I chose to pursue massage therapy after experiencing the benefits first-hand. I had sustained injuries from working manual labor and powerlifting in my early and mid-20’s. After receiving effective massage treatment sessions, I was soon on my way to full range of movement and being pain-free. Having experienced these changes I began my journey into massage therapy. I wanted to build a career helping people whose lives and mobility were impacted and hindered by pain. Taking a scientific and evidence-based approach, I have been able to help my clients reduce their pain and help prevent further injury. I have worked alongside several Physical Therapists and Chiropractors for 6 years. I have been fortunate to have had their mentorship along the way. I utilize Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue, MFR (also known as Myofascial Release), Neuromuscular Therapy, Cupping, Kinesio Taping, Gaston and MET (Muscle Energy Technique).
