Biography

In 1998 I was introduced to Reiki, the ancient Japanese healing art. I was suffering from severe bouts of nausea every day. I had every test known to man with no conclusive diagnosis. A friend of mine was studying for her certification to be a Reiki Master. I received Reiki sessions one time a week for nearly a year. During one session, deep emotional trauma was discovered, re-experienced and released. The stomach nausea was resolved. It was also during one of these sessions that I became aware of a gift in the healing arts, specifically Massage Therapy.

I graduated from Ashmead College in 2003 with over 1,000 hours of basic licensing requirements including certification in Sports and Clinical Massage. Since then I have pursued continuing education credits in Advanced Myofascial Techniques (sponsored by the Rolf Institute) and Craniosacral Therapy.

The body is a wonderful healing organism. Sometimes it simply takes the power of touch to assist the body and encourage the healing experience.
