Services Offered

My work incorporates a combination of different techniques in order to best meet my client's needs. I practice a wide range of modalities, including:

Pain management helps manage and relieve chronic or acute pain. It can also address compensatory patterns.
Sports massage helps treat injury, prevent future injuries, decrease pain, and increase mobility, improving athletic performance. I have advanced certification in sports massage.
Deep tissue massage uses deep, focused pressure to relieve tension and pain, and increase mobility.
Medical massage focuses on relieving chronic or acute pain from surgery, injury or a medical condition. Can alleviate depression associated with any such condition and speed the recovery process. I have advanced certification in medical massage.
Myofascial release targets tissue restrictions to alleviate pain and improve posture and flexibility.
Trigger Point therapy applies direct pressure to specific tender spots, also known as "muscle knots", in order to decrease local and referred pain, reduce associated tension, and improve mobility.
PNF stretching - Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching utilizes techniques that aim to engage the nervous system and soft tissue to increase range of motion and optimize motor function. PNF stretching is often used for rehabilitation as well as athletes looking to enhance their performance.
Myoskeletal therapy - Addresses both the myofascial and skeletal systems to alleviate stubborn pain conditions. Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques focus on joint mobilization through soft tissue manipulation. I have advanced certification in Myoskeletal alignment techniques.
Prenatal & Perinatal massage - These facilitate stress reduction, pain relief, and improved health for both the mother and baby throughout pregnancy and postpartum recovery. I have advanced certification in prenatal and perinatal massage.
Swedish massage is a soothing, relaxing massage using firm but gentle pressure. Main benefits include stress reduction, anxiety relief, decreased depressive symptoms, and pain relief.

Why working with me means more than massage

I am committed to helping you reach your health goals, which is why my care extends beyond the treatment room.

Follow ups:

I follow up by email to find out how you're feeling after your sessions. Your feedback helps to shape our next appointment and inform treatment in order to optimize outcomes.

Coaching:

I offer personalized self-care and lifestyle recommendations to help you maintain the benefits of our work in between appointments, e.g. reduced pain, increased mobility, or anxiety relief. These often include guided videos of self-massage routines, relaxation techniques, stretching and movement exercises, or instructions on improving ergonomics and body mechanics. I also may share helpful articles, links, and recaps of what we discussed during your most recent session.
