I am a nationally certified reflexologist and massage therapist. My study of reflexology began with the American Academy of Reflexology in 1999 and I received my national certification from the American Reflexology Certification Board in 2000.


My massage training was done at the Academy of Somatic Healing Arts in Norcross, GA. I maintain my national certification from the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork through continuing education in massage and bodywork techniques.

 

Since my philosophy is grounded in personalized, total body integration, I also obtained certification in CranioSacral Therapy, Morter HealthSystem's Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique (B.E.S.T.) as an Elite Inner Circle Master, and hold the designation of Reiki Master.


My philosophy is centered on client results:

  • Each client is treated with the same ethical approach to their individual needs.
  • Each client is unique and has the right to be heard and treated as they ask.
  • I continue to educate myself in the latest techniques and research in order to provide the highest level of results for my clients.

 

I have been nationally certified by the National Certification Board in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork since 2000.
