MASSAGE
My massage sessions are geared towards relaxation to relieve stress, anxiety and manage sleep. I have a heavy hand and will add in therapeutic techniques like trigger point therapy, cupping and range of motion/stretching where I see its necessary but I mostly try to stay away from super deep pressure to relieve symptoms of pain. If you are in need of pain relief I encourage you to book a Fascial CounterStrain session.
FASCIAL COUNTERSTRAIN
FCS is a complex, clinical process that identifies and removes trapped inflammation in the body. As opposed to deep tissue, its low impact; similarly to deep tissue FCS focuses on specific ailments. When I find the right tender point it is more effective and longer lasting than deep tissue. These sessions are done with your clothes on so arrive with comfortable clothing.

About Me.
Welcome! Thank you for your interest in learning more about me and my therapeutic services. I fell in love with massage at the very first thought of becoming a massage therapist and have enjoyed every moment of massage since. This is why I decided to start my own practice- so I can learn more about the body through my clients. My passion for massage began when I gave light back rubs to a family member to help her sleep and ease the pain and symptoms of chemotherapy treatments. I was amazed at the way it relaxed not only her but myself as well. Soon after, I began my formal training at Cedar Stone School of Massage where I learned swedish, deep tissue, shiatsu, and trigger point therapy.
Since starting this practice I have taken a few continuing ed classes in cupping and Fascial Counterstrain. The Fascial Counterstrain courses include: Foundations of FCS, Lymphatic and Vein I & II, and Arterial. FCS works with specific systems of the body where the fascia is holding inflammation causing the muscles around the area to tighten to protect the area.
I'm already seeing a huge difference in some of my clients that I have been using deep tissue on for years but there was never much relief. This has been a huge relief on my body because deep tissue has caused my acute pains to become chronic. As my symptoms increased, I felt it was hypocritical of me to not pursue a technique more ergonomically friendly. Help me help you!
There are many classes of FCS and I have only just begun so overtime I may be able to get to the root cause of what's causing your pain. My goal is to continue my education in FCS and to continue to give massages to create balance and positivity in the body by relieving stress and anxiety, alleviating pain, and improving sleep.
