerations, providing safe, compassionate care when your body needs it most.

That depends on what you're working with. Some clients benefit from weekly sessions during acute phases, others find monthly maintenance sufficient. We'll figure out what serves you best.
-
To some degree I think this happens for many clients before a relationship has been established. We are getting to know each other. I work slowly and with your consent. I ask significant questions as I am working on you. Your feedback is invaluable, and it allows me to know you and your body better. As your comfort increases, you will rebuild trust with your body. Many of my client’s tell me they love being educated about how their body performs best for them.
