        I was born with a passion for health and wellness and have a strong belief in the benefit of Thai massage, vibrational sound healing and body work as part of a holistic approach to overall health and vitality. I have been helping my patients reduce stress and anxiety, as well as increase their mobility, flexibility, and recovery from injury.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

        I have a particular interest in chronic physical and emotional pain relief, tension release, as well as the overall mental health of my clients. I strive to improve the quality of life of all who I touch physically and energetically.<\/p>\n

        I am trained in multiple modalities and put them to use during each and every visit to maximize the healing process of the individual. Modern medicine is successful at targeting symptoms, but it does not balance the body\u2019s system like energy healing does.<\/p>\n

        Energy blockages can prevent the individual from making real progress towards their healing goals, whether emotional, physical, or spiritual so I help realign the body’s frequency and allow space for free energy flow and self-healing.<\/p>\n
