depression and autism. She goes the extra mile to make sure her clients feel
comfortable, heard, and informed about the treatment they are receiving.
Using a combination of trigger point release, Swedish massage and myofascial

Appling a gentle yet firm pressure, she is focussed and patient with each area,
paying attention to how the body responds.
She takes a holistic approach to health care, and has a great understanding of
how the body works and functions as a unit. She has weight-trained and done
yoga for several years, and enjoys sharing this knowledge with her clients. She
believes it is always possible to improve functionality and quality of life no matter
the clients age or level of restriction.
Through her treatments, her long-term goal is to educate her clients on how their
lifestyle or work is affecting their body, and how to manage pain and stress by
developing a movement and self-care practice that is realistic, effective, and
enjoyable.
