My path into massage therapy began with a personal injury—an experience that opened my eyes to the power of skilled, intentional bodywork. What started as my own healing journey grew into a deep commitment to helping others move with less pain and more freedom. I trained at the National Holistic Institute in Studio City, California, and I’ve now been practicing for over 12 years. My work blends therapeutic deep tissue, myofascial release, lymphatic drainage, Thai yoga massage, Swedish, hot stones, cupping, sound healing, and Reiki. While I enjoy the variety of modalities I’ve studied, I feel especially connected to therapeutic deep tissue and the way it can create meaningful, lasting change in the body. My style—what I call Deep Tissue Flow—combines focused therapeutic work with intuitive movement, allowing sessions to feel both effective and fluid. I’m most aligned with clients navigating chronic pain, injury prevention, and post‑operative recovery. One of my strengths is meeting people exactly where they are—listening closely, adapting my approach, and creating a plan that supports their goals. Clear communication during intake is essential to me; it sets the tone for a safe, supportive, and collaborative experience. My continuing education has taken me around the world, from Yoga Teacher Training in India to Thai yoga massage training in Thailand. I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor’s in Kinesiology with the long‑term goal of becoming a Human Movement Specialist focused on injury prevention and functional wellness. Above all, I want clients to leave feeling relief—physically, mentally, and energetically. My work is rooted in the belief that when the body moves better, life feels better.
