Hi! And thanks for visiting. Here’s a bit more about how we can work together.

I have advanced training and experience treating individuals with a cancer diagnosis. Oncology massage is safe and nurturing touch appropriate during medical treatments that addresses side-effects such as fatigue, anxiety, and stress.

Oncology massage is also recommended post-treatment if you have had radiation or node removal - a trained oncology massage therapist is versed in appropriate methods that will protect from developing lymphedema. I provide Lymphatic Drainage if you are experiencing lymphedema from radiation or impaired lymph function. And once surgical scars have settled (12 weeks typically), I employ manual (hands only) techniques to reintegrate the scar tissue with the fascial network using ScarWork (a highly effective scar tissue management therapy). I also incorporate Craniosacral and Reiki therapy which aid in deep theta state healing and help to reset the nervous system.

My advanced training in Lymphatic Drainage (I have the same 150 hour training as PT’s working in the hospital setting) allows me to help clients managing any form of swelling or edema, such as lymphedema, lipedema, CVI, or as a result of elective surgery.

ScarWork Therapy, a novel way of treating scars and scar tissue, taught by Sharon Wheeler, is gentle and effective in increasing range of motion, skin motility and suppleness. I often work with clients recovering from lumpectomy, mastectomy, liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation or reduction, joint replacement, or new moms with C-Section surgery.

Craniosacral Therapy, a soft touch therapy that facilitates the body's natural and innate healing processes, is beneficial for people seeking help with a wide range of healthcare challenges. To learn more, please read my blog.

I believe massage is not a simple luxury - it is essential to the wellbeing of our body, mind and spirit.
