What kind of pressure can I expect to receive?

My clients can expect the amount of pressure they need or want, whether that be light as a feather or very firm. I work with my clients, not on them. In troublesome or painful areas that require deeper work, I target a breathable “hurts good” amount of pressure

​

What modalities do you use the most?

As a neuromuscular therapist, my goal is to help my clients move freely, without pain by treating current symptoms and preventing future ones. I work with your brain’s connection between specific nerves and muscles to restore healthy movement and function to painful, restricted, or fatigued areas of the body

What got you into bodywork?

My journey into the world of massage began with a broken tibia. I was having a great time before I crashed my mountain bike on one of the many trails above my alma mater, the University of California, Santa Cruz. After surgery and six months of physical therapy, I was back on my mountain bike with a new respect for the resilience of the human body, and gratitude to the care team that literally helped me walk again. This experience completely shaped my relationship to movement, and ignited a passion for helping people move how they want to, pain and injury free.

​

​What other elements of your life do you bring to your bodywork?

From gymnastics as a kid to mountain bike racing through my adolescence; rock climbing, yoga and ultra running as an adult, my personal exploration with movement continues to shape and inform my style and focus as a bodyworker.
