Got stress? Most of us do! My intention as a massage therapist is to create an environment and protocol that helps you to manage life’s worries, aches and pains. After 15 years of offering massage therapy, I’m convinced that if we can reduce tension and stress, then we can achieve optimal physical and mental health. Together we’ll establish the style, pressure, and use of tools that are perfect for your specific needs. I am experienced in Deep Tissue, Swedish, Cupping, Hot Stone, Aromatherapy, Prenatal and Geriatric massage. I’m looking forward to working with you and sharing the miracle of healing bodywork!

I encompass a range of techniques to address both acute and chronic pain as well as generalized relaxation to alleviate muscle tension. I use a combination of deep pressure massage with trigger point modalities to release and assist structural balance. I have extensive experience working with motor vehicle accidents as well as life's daily demands. Depending on your needs I will adapt to create a therapeutic, relaxing and rehabilitating massage just for you. I strive to supply my knowledge of stretching, home care and directive energy to give you the best massage you deserve.
Cheerfully yours,

My passion for Massage Therapy is rooted in my early experience as a dancer. Through dance, I discovered the importance of having a healthy, unhindered body and developed an understanding of muscle action, stretching and strengthening skills, and alignment awareness.
I believe that through the release of structural holding patterns we can be freer in movement, strength and even happiness. My intention as an LMT is to create a safe space for all my clients where healing and relaxation can take place and to support them in their own unique healing process.
I completed my massage training at East/West College of the Healing Arts in 2003 after receiving my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Modern Dance from Bennington College in 1999. My massage style is therapeutic in nature and I use a variety of techniques and modalities in my practice including; Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, Swedish, Myofascial Release and Hot Stone. I’m also trained in Traditional Thai Massage, Ashiatsu, and Orthobionomy.
I’m available for appointments at Elk Rock Wellness on Fridays and Sundays. Click here to book now!
I look forward to working with you!

Life is stressful, whether you are feeling the weight of parenting, the pressure of work deadlines or the overwhelming need to succeed in whatever life throws at you, my massage sessions can help!
After taking some time at the beginning of the session to get to know you better, I will create the perfect environment that will allow you to let go of your mental stress while I intuitively work on helping to release the physical tension found in your muscles. In just ones session, you will feel a sense of relief and renewed wellbeing.
Self care is an important investment in your health and should be implemented on a regular basis to help balance your busy lifestyle. Schedule a massage with me on Saturdays, I am confident you will leave your session feeling recharged and focused with less stress!

Our bodies are not machines and we each hold a story that needs attention. If pain is part of your story, I can help you feel better. The time when you’re on my table will be the best part of your day and when you leave, you’ll shine a little brighter. I am honored to be part of the Elk Rock Wellness Collective, a safe and welcoming environment cultivated by dedicated health care professionals serving our community’s need to optimize their wellness goals.
After years in the corporate world, I embarked on a journey to realize my long-term dream of becoming a massage therapist. In 2019, I graduated from East West College of the Healing Arts and since then, I’ve continued to learn new modalities and mentor with talented professionals in medical massage, structural integration, Reiki healing, and craniosacral techniques.
I provide an integrative treatment customized to your needs and goals. Your treatment includes guided breathing, Swedish and deep tissue massage. I also combine myofascial and trigger point release, range of motion and joint mobilization techniques providing lasting results. I specialize in relieving pain patterns and in creating more freedom of movement.
By honoring and nurturing your whole self, I aspire to help you: release what your body is ready to let go of, raise your energetic vibration, and expand your capacity.
Outside of bodywork, I enjoy getting in the dirt and exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my husband John and our puppy Reggie, foraging mushrooms, beachcombing, hiking, and traveling. At home I love cooking in my luminary kitchen, arts and crafts, gardening, and throwing pottery.

Something I get asked a lot is, “Why did you decide to become a massage therapist?” and truthfully, there wasn’t one specific “aha!” moment, but rather a series of unfoldings that helped guide me into this field. And while certain forces tried to sway me towards a more “traditional” path, I’ve stood strong in my conviction in knowing I always wanted to help people - help them feel alive and positive, and throughout my experience, bodywork and massage have always genuinely felt natural to me; it’s what fuels my fire. I am so grateful and fortunate that I work in a field I am truly passionate about, and I look forward to sharing my love for dynamic bodywork with you
I would describe my style as therapeutic; I enjoy utilizing many tools and techniques I have had the joy of learning, such as: deep tissue and swedish techniques, massage and acupressure cupping, gua sha, fascial release, MET/AET, trigger point techniques, hot stones and utilizing my years of practice and knowledge to provide relief on the table, but also address ways you can find relief in your everyday life, for lasting relief.
If I’m not working, or digging my nose into my bodywork textbooks, you can find me with my cats in our garden, hiking throughout the beautiful PNW landscape, or dancing and inviting my inner child to let loose, wherever there’s music to be found.

I feel very fortunate to support my clients in welcoming the gifts of freedom, health, and vitality into their lives through the practice of massage. Whether you’re an active athlete seeking to support your body’s best performance, or you’re recovering from injury, pain, or a stressful lifestyle, massage has the capacity to support you in nurturing your body’s innate potential for healing and growth.
I have been enjoying the practice of massage since 2010 when, on a whim, I decided to take a course in Swedish massage at the San Francisco School of Massage. I immediately resonated with this art form, which intersects my curiosities around matters of health and wellness, several movement traditions (most notably, yoga and gymnastics), science, and spirituality. I have continued to explore many styles and traditions of bodywork, including biodynamic massage, biodynamic cranial therapy, craniosacral therapy, deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and zen shiatsu. I am also a Reiki master in the tradition of Mikao Usui. In 2015-2016 I spent several months in Southeast Asia, studying Thai-Yoga massage and other traditional healing modalities. My practice is grounded in a regular engagement with a Buddhist meditation technique called Vipassana, which means “to see things as they are.”
Outside of my practice, I’m constantly seeking and exploring new adventures with movement. I enjoy the beautiful playground the PNW offers for hiking, water activities, yoga, biking, and running. You can often find me working to improve my handstand, where I enjoy playing with my body and life from an inverted perspective.

As a result of the pandemic, I felt called to deepen my understanding of medicine and return to school to pursue Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I am in my final year of a 3-year post graduate program and clinical rotations at Legacy Pain Clinic, Cascadia Health, and National University of Natural Medicine. (OCOM/NUNM Class of 2025)
