I literally wrote the book on Myofascial Massage. Myofascial can improve chronic inflammation, habitual postures and old traumas that have not resolved through ordinary massage. - Lymphatic Drainage – $110 per 90 minutes
Gently and rhythmically moves lymph through the body. (1 and 1/2 hour) LD promotes rapid recovery from surgeries, injury rehabilitation, reduces swelling and discomfort and strengthens immunity. LD facials (1 hour) hydrate the skin, rejuvenate underlying tissues and accelerate the appearance of youthful vitality. - Visceral manipulation – $110 per 90 minutes
Frees organs (viscera) that have become anchored or immobile by fascial (connective tissue) tension and ligaments that attach organs to the internal cavities. Very helpful for PMS, constipation, bloating and other digestive and hormonal issues.

ONLINE massage and movement coaching:
- One-on-one coaching in foam and ball rolling (self-massage) – I have been teaching detailed manual therapy techniques for 30+ years. The sessions are customized and facilitated sessions where you learn to place and manipulate your hands, foam or ball rollers, cups, gua sha or other tools to address specific needs. Together we figure out the most effective way to stretch or strengthen a muscle, soften fascial adhesions and increase ROM. For instance, I can walk you through a Golgi Tendon Organ technique to release spasms or demonstrate how to “surf” and stimulate lymphatic flow to decrease inflammation and speed healing.
($55 per hour long private ZOOM session) - One-on-one fascial unwinding or movement re-education I have 40+ years of teaching stretching and strengthening techniques. These are not typical lead and follow sessions. I offer customized and facilitated movement re-education and fascial unwinding. ZOOM allows me to observe as you practice so that together we can develop and refine a unique and flexible exercise protocol designed specifically for you to address tightness, lack of movement or pain.

Swedish Massage is relaxing and therapeutic. It makes use of an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve circulation. The relaxation from this type of bodywork leads to relief from aches and pains, decreased stress, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility. - Infant and Child – $55 per 30 minutes
