This sharing of my life is the "condensed" long version of how I came to begin my Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork practice. Grab a cup of tea and get cozy. I am drawn to examination and reflection on concepts of human evolution, wellness and spirituality unconditioned by theological dogma. I choose to explore innate wisdom, if you will.
To begin my introduction to session pricing, all body care techniques and modalities are included in my treatment sessions through my personal approach to body care. All multi-session plans include the experience of "everything". Treatment sessions are available in a variety of formats from single session visits to multi-session plans.
Not feeling well? When do you reconsider your appointment? There are times when daily stress and routine movement contribute to achiness in your body. Emotional highs and lows inspired by stressful events in your life contrubute to achiness in your body. Daily, weekly, monthly life issues, generally, contribute to achiness in your body.
I believe the best referal is presented by the testimonial received directly from the people I've helped. I am honored to help and happy to share with you some of the written testimonials sent to me by my clients. I tried Shirley as a last resort before going back to the medical doctor and probably giving in and letting him cut me open.

I have been going to Shirley for about 5+ years now, and no one compares to her skills. She is truly a talented individual. She always finds knots I didn't know I had and gets rid of them. She understands how everything is related in the body and what to do to help you to feel your constant best. Not to mention that she is one of the kindest people I know!

I have been going there for over 10 years. She can find your stress and sore spots before you do. She has helped me with torn and stressed muscles which has always got me functioning after a few sessions. My health has improved, this is saying a lot from a guy who has physically abused his body over the years. I highly recommend her and she is a really good person to work with.

After 6 months of coping with severe pain in both feet I decided to do something about it. A friend of mine suggested Therapeutic Massage; not wishing to go the medical route I made an appointment. After just one treatment the pain in both of my feet which had become my new normal and limited my daily activities was nearly gone. Since then I've made follow up appointments and totally pain free without expensive of custom inserts for my shoes or prescription medication! Shirley is amazing and I recommend anyone experiencing chronic pain to give Therapeutic Massage a try as well.
