| Practice Information |
I have been a Licensed massage Therapist since 1989 and a Certified Rolfer since 2001. I have also trained in Myofiacial Release and Neuromuscular Therapy, as well as many other massage modalities over the years. I focus on bodywork that helps people quickly heal from acute and chronic pain and injury. I call my unique blend of Rolfing, Myofascial Release, and Neuromuscular Therapy “medical massage.” I am also trained in the application of Kinesiotape, a medical and athletic taping system that helps the body recover from pain, injury, and bruising, while also supporting the muscles and stabilizing joints. Whether we are doing the Rolfing Series, or session work outside of it, my goal is to help you while you’re on AND off my table.
I believe that every person possesses an inner wisdom regarding their body’s needs. It is my practice to trust that intution and work within that framework. I do this by combining my expertise and experience with your inherent understanding of your own body in a way that will serve you the most. We work together as a team to help you get the most out of your body, so we will discuss your goals to develop a plan of treatment that works best for you.
Over the years I have combined my training and experience in a way that maximize results for each client on my table. My work is considered deep tissue, and to be clear, it’s as deep as your body will LET me go. I never work past your pain threshold, but rather inside it. |

| Bio: |
While finishing my BA in Psychology at the University of Central Florida, I attended The Reese Institute, School for Massage Therapy (1989), received my Florida State License (MA0009869), and have been in private practice since then. In 2001 I attended the Rolf Institute in Boulder, Colorado and became a Certified Rolfer. Over the years I have trained in many other massage modalities, but my favorites are Rolfing, Myofascial Release, Therapeutic Stretching, and, most recently, Kinesio-Taping.
While practicing bodywork, I also became an Instructor for the international course Understanding Yourself and Others and later graduated from Coach University after completing their Coach Training Program. I then became a Certified Facilitator and Coach through the Field Center — which reflects more accurately the style in which I now Coach.
I am married to a wonderful man who teaches Theater, and we have an amazing son in elementary school. Last Summer we relocated to Virginia after spending most of my life in Central Florida. I currently have offices in Harrisonburg, Staunton, and Charlottesville. Although I’m not practicing Massage in Florida, I am still maintaining my Florida Massage License — and may be back from time to time for “working vacations.” |
