Why Massage?

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.” - Albert Einstein

Do you suffer from Headaches? Sleep difficulties? Back and neck pain? Are you sluggish, low energy, or just don’t feel like you can give it all you’ve got? Are you sore and slow most of the time? Are you stressed out? Do you even know how to relax?

Massage is more than just a nice perk. Our relationship with our bodies shapes the manner in which we experience life; It’s a lens we see everything through. Receiving bodywork consistently, even if only once a month, can easily be a life-altering investment in the quality of your existence.

Through massage people sleep better, feel more relaxed, and understand their bodies more profoundly. Over time they reverse poor posture, destructive habits, increase the effectiveness of their movement, gain respect for their physical self, and train their bodies to know they will be maintained and cared for. Massage is one of the most effective methods I have found in which to improve the quality of your life in your body.

I enjoy creating a partnership with clients, offering versatile bodywork that engages you and places you in a position of power in your care. My goal as your massage therapist is to maintain a genuine, adaptive, welcoming space for you to experience the profound, often subtle benefits of massage – and to keep you coming back.

I include Swedish, Deep Tissue, Thai, Muscle Energy, Neuromuscular Technique, and Myofascial release in my daily practice. My specialty is integrating them all into treatment that works for you, and feels good too. [Mostly. :)] I use Sunflower oil as my base oil, and offer an aromatic option which changes with the seasons.

As research into the science of massage continues to mature, the stunning depth of the benefits in receiving massage are becoming clearer. More and more research articles like these are proving what many massage advocates like myself have believed all along: Massage works, and it works well. It transformed my life, and if can transform yours, too.
