I've been practicing massage for 6 years. I challenge myself to actively keep learning and currently offer a variety of techniques tailored to meet each individual's needs. I specialize in working with clients who experience pain in their necks or backs. Often the culprit is a muscular imbalance brought on by an injury, poor posture, or too much time sitting. I help relax tired, overstressed muscles that are pulling bones out of alignment and bring them back to a more natural, healthy and flexible state. Specialties include Swedish, deep tissue, Sports and injury recover, expectant mothers (pre-natal and post-natal ) infants and children. If you're looking for a break from reality and would like to begin appreciating the little things again instead of being chronically frazzled, I can help. You'll find me to be friendly, respectful and professional.
Massage
Massage oil or cream is used with smooth, gliding strokes. Swedish massage uses firm but gentle pressure to promote relaxation, ease muscle tension and create other health benefits. It is a classic massage that will ease your stress and allow you to slip into a calm state of relaxation.
Lymphatic Drainage
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart with gentle, targeted massage helps soften adhesions, improve tissue mobility, and restore healthy circulation around scar tissue. This encourages better healing, reduces restriction, and supports smoother movement.
