I attended the University of Vermont, earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Animal Science. I then attended the Swedish Institute in NYC and earned a Diploma in Massage Therapy. I am licensed in New York State to practice Massage Therapy and have been practicing for 26 years. I have always maintained a private practice but also have experience working with chiropractic and physical therapy professionals as well as spending time on the staff and as a manager at the Spa at Mandarin Oriental New York.
I incorporate many modalities in my work which tends to be therapeutic or medical in nature. I address specific issues within the context of a full body massage, using myofascial, medical and energy techniques to help resolve them. Along with my hands on techniques I try to help clients identify the causes of discomfort which may be in posture or daily habits to change patterns and avoid recurring problems.
I am certified in Medical Massage and incorporate aromatherapy in my work through my special line of aromatherapy massage oils.
I am available to see clients with their own tables in their homes in Manhattan by appointment only.
I look forward to hearing from you.
