Therapeutic Massage sessions generally involves full body massage or focus on specific areas of the body. Pressure can vary. The intention of the session is to create a relaxing experience for the nervous system to settle and circulation to improve, in order to experience an overall improvement of wellbeing .

Structural Energetic Therapy is a unique type of bodywork that aims to find the root of the pain, usually found in structural imbalances in the body. Through advanced techniques the soft tissue is released from the deep core spiral twist in the body in order to bring optimal support to stressed joints, organs, and connective tissue as well as the spine and discs. Various positioning on the table is used and client will be draped appropriately at all times is welcome to wear bathing suit type attire to aid in movement.  Due to the deep releases in the muscle tissue during these sessions clients also report feeling deeply relaxed. The intention of the session is to rehabilitate the body long term and help clients live optimally.


Before a bodywork session you should  always fill out an intake form or keep me updated on any changes to medications, surgeries, or issues regarding your health . 

Before and after a bodywork session it's important to stay well hydrated, this includes water or  herbal tea intake rather than alcohol, soda, or caffeinated beverages.

I also recommend, if well tolerated, epsom salt bath after or infrared sauna to aid in detoxification and soreness that can sometimes present temporarily, in addition to limiting intensive exercise or travel for 24 hours after a session, if possible, in order to let your body integrate.


Everyone and anyone wanting to live and feel more balanced.  Precautions and customizations are needing to be considered with each individual, so please discuss any concerns or considerations during or before your appointment.
