I have been offering massage as an alternative health practice since 2002 and am dedicated to your health and well-being.  I use a natural approach to better health through massage and whole food plant-based nutrition, and it is my goal to help you look good, feel better and live the life of your dreams.  Together, we’ll create a plan that works best for you, incorporating years of training and experience, having worked with many different populations.  Each person is responsible for his/her own healing, and I, as the therapist, am here to assist you in your process.   

I studied at SHI Medical Massage School in Dayton, OH from September 2000 through April 2002, sitting for the Ohio State Medical Boards in June, 2002 and opened my practice in August, 2002.   An active member of the American Massage Therapy Association(AMTA), I participate regularly in AMTA  conferences where I’m is able to continue my education.

Benefits of massage 

Massage has been around for many, many years and has been well known as an alternative practice to assist with healing from many differing ailments.  Just to list a few: 

  • Alleviate low-back pain and improve range of motion.

  • Assist with shorter, easier labor for expectant mothers and shorten maternity hospital stays.

  • Ease medication dependence.

  • Enhance immunity by stimulating lymph flow—the body's natural defense system.

  • Exercise and stretch weak, tight, or atrophied muscles.

  • Help athletes of any level prepare for, and recover from, strenuous workouts.

  • Improve the condition of the body's largest organ—the skin.

  • Increase joint flexibility.

  • Lessen depression and anxiety.

  • Promote tissue regeneration, reducing scar tissue and stretch marks.

  • Pump oxygen and nutrients into tissues and vital organs, improving circulation.

  • Reduce postsurgery adhesions and swelling.

  • Reduce spasms and cramping.

  • Relax and soften injured, tired, and overused muscles.

  • Release endorphins—amino acids that work as the body's natural painkiller.

  • Relieve migraine pain.

The emotional benefits bodywork provides can often be just as valuable as the physical benefits. While eliminating anxiety and pressure altogether in this fast-paced world may be idealistic, massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress. This translates into:

  • Decreased anxiety.

  • Enhanced sleep quality.

  • Greater energy.

  • Improved concentration.

  • Increased circulation.

  • Reduced fatigue.

Increase the benefits with frequent visits

Getting a massage can do you a world of good. And getting massage frequently can do even more. Budgeting time and money for bodywork at consistent intervals is truly an investment in your health. Consider massage appointments a necessary piece of your health and wellness plan, and work with your practitioner to establish a treatment schedule that best meets your needs.
