Therapeutic Touch + Mindful Movement

Therapeutic Touch

Massage Therapy | NYS LMT, BCTMB, AMTA 

Massage offers me the opportunity to step back into my body.

The patterns and stresses of any daily practice can accumulate and can lead to tension, strain, and discomfort. The resulting physical distortions and mental distractions can prevent even the most disciplined human from being present in their body and functioning optimally in the moment. 

Focused and informed therapeutic touch will leave you better equipped to move back into you body and out into your life.  With an open dialogue and appropriate technique, I work to positively impact your body, mind, and mood as well as your ability to function fully and with presence.

Mindful Movement

Yoga | RYT-500

Yoga helps me to step more keenly into my life.

As a physical and philosophical practice, yoga offers me the opportunity to discipline my attention so that my attention does not come to discipline me.

As a teacher, I believe in the value of sustainable practice. I believe in superb alignment. I believe in fitting the pose into your body rather than fitting your body into the pose. I believe that it’s possible to sweat and laugh at the same time.
