I have been working in massage since 2004. I started by getting certifications at the St. Croix Center for the Healing Arts. These included Sports, Deep Tissue, Integrative, Introductory Reflexology, & Thai massage as well as introductory aromatherapy & body wrap. After being certified, I practiced on a part time basis for 6 years. In 2010, I attended the Therapeutic Massage course at WITC in New
Richmond, WI and graduated with honors in May 2011. I have since continued my education by increasing my knowledge of Thai massage with a Thai on the Table class in October 2011. In August of 2011, I passed the Wisconsin state licensing test(MBLEX). As a result, I received my license in August as well and dedicated myself to a full-time massage practice. In 2017, I started my journey into aquatic therapy, specifically Watsu. This therapy offers clients a weightless environment to be worked on in warm soothing water. I use one hand to balance the client and the other hand to direct gentle rocking, stretching, bending, or arching movements. I recommend this therapy for anyone at any age. I became certified to offer Watsu in June 2018. I believe that everyone can benefit on some level from bodywork. My goal is to educate people on the many health benefits & stress reducing aspects of having a regular massage appointment. I enjoy assisting people to overcome pain and discomfort caused by tight muscles and hectic lifestyles. Outside of massage, I enjoy riding my bicycle outdoors in all seasons, competing in running races and triathlons, as well as participating in classes at the New Richmond Area Centre. I also like to spend time regularly with my family. We like to go camping, rollerblading, and grill out in our back yard.
