A Safe Place for Everyone

I discovered massage therapy later in life. I’d never even had a professional massage until I was in  my late 30’s. Even then, I didn’t consider it as a career choice - I was  too busy working in the financial industry.  Then someone introduced me  to Reiki, which still isn’t massage, but is such a quiet, powerful way  of healing that I wanted to start sharing it with the world. I lived in  Florida at the time, where a license to touch is required if you want to  practice Reiki as a business. To get a license to touch, I could go to nursing school or massage  school. Since I’m not fond of blood, my choice was clear. From the first  day of Anatomy and Physiology I knew I’d found a new path and I was  eager to follow it through. Along with Reiki, I learned massage styles including Swedish, deep tissue, hot stone, and Thai.  I graduated in  2010 and completed my Reiki Master training in 2011. After graduating I added certification in Nurturing the Mother (Pregnancy and Postnatal);  Bamboo Fusion; Lymphatic Detox; and Integrative Reflexology. Since  embarking on this new path, I feel I have changed and grown in ways I  never imagined. I look forward to meeting each new client and love  seeing my return clients as they begin to relax, breathe, and heal. 

I currently live in Gloucester County, Virginia with family and four cats. Only one of the cats is mine - I'm not the crazy cat lady that I sometimes resemble. My interests include music, theatre, coloring, and random artistic efforts. I try to laugh as much as I can, and I hope you do, too!
