“The important thing is not to think too much, but to love much; and so do that which best stirs you to love.” Saint Tersea of Avila

Since 1997, I have been studying healing and bodywork.  Establishing my focus in college as maximizing human potential, with a Major and Minor in Psychology and Holistic Health, respectively, led me to a great passion for the healing arts. Massage therapy and bodywork made intuitive sense to me and I saw it as an extremely valuable conduit for wellness,  a way for people to maintain an awareness of presence and self and to take care of themselves, so to approach their lives from a centered place. (I hoped this would also rub off on me!!) Since escaping stress is impossible, it is essential that we learn to manage it well.  Mismanagement of stress is the root of much dis-ease, poor choice, pain and fatigue.  I try to tap the well of prevention by aiming to help people manage stress and work towards keeping them out from under the constrictive nature of stress and physical pain.  I have created an environment that allows the body and mind to rest, rejuvinate and heal in a sanctuary built for just that purpose.  A place to breathe.
