"Smile, breathe and go slowly"
-Thich Nhat Hahn
Our modern lifestyles are often hectic and stressful, which can take its toll on our bodies and lead to many health conditions.
Therapeutic massage can help facilitate healing and recovery for muscle pain and tension brought on by poor posture, repetative use and/or injury.
Regular massage treatments can also reduce anxiety, improve circulation and restore health and wellbeing.
Be good to yourself and relax, you're in good hands.

Wellness Massage
Also known as swedish massage. Among many other benefits, wellness massage promotes health, relaxation and overall well-being.

about me
I am a licensed, nationally certified (NCTMB) massage therapist, also certified in prenatal massage.
As a graduate of the Soma Institute of Chicago I was fortunate to gain extensive knowledge of different massage modalities and applications in both a clinical and wellness setting. Recently, I have participated in a variety of massage events with organizations such as
Hubbard Street Dance Company, Chicago Area Runners' Association and the American Society for Clinical Pathology.
I very much seek to focus my treatment on the body as a whole rather than the specific condition, helping you to reach, and maintain, your health and wellness goals.
