I am a PA Licensed Massage Therapist, and completed my training with the Central PA School of Massage for whom I also instructed. I am a graduate of the Pennsylvania State University, with a Bachelors of Psychology; and studied with the Classical Chinese Internal Arts Institute with whom I did my initial training in Tai Chi Chuan, Qigong, and other Chinese health arts. In addition to the priv ate practice I began in 1997, other notable programs I have worked with include Penn State Strength and Fitness, The various branches of The Centre County YMCA, and Highmark Blue Cross. Currently I complete my continuing education in massage with two groups, ABMPs own continuing education program and Advanced-Trainings, a group founded by a former faculty member of the Rolfing Institute and author of the Advanced Myofascial Techniques Textbook series. I am also actively enrolled with Energy Arts ongoing training program Tai Chi and Qigong developed by the foremost Western expert and direct lineage holder in Wu and Yang Style Tai Chi.
Massage Therapy
This massage is designed to promote relaxation and improve circulation, with the goal of reducing stress hormones, easing muscle tension, and improving sleep quality.
Reflexology
Reflexology, a type of acupressure, has become increasingly popular in the West. Rooted in Osteopathy principles, it bears similarities to Acupuncture and Ayurvedic medicine. The practice entails applying pressure to designated points on the body, which are thought to be linked to various organs and systems.
