Dear Visitor,

I’ve always felt drawn to helping people. My journey to ​becoming a healer started with massage school in ​2010, which felt rewarding. After working in the field ​for several years, I felt something new needed to be ​incorporated into my practice to help me find fresh,

innovative ways to address clients’ needs. This brought me to Reiki, a form of ​energy healing, which amplified my ability to intuit client concerns, find trouble ​zones, and bring multi-layered healing to those on my table. Soon after, ​Ayurveda, a holistic Indian medicine system, peaked my interest. I spent the ​next 4 years learning and putting my new knowledge into direct client care. ​Learning how natural elements interact in the body and how they present ​themselves when in or out of balance, provided a deeper understanding of the ​layers and complexity of the human body. Some years later, I completed my ​undergrad and graduate degrees in Kinesiology, where anatomy and ​physiology were some of my favorite topics. Merging my eastern and western ​knowledge into a holistic and highly customized approach to my clients needs ​is how I achieve the best results I possibly can for each of them. Of course, my ​work is not complete without the client’s participation in self-care to carry on ​our work form each session for lasting benefits.

I look forward to getting to know you and speaking about the goals you have ​for your body and wellbeing!
