I have been a practicing massage therapist and certified Neuromuscular therapist since 2003.  Over the past 20+ years, I have had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including spa and chiropractic offices, before I opened my own practice in 2005.  In 2011 I was given the opportunity to expand my business by taking on Therapeutic Massage of Texas.  From 2016 to 2020 I had the good fortune to share space with talented and like-minded therapists at Therapeutic Massage Associates, LLC.  In 2020 I brought my practice back to it’s roots and currently work from home.

​

In 2023 I began to work privately with a very talented Pilates Instructor and fell in love with the movement and concepts of the work.  My Neuromuscular therapy trained brain recognized it as the active, movement based, complement to my passive, massage based, practice.  In 2024 I began my journey to become a Pilates Instructor with the intention of helping my clients maintain and improve movement patterns and posture.

​

My work has always been based in correcting postural imbalances brought on by daily living or injury.  By relaxing hyper contracted “tight” muscles and waking up their overstretched “tight” counterpart, the body is brought back to a neutral balanced state.  Adding Pilates builds strength and reinforces neutral posture. This alleviates symptoms of pain and often addresses the root cause.

​

I am Certified in Neuromuscular Therapy and Orthopedic Massage (James Waslaski).  I have advanced training in Myofascial Release (Barnes technique), Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Cranio-Sacral therapy and many other techniques that I use in my practice.

​

From 2005 through 2011, I instructed students in Neuromuscular Therapy, Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology for Massage Therapists, Kinesiology for Massage Therapists, Postural Assessment for Massage Therapists, Myofascial Release, and Hot Stone Massage.   I wish to create exceptional therapists that are knowledgeable and proficient, in order to better help clients.  Therapists should have the skills to communicate effectively with other providers in both the Medical and Alternative Medical communities.
