I am a 2010 graduate of the Oregon School of Massage and have over 400 hours of continuing education in complementary modalities such as Strain-Counter Strain, Myofacial Release, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Muscle Energy (and Beyond) techniques, Morphogenic Field Testing, Functional Indirect Technique, Neurofacial Processing, Quantum Touch, Self Created Health (emotional processing technique) and others. I also have strong interests in nutrition, homeopathic and vibration therapies, and therapies for the body/mind connection.

In years past I worked as a certified aerobics instructor and personal trainer, a childbirth educator and child health advocate.  Along the way, I developed a pre-/post-natal aerobics program and a pre-dialysis dietary program based on vegan whole foods, both under the guidance of medical and healthcare professionals.  My current projects include developing a focused meditation to augment the communication and relationship between the mind and body, plus an online training program for non-practitioners for healing the emotional roots of their chronic injuries and diseases. 

I strive to integrate all aspects of health: emotional, spiritual, environmental, and nutritional in addition to the physical. My goal is to help each client set goals for their health using systems and approaches that are powerful and meaningful to them. Each treatment is specialized, unique and individual to each client. I acknowledge that, as a client, you have many options when choosing how to care for your body, mind and spirit. I respect your right to lead and direct those choices. I shall endeavor to share my skill and knowledge in a manner that honors the co-creative partnership we are forming. I trust you to be open and honest in sharing information that is pertinent to your treatment and communicating when you have questions and concerns.
