Theraputic Massage Sessions to nurture the Body, Heart and Mind

Come to beautiful Kealakekua Bay on the Big Island of Hawaii and let me and guide you into a deeply restful presence that therapeutically opens your body’s healing abilities and replenishes the entire being, leaving you feeling relaxed, revitalized and whole.

My Style: Listening to your individual needs, I combine my understanding of anatomy with compassion and heart-centered warmth to customize each session especially for you.  My approach to bodywork is influenced by Taoist mind-body practices and 5 Elements Theory.  My work is characterized by slow, nurturing long strokes & deep anatomical detail work, making the session both therapeutic and relaxing. I also use rhythmic rocking, compressions, stretching, & holding to encourage deep relaxation so the body, heart and mind can find its own equilibrium, increased ease and openness.

Modalities: As appropriate, I blend different modalities into therapeutic and relaxing bodywork sessions.  After sessions I offer self-care recommendations including stretches, yoga, subtle body practices and qigong.
