We have the pleasure of working with amazing individuals, organizations and corporations.

What has always impressed me about you is the total concentration you bring to massage.

R.W

You radiate warmth and kindness. These qualities combined with superb massage therapy skills
are why I think you are the best.

You have a great “touch”. You seem to intuit through your touch what I need, and that makes me
feel very safe and, after the massage, very relaxed.

K.L.

From my perspective you individualize the massage to the person’s needs.

Regular therapeutic massage compliments my well rounded active lifestyle. For me, a massage therapist must have a combination of training, compassion, joy and intuitive sensitivity.
