Hello.  I graduated from the Gentle Healing School of Massage Therapy in 1999 and was a certified massage therapist in New Jersey.  I left the field upon my relocation to Florida.   When I decided to return to massage therapy. I enrolled at the renowned Florida School of Massage in Gainesville.  My experience at FSM was truly amazing.  I graduated in 2015.  

I employ a gentle approach that integrates various modalities which includes deep tissue therapy. 

Deep tissue therapy is not deep pressure work; there are no mashing muscles and pummeling the body.  

I tune in by working with your body's natural responses and respecting the boundaries.  When your muscles have softened enough, ceased resisting and guarding, then it's ready for more deep and focused work.

Therapeutic massage, at its best, is gentle, effective and healing.  Rest assured your comfort is of the utmost importance to me.  

In 2018, I was trained in Lomi Lomi Temple Style Massage, which is rooted in the lineage of Abraham Kawai'i.  My instructor was Tom Cochran, the founder of Sacred Lomi.

In 2019, I was trained in Oncology Massage, utilizing the non-circulatory massage protocol developed by Tracy Walton.  My instructors were Nanci Newton and Erika Slocum, long-time associates of Ms. Walton.  

Please go to the Modalities page for detailed descriptions of  Lomi Lomi Massage and Oncology Massage.

The 'Why Massage?' page is my online journal.

Thank you for visiting.
