Hello,

After 10 years of learning some techniques in energy work with Crystal Therapy and Polarity Therapy I attended the Medical Arts Massage School in Raleigh, NC and graduated in August, 2002. In February, 2003 I opened my private practice in N. Raleigh after leaving the restaurant business and never looked back. In 2005, I started working at the Duke University Diet and Fitness Center for 10 years in addition to my private practice.

I call my technique Intuitive Deep Tissue Massage, believing that muscles can be relieved of tightness, stiffness without causing pain and residual pain. I take a slow, deliberate approach to each area of muscles needing relief. Providing a calming, relaxing massage is as important as providing a therapeutic massage. My intention is to provide both.

I’m grateful, honored and privileged to have many clients that see me on a regular basis, (at least once a month) for years.

I moved to Graham in January, 2018 and I’m still excited to have a career as a massage therapist and am thrilled to have the opportunity to bring my technique to Calming Hands Massage Therapy.
