Born in Colorado and oldest of 5 surviving children, I grew up in a very small town in New Mexico. After completing my Master's Degree in Communication Studies from NMSU, I decided I was ready for a change and took a leap of faith. I moved to Sacramento in 2002 and Livermore in 2016 and have enjoyed making California my home.
I began my training at the Healing Arts Institute in Citrus Heights, CA to become a Massage Therapist. At the same time I began studying CranioSacral therapy from the Upledger Institute. Since starting the journey, I haven't looked back and I recently took another leap of faith and left my corporate full time job to pursue my passion.

Services
Gift Certificates and packages may also be purchased online or in person. Payment is due at the time of each session and will be forfeited in the event of client dismissal due to improper or suggestive language and/or behavior. Any check returned for non-sufficient funds will be charged a $35 service charge.
Each session is individually tailored to the needs of the client that day and could include combinations of the various modalities I practice. Sometimes this feels like deep work and other times this feels like very light and relaxing work. I bring a willingness to listen to the body's messages, an open mind, and an open heart to each session with a client.
CranioSacral Therapy is a light touch approach that releases tension and restriction in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction and improve health and performance. You remain fully clothed as you relax on a comfortable, padded table. This modality uses gentle touch, starting with about the weight of a nickel, to evaluate your internal environment and release any restrictions found.
As a gentle, non-invasive approach, CranioSacral therapy can also be effective for children of all ages beginning as a newborn. It can help children overcome congenital and acquired health challenges and prevent new ones from occurring. It has been effective at improving and maintaining a healthy immune system.
Therapeutic Massage (Swedish, Relaxation, Side Lying, Prenatal, and others) is perfect for relaxation as well as soft tissue work. This is what most people think of when they think of massage therapy. My style of massage uses a combination of techniques tailored to your individual needs.
It is my firm belief that deep tissue work does not have to hurt and I use many techniques to relax muscles and work through the fascial adhesions that can often cause pain and dysfunction.A therapeutic massage with me can be focused on relaxation, specific and focused work, or anything in between.
