It is my passion and life's work to heal the body. As a massage practitioner I've been practicing in the healing arts for over 5 years. I received my education at Ashmead collage and have several hours in continuing education where I studied a variety of healing modalities. I believe in tailoring a massage towards the individual needs of each client by using multiple techniques to get the best results possible. I pride myself on being a good listener and have over 6,000 hours of hands on time. My focus is to provide professional therapeutic massage for all individuals involved with injury rehabilitation and prevention. With my specialties ranging from the cervical, thoracic and lower pelvic area’s. Although I have my strong points of focus, I do work the full body and incorporate stretching and hydrotherapy throughout my treatments. In addition to massage I believe it is important to be healthy from the inside out and maintaining a balance within our lives is key. Good nutrition takes time and planning.

It is designed to elicit the most dramatic of natural healing responses. How we work with you is quite simple and profound. Our role is one of assessing your present state of balance. You may come to us from a doctor, with a specific diagnosis. There may be body imbalances you are very aware of. You may have completed other treatments and haven't gotten relief. We will explore your history and assess your physical condition to know where you are best supported in returning to pain free balance. Bowenwork is about encouraging what is already healthy. In this, what is imbalanced, receives an important message about changing. Soft physical "moves" over muscles and other soft tissues trigger your body's ability to heal. Your Healing Response is revitalized with a Relaxation Response. Achieving relaxation supports calm; when the body is at this place of calm, its innate healing mechanism functions optimally. Bowenwork utilizes the body's natural neurological abilities, engaging an inherent repatterning process. If your condition has existed for some time, or it's a recent injury, together we will formulate your road to Wellness! Where does Bowenwork originate? Bowenwork was developed in Australia by the late Tom Bowen. His expertise advanced from skillful sports injury treatments to proficiency in pain elimination. The Bowenwork technique also revealed results with common ailments and dysfunctions. Interest in these specialized techniques drew others to study Bowenwork methodology. Today's Practitioners learn from highly qualified and Internationally Authorized Teachers. More about Tom Bowen >> Oswald Rentsch, one of the the founders of Bowtech®, the original Bowen Technique, was Tom Bowen's apprentice for many years. Since 1990, together with his wife Elaine, they have been traveling the world teaching the teachers of Bowenwork as well as advanced classes for Practitioners. Ossie and Elaine have inspired students and teachers to learn and work with the highest integrity of Tom Bowen's gift to the world.

Procedures applied with timely significance allow release old patterns. The "tissue memory" held by the original trauma is disabled and full movement can return. Bowenwork provides an environment where neurological functioning normalizes. With sustained neuromuscular balance, pain free performance returns. What is a session like? Bowenwork feels subtle. Short specific moves trigger the body's relaxation response. You may fall asleep or be aware of gentle sensations. Most clients report a significant release of tension. Some moves are more dramatic - especially where your body has held long term dysfunction and/or pain. Your body will shift, allowing regeneration and healing.
