MASSAGE THERAPISTS
MASSAGE THERAPISTS
I am a licensed massage therapist from Ashmead School of Massage since 2003. I have a Master’s degree in science and acupuncture, and a bachelor’s degree in natural health medicine, from Bastyr University.
I specialize in clinical injury treatment style therapy, and incorporate different styles with massage therapy and cupping, to achieve a mixed modality therapeutic approach toward clinical injury treatment. Utilizing ‘painless-needling’ techniques and silicone-style cupping to achieve a form of myo-fascial release, which help to release deep muscular and connective tissue tightness, while limiting the stereotypical markings that are common with traditional glass cupping.
Five years ago, I made the decision to pursue massage therapy at the Colorado School of Healing Arts. Licensed in both Colorado and Washington, I found my style evolved with my environment.
My approach to massage incorporates structural integration, a whole body practice, allowing the structure of the body to work together. Sports, neuromuscular (nervous + muscle connection), and myofascial release are my specialties. Guiding the body into an environment where healing and/or relaxation can begin, with treatment in mind. I am excited to share my healing art with Harbor Square Athletic Club and look forward to supporting you on your wellness journey.
As a massage therapist of over 30 years, It continues to be a joy working at HSAC for over 20 years. I am a graduate of the Swedish Institute School of Massage in New York City, and am licensed in both New York and Washington State. In the earlier part of my profession, I had the privilege of working with a New York neurologist, who was on the AMA board, to conduct a study of how massage therapy affected his patients' pain levels. It was a study that nationally changed how the medical profession viewed massage. The study concluded that massage therapy works!
The modalities I use are Swedish technique applied to various pressure requested by clients, including deep tissue treatment; medical massage, injury treatments (I am a PIP provider for auto accident claims), prenatal massage, people living with cancer, aromatherapy, 30 minute Face Massage, and kinesiology taping. My goal with every client is to always address what their individual needs are. To all my clients at HSAC, thank you for letting me be part of your wellness journey!
I am a Board-Certified Massage Therapist with 20 years’ experience who studied at Mueller College of Holistic Studies, San Diego, CA, achieving their highest degree of Holistic Health Practitioner in 2004. Having studied both Eastern and Western modalities of massage, my expertise is Therapeutic Massage, an amalgamation of many years of learning styles and working experience. This includes Aromatherapy, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, Acupressure, Cupping and more.
Before becoming a massage therapist, I was a Certified Medical Assistant studying nursing. I have a breadth of anatomy knowledge and my intuitive abilities and experience allow me to focus on the clients’ core issues and facilitate the release of tension and stress on various levels. I believe in the holistic approach. Massage and wellness are not just a job for me; it is a lifestyle and work that I do from my heart. Together with the client, I wish to help create harmony with body, mind, and spirit. I look forward to partnering with you on your wellness journey.
As a massage therapist for over 25 years, I’ve worked with clients from all walks of life to assist them in having more ease with their bodies. I believe that living our best lives comes from having a great relationship with our bodies -- not treating them like an irritation we have to put up
with!
In every session I strive to listen to my clients and their bodies to design a massage that will meet them where they are at and support them in their healing and wellness goals. I am well-versed in injury treatment, deep tissue, Swedish massage, and fascial release techniques, but
my particular expertise is in craniosacral therapy, slow and gentle unwinding techniques, and energetic therapies. I have additional training working with the nervous system to reduce hypervigilance, embodied trauma responses, and PTSD. The gentle nature of the work makes it safe and effective for those with complex health issues, pregnancy, or a preference for light touch or receiving bodywork fully clothed.
I graduated from Utting School of Massage in 1997, and have taken a wide variety of continuing education, including craniosacral therapy training through Bastyr University, and energetic bodywork training and certification through Access Consciousness®. I am honored and delighted to be a part of the Harbor Square Athletic Club team!
I have been a massage therapist for 20 years. I studied massage at Ashmead college in Seattle. I also have an undergraduate degree in psychology (University of Montana).
I integrate Swedish massage, relaxation, deep tissue, and injury treatment modalities into my work. I also do prenatal massage.
In this fast-paced world, body work is therapeutic and extremely beneficial to our well-being. Massage connects our mind to our body and helps with pain, decreases stress, increases relaxation, and promotes recovery.
I will listen to you and work with you to address your needs.
I am excited to join the team at Harbor Square!
