 Increase the peace while I work WITH your muscles to melt pain and stress away. Using just the right amount of pressure (think "delicious discomfort"), I combine gentle stretches and active movement to achieve lasting results. I can also show you self-massage and stretching to extend session benefits. Enjoy blends of:

• Deep Circulatory (Swedish)
• Deep Tissue Sculpting (slow, melting muscles)
• Sensory Repatterning (passive joint movement)
• Neuromuscular Therapy (specific trigger-point work for pain relief)
• Structural Integration-style (pin-and-stretch with active movement)
• Table Thai Massage ("passive yoga")
• Sports
• Prenatal
• Infant and Toddler Massage Classes
• Skin Rolling

 My passion for bodywork lies in the intersection of the physical and emotional. My specialty is Relational Somatics, an approach involving the therapeutic relationship as one of the healing tools in bodywork. See my website www.bodywork4peace.com for more details. RS sessions are available to those wanting to take a deeper approach to mind-body growth and healing to address issues from everyday stress to trauma.

Offering pain relief and relaxing mobile massage since 2010 for all ages.
