Training: I attended massage therapy school in Post Falls, Idaho from 2009-2010 where I received 1,000 hours of in person training. That included 250 hours of clinical hands on massage, course work in Musculoskeletal, Anatomy and Physiology, Oriental Medicine, Pathology, Business, Ethics, CPR first aid and more. I also received specialized training in different modalities such as Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Hot Stone therapy, Prenatal, Trigger Point, Thai, aromatherapy, spa treatments, and more.
My Techniques: My massage is always tailored to what the clients individual needs and wants are. I like to combine relaxation with therapeutic deep tissue techniques as well as some gentle range of motion and stretching. I also offer cupping therapy, use of hot and cold stones, and warm towels.
About me: I moved from Idaho to Arizona in 2018. In Idaho I worked doing massage therapy in a chiropractic office for over eight years where my knowledge and technique fully developed. I enjoy furthering my education, there is always something new to learn and grow from! In my free time I am an outdoors enthusiast ranging from hiking to fishing, hunting, backpacking, gardening and spending time with my dogs and horses. My husband and I enjoy remodeling our home as DIYers and working around our property, there are always projects going on around here!
