My Background:
I have been a full-time licensed massage therapist since 2011. Before graduating from The Finger Lakes School of Massage in 2010, I had studied Shiatsu at the Ohashi Institute. I love the fluidity and ease that is our body's natural state, and use a unique combination of therapies to meet my clients' needs. I am adept and working with neck pain, headaches, sinus issues, and TMJ disorder, but I have no problem effectively treating any area that is causing distress.
Massage Stye:
My approach to massages is wholistic, thorough and deeply relaxing. I seamlessly incorporate gentle or deep pressure along acupuncture meridians to release physical, mental, and emotional stresses. I like to work slowly and methodically, layer by layer, with careful attention to individual muscles and connective tissue. I incorporate myofascial release so that the connective tissue allows space for the muscles and tendons to relax.
Supplementary Techniques:
Depending on your needs and interests, I offer a variety of supplementary techniques to enhance your massage experience.
- Foot Reflexology
- Aromatherapy
- Cranial Sacral Therapy
- Polarity Therapy
- Reiki
- Biofield Tuning
I take a very technical approach to each of these techniques and guarantee authentic and effective application. I am happy to answer any questions you may have to improve understanding of each treatment.
