About Me / Hours

I graduated from the Institute of Therapeutic Massage and Movement in November 2000 and have been licensed by the State of Tennessee Health related boards as a Massage Therapist since January of 2001. I am a dedicated bodyworker with a passion for relieving the physical and mental stresses people encounter in today’s hectic lifestyles.

I have developed a unique and integrated process to massage that combines elements of Deep Tissue, Myofascial Release and joint mobilization to address issues of pain, tension or immobility in clients. The goal for each session is to tailor a massage that focuses on the current, specific issues while also addressing the structural imbalances in the body due to adhesions in the muscles or surrounding tissues.

Massage modalities include:

• Myofascial Release
• Deep Tissue
• Sports-related Injury
• Active Isolated Stretching  (lower body)
• Therapeutic warm bamboo / cool marble stones
• Swedish
• Pre-natal
