Her treatments are deeply relaxing with therapeutic intent and a holistic approach to massage therapy. She has trained in Craniosacral therapy and Thai massage, both of which she integrates into her treatments along with general Swedish massage, myofascial release, hydrotherapy, diaphragmatic breathing and hot and cold stone therapy.
Creating a safe and supportive space is elemental in her practice. Making sure clients feel supported and seen is a priority during the intake and throughout the treatment.
