About Me

Some of the most frustrating massages I have ever received all had the same aspect: they were all "cookie cutter" massages. Regardless of my chief complaint, which is usually shoulders, the massage therapist would do a general routine that did not adequately address my specific issues. In my massage room, YOU are my focus. I am a solution-focused massage therapist, meaning I spend time talking closely with each client, ascertaining your needs with health and recovery as the end goal. It is as important to me to see improvement after each massage as it is to you. I promise to listen and integrate your requests into the massage.

Massage as a way of life and healing is very important. However, I have found that when people are in pain due to a car accident, an old injury, or from an accident at work, having clear and concise goals for each massage is critical. I will work with you to develop attainable goals and celebrate each improvement. Of course, relaxing, warm massages where the client drools and falls asleep are available, too.

As a part time doula, I have found a passion in working with clients that are in the child-bearing years. I have trained at Seattle Midwifery and taken advanced pregnancy massage courses. I offer massages to women who are pregnant throughout every stage of their pregnancy, and also offer specific massages for women who are attempting to get pregnant or are post-natal. Dads are always welcome as well.

I have had over 750 hours of massage training, including the Big Island Academy of Massage, in Hilo, HI., and Brenneke School of Massage in Seattle, WA. I have a current repeat clientele base of over 500 clients. I specialize in treatment work, pregnancy massage, and relaxation techniques.
