About Me

My credentials include, but are not limited to, a Professional Master of Science, a certification in Massage Therapy from Bristol Community College, a Massachusetts massage therapy license and a plethora of certifications from which knowledge is applied in my daily operations.  
I have chosen to apply my scientific knowledge, heart and intuitive nature for healing, to help clients heal themselves.  I study research publications focuson the physiological effects of massage, for example:  lymphatic flow, blood circulation and muscle function and the neurological and emotional connection.  I use an eclectic approach to the treatment of clients, taking individual needs into consideration.  I facilitate the relationship between the manipulation of tissues and body systems using:  energy work as a Reiki Master and qi gong and polarity therapy practitioner in addition to various clinical , Sweedish, Acupressure, Trigger Point, Reflexology, Lymphatic, Myofascial, active and passive stretching, cupping, neuromuscular and Thai techniques.  I help people recover from injuries, increase athletic performance, and focus and calm when suffering from generalized anxiety disorder, maintain general well being, endure pregnancy and more.  I love my job!

Hospice Massage is a special love of mine.  My patients entrust me with some of their most precious end of life hours.  I can help with edema and pain management. When patients can use fewer pain medications, they can be more "present" for last conversations with loved ones.  We laugh and joke and I cry in my car.  Generally, after the first visit, my patients ask for me daily.

My goal is to treat MIND, BODY, SPIRIT using massage, energy work, meditation , hypnotherapy and coaching.  Sometimes getting rid of emotional and mental baggage is all one needs to get to their next level of success.
