I was born and raised in Germany. It was there that I also met and married my husband, Gary.
His work has presented us with the opporunity to live in several different countries over the last 15 years.. We love traveling and have enjoyed every country we have lived in.

 My daughter Emilie was born in Brussels (Belgium) and my son Gary Noah was born in Mexico City (Mexico).

In 2006, we moved toAustralia, where I studied and became certified in massage therapy.

After completing my education, I worked in a physiotherapy clinic. In this partnership I gained experience in a range of conditions including: back and neck injuries, motor vehicle accidents, sports and workplace injuries. My responsibilities also included sports-massage (pre and post event) and therapeutic massage.

After returning to the United States, I became nationally and State of Virginia certified.

Since I have always had an interest in alternative medicine and natural healing, I have integrated Aroma Therapy, Reflexology, Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Hot Rocks into my massage sessions.

 Speaking with you ,will provide me with the information necessary to assess your needs and personalize your massage treatment.

Another part of my massage business is infant massage education.

In class: parents, grandparents and caregivers learn how to bond with their babies,  and help them with reflux, colic and sleeping problems to promote healthy growth.

This is also a great opportunity to talk to other adults with similar problems and in similar situations. Overall  they enjoy some relaxing one-on-one time with their baby.

 For a complete bio including my educational backround and approach to massage therapy, simply give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you.

 

• On the first appointment, please come in 5 minutes early to fill out a Client Information Form. 
• It is best to avoid eating a large meal right before a massage. 
• If you are pregnant or under the care of a physician, please bring written approval for massage.  
• The client will be left in private to undress and drape with a sheet or large towel. Only the area being massaged is uncovered to keep the client warm and respect his or her privacy. Your comfort is always my first concern.
• Please don't bring children to your appointment.
