A great passion of mine has been becoming a Holy Fire® III Karuna® Reiki Master. It has granted me the opportunity to connect, strengthen and utilize my empath, healer and psychic intuitive gifts to better help my clients to help heal their mind, body and soul. I am very honored and amazed to be part of this quest to be of service to others and to help others heal themselves.
My first love will always be Massage Therapy, as a profession it started for me in January 2005. I received my license at A.M.T.T: Academy for Massage Therapy Training having enrolled in the Mastery Comprehensive 600 hour Massage Mastery Program.
I fell in love with massage when I was at Spa D'Sante where I worked with a Vichy Shower (wet room) providing body scrubs and mud masks, facials, and hot stone massages but soon I realized I was wanting more knowledge and experience in a different setting. I found it working at Massage Envy where I received more clientel needing specialized relief from stress and work related repetitive actions such as tension headaches, carpal tunnel, and trigger points causing referred pain. In September 2011 Restorative Healing was born. For several years I was fortunate to have worked with Nancy Brewington at Hands N Harmony Wellness Center. With her guidance I was able to focus on my craft and really hone in on my skills.
Through my time and experience I have developed my own particular style of massage which includes techniques from many different types of modalities that I have been trained and certified in. I am capable of delivering a variety of sessions such as relaxing/calming, deep tissue/therapeutic focusing on sore troubled areas as well as light to deeper assisted stretching.
