Meet Our Therapists

 All of our massage therapists have a minimum of 700 hours of training, 1 year of professional experience, and are licensed by the state of Arizona.  Each therapist also has additional specialized training and experience, with individual specialties in stress and tension reduction, pain management, injury recovery, and sports performance.
    
It would be our pleasure to put our experience and skill to work for you!

I am a seasoned massage therapist and bring a solid skill set to my practice. I am fluent in a full range of massage techniques from Swedish and Lomi Lomi to deep tissue and trigger point.  I blend techniques to tailor each treatment according to the client’s presenting challenges and their intentions for the session.  My advanced studies are more energy and trauma release oriented, founded in the principles of integrative craniosacral work and polarity therapy.
In the course of my years in practice, I have supported clients in overcoming challenges to the mind, body, emotions and the soul.
 
I listen well and value the importance of communication with my clients about assessments and treatment plan proposals. Each session ends with self-care solutions to keep the energy moving, expedite their own healing and get profound, long lasting results.
 
I am grateful to join the stellar team here at Bodies in Balance.  It is an honor to offer up my practice in service for the community here in Flagstaff.

Having worked with patients to help them ease the stress and tension in their lives by performing and applying Reflexology to their hands and feet, I am dedicated to providing clients with the best care possible.  I like to help clients get the knots out, and integrate Swedish Relaxation, Deep Tissue, and gentle stretching. Each massage is designed for individual client’s needs and I sometimes integrate specialties such as Hot Stone Massage for total body relaxation. I often provide clients with guidance and information about techniques for postural improvement, as well as stretching, strengthening, relaxation and rehabilitative exercises to help clients achieve a pain free lifestyle.

My passion is helping clients relieve pain and restore physical and mental calmness through skilled and compassionate touch.  I specialize in injury recovery and have experience working with a range of pain conditions, including sports injuries. I especially enjoy helping people progress to meet specific goals and needs, whether that means alleviating pain or achieving an improved sense of well-being.
​
My bodywork style is slow and deliberate, combining the blended techniques of Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Therapy (trigger point), Structural, Myofascial work and other massage modalities. During my sessions, I like to create a space for others to reconnect to their authentic selves and physical bodies — all through the healing powers of bodywork and therapeutic touch.

I love helping clients relieve pain and improve their mobility.   I worked with a chiropractor for many years and have experience with a wide range of injuries and pain conditions, including sciatica, low back pain, shoulder injuries, headaches, and neck pain.   

I also have experience helping athletes recover from sports injuries such as tendonitis, IT Band tightness/pain, and strained muscles.

In my sessions, I integrate Sedona Swedish Relaxation, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy, and gentle stretching to mold every massage to each individual client’s needs. I’ve continued my education with specialties such as Neck Release and Cranial Unwinding, which help people who suffer from headaches and migraines.

 I’ve also studied Low Back Release which reduces lower body aches as well as sciatic pain. These therapies have proven helpful to cyclists, runners, swimmers, as well as those who spend a good portion of their day sitting in front of a computer. 

 My training and experience helped me achieve a greater understanding of the total body connection so I often suggest stretching and postural corrections to help clients live pain free.
