My Why
Whenever asked the hypothetical question, “If you could have any luxury on a regular basis, what would it be?” my response, without hesitation was “a daily massage”.
My personal journey of self-care and self-discovery began after a health scare. In the spring of 2016, I suffered an injury that left me housebound for three months and in a position of being almost completely dependent on others. Through meditation, tai chi and massage, I began my healing process and the spark for knowledge in these areas followed. I had played around with the notion of going to school for massage therapy for quite some time, but there always seemed to be an obstacle in my way. The logical, default decision was to use my college degree to gain employment. During my recovery, I went through a lot of soul searching about what I truly wanted to do with my life. I felt that, maybe, my life was trying to tell me that something needed to shift.
I became Level 1 Reiki attuned and found The Center for Conscious Caregiving by participating in their weekly Reiki shares. I found eastern modalities enlightening, as well as offering physical relief. The kindnesses shown to me by people who have helped me along the way has humbled me. I want to pay forward those acts of kindness and I believe, through massage, I can help others in their healing process. Earning my Massage license (LMT), Reiki Level 2 certification and certifications in various areas of massage has brought my journey full circle.
I embrace a holistic approach to wellness and am an advocate for self-care. I know firsthand the benefits of massage and I want to be a healing artist for others to help them along their own unique journey. I love the idea of creating a calm and soothing experience for someone. To do it in a professional capacity is a gift. I believe a good massage provides not only relief from physical pain and discomfort, but a spiritual cleansing that rebalances you and allows you to begin anew. Having the privilege to help others achieve this feeling is the reason I am a Massage Therapist.
