Massage Therapy

I do specialized bodywork to address pain-specific issues, and body-mind integration. This form of bodywork draws from over 10,000 hours of clinical experience in chiropractor and acupuncture clinics.

I no longer do general massage.

After so many years of clinical work, I'm now focusing my skills on clinical issues, such as pain-specific massage and Body-Mind Integration work. This kind of work addresses the somatic connection between emotional and physical pain.

Integration work is based on the idea that emotional distress can lodge in the body causing pain and physical illnesses.

I see private clients and accept referrals from psychiatrists, naturopaths, psychologists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists.

My approach to massage is clinical and therapeutic.

Touch is deeply nurturing and life-affirming. It can address a wide variety of needs,
from healing to prevention.

I will personalize each session to meet your needs and goals. Each session is a sacred space for transformation. Rapport, intuition, compassion, and respect for process guide my approach to each client and aid the journey through the body into the self.

Benefits of bodywork include:

Relaxation and stress management
Drug-free pain relief
Facilitation of healing
Promotion of blood circulation, lymph, and ki (vital energy)
Improved flexibility, mobility, and posture
Increased focus, awareness, performance, creativity, vitality and self-esteem
Complementary to other forms of care such as chiropractic, acupuncture, psychotherapy, dentistry and Western medical treatments with or without medication.
Supplemental support of recovery programs dealing with all phases of addiction
Access to self-truth and body-wisdom by restoring the respectful "trialogue" between body, mind and spirit.
Personal empowerment with skills you can use at home and work
