I have the unique ability to combine effective focused clinical massage therapy with the smoothing and caring touch of a spa treatment. I am endlessly fascinated with the ability of the body to adapt, recover, and evolve. For me massage therapy is like a study of anatomy in braille, although each body maybe made up of the same basic parts we are all uniquely different and require the touch of a massage therapist who can truly see us for what is below the surface. My goal is to ensure that each client feels relief from any discomfort they are experiencing while being fully relaxed and rejuvenated. I specialize in a variety of massage modalities ranging from clinically focused to soothing and restorative. I blend elements from each modalities to create a customized massage experience for each client. I graduated from Cortiva Institute Chicago School of Massage Therapy in June 2011 where I was recognized for academic excellence. In the spring of 2015 I had the extraordinary opportunity to study abroad in both Thailand and India. During this trip I learned many new techniques and perspectives on caring for the body, mind, and soul that I enjoy incorporating with my more clinical muscle focused massage techniques. During my career I have worked for Chiropractic doctors, a resort-style massage therapy office in the mountains of Colorado, Rest & Recovery wellness centers, a Luxury spa in 4.5 star hotel, and of course with a wide array of fantastic clients in my private practice. I am delighted to be sharing my skills and knowledge with you and look forward to working with you soon.
