 About Me

I am a licensed massage therapist and a professional member of the American Massage Therapy Association.  Having attended The Muscular Therapy Institute in Cambridge, MA (now, Cortiva in Watertown, MA) from 1994 - 1996, I graduated with a thorough set of massage techniques in various modalities including General Relaxation, Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, On-site Chair Masage and Prenatal Massage.  I have also particiapted in Continuing Education opportunities receiving my certification in Prenatal/Perinatal/Postnatal Massage. 

Having spent 15 years in the demading field of International Finance, I know first-hand the effects on the body of sitting at a computer all day and of the effects of frequent travel as well.  Having experienced the rewards of prenatal massage during my own pregnancy in 2008-9, I recently renewed my training in this type of massage so that I could more effectively work with the pregnant client.

Knowing that I personally held tension differently in my own body at each stage in my life, I do not believe in the "one size fits all" approach to massage treatments. I design each massage session individually based on the client's specific goals and history.
