Welcome!
Massage Therapy is an absolutely vital part of your... vitality!
Why Choose Massage?
I believe massage, when combined with intentional and compassionate self care, can and will help you achieve a higher level of well being, far beyond relaxation.
Massage Reduces Stress, Relieves Pain, Improves Circulation, Eases Pregnancy Discomforts, Calms Anxiety and Induces Healthful Sleep. (And, it feels, really, really good!)
Reduces Stress:
Massage quiets the nervous system, relaxes the mind and provides an overall sense of well being. It helps to replenish oxygen and nutrients to cells and tissues that are often depleted during times of stress.
Relieves Pain:
Massage effectively reduces pain and can help eliminate both chronic and acute muscle tension. Massage gently stretches and realigns the muscle tissues and releases trigger points. Headaches, backaches and neck spasms are all improved with regular massage.
Improves Circulation:
Massage increases blood and oxygen flow to the heart and muscles, and aids in lymphatic fluid flow and drainage throughout the body, supporting toxin release.
Massage is also wonderful for relieving pregnancy discomforts from hormonal and physical changes, and helps to induce peaceful, restful sleep. Recent research suggests massage is highly beneficial for geriatric, oncology and HIV positive patients.
Why Choose Me as Your Massage Therapist?
All of my education and experience has contributed to my unique, wholistic approach to healing and wellness. Each and every massage session should be the best session I can provide. It is a shared responsibility - just as you expect me to give you my very best effort, I expect you to be proactive and speak your mind. Please know you are encouraged to help me provide you with the best session possible.
Massage is an important part of your healthcare and wellness routine. Massage is healthcare that feels like a luxury. Lucky you!

I received my massage therapy training at CCMT in Westport, CT, the oldest and most reputable school dedicated soley to massage therapy education. I have continued to hone my skills with level one certification in Cranio-Sacral Therapy with the Upledger Institute and independent educators across the Northeast.
