In the late 90's I was experiencing very strong neck/shoulder pain and began to receive massage on a regular basis. It provided me with incredible relief. I was amazed and immediately wanted to learn more about this healing art.
I made the decision to go back to school and graduated from the NY College of Health Professions with an Academic Excellence award, and an associate’s degree in Massage Therapy in 2005. NY Bodywork therapists must meet the most stringent educational standards in the U.S., which includes a 1000-hour program plus internship. Ultimately, it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. As a practitioner of this ancient healing profession, I feel blessed and grateful. By giving and receiving massage, over the years, I have become a more balanced and centered person and I didn't miss the corporate world that was stressing me out!
I have a special interest in Deep tissue/Trigger point and Medical therapy and head, neck and shoulder issues, as well as postural correction. Continuing Education: Pelvic Girdle assessment & treatment, Trigger point/Taut Band therapy, Head/neck deep chronic and acute injury, Orthopedic techniques for neck, Oncology massage, Therapeutic stretching and Lymphatic massage therapy.

As a child you could find me barefoot outside wading in a creek, playing in the woods with my siblings, helping my grandmother in her garden, feeding the chickens and such. I grew up in the foothills of the Appalachia's where most folks had low incomes but knew how to live off the land to survive. This was the beginning of my love and passion for natural medicine.
I moved to North Carolina married and had seven children. I wanted my babies to be healthy, but I was on a budget so I grew a garden and learned about herbs. Through my studies, I discovered more natural ways to give birth and decided to become a doula. I worked with midwives in both home and hospital settings and developed a passion to help women have their babies safely and hopefully easier with less recovery time. This is when I decided that massage would be a great addition to my doula work.
In 2011, I decided to enroll at Body Therapy Institute in Siler City. Since graduating I worked in a variety of places: spas, wellness centers, with chiropractors, as well as running my own business. I specialize in deep tissue and sports massage and I am certified in hot stone, aromatherapy, trigger point, myofascial therapies and prenatal massage.
