Opening Spaces

Specialties

I provide bodywork services that relax, reorganize and rejuvenate your body for optimal health and to enhance your state of well-​being. I specialize in Rolf Structural Integration (also called Rolfing), Deep Tissue Blended Bodywork and CranioSacral Therapy. While each technique takes its own specific path, all work toward the same goal of holistic wellness, whole body alignment and experiencing well-​being free from pain and tension. We work with your body to achieve lasting change and release deep holding patterns. Some of the benefits are reduced pain, tension and holding patterns, increased energy, improved flexibility, posture and athletic performance as well as increased mobility and sense of well-​being.

History

Established in 2006.

I began massage therapy in 1995 and completed professional HHP degree in 2007. Throughout, I studied various energy, muscle & soft tissue techniques as well as diving deep within my own psyche to explore the realms of the body, mind and spirit. I am a Certified Rolf Structural Integrator from IPSB College, where I studied with Ed Maupin, one of Ida Rolf’s first 8 students. Additionally, I have advanced education in CranioSacral Therapy, Deep Tissue techniques, SomatoEmotional Integration and Pregnancy Massage.
