I am a Certified Rosen Method Movement and  Rosen Method Bodywork Practitioner. Rosen Method work has made a profound difference in my life and in my body. (www.rosenmethod.org)

 Rosen Method Bodywork and Movement are my passion!

My goal is to connect with people from a place of non-judgement. I use a hand that listens rather than manipulates, which enables me to detect your muscular holding patterns and  support changes in the body, to increase comfort and facilitate pain-free movement.

 My philosophy is there no gain with pain.

In addition to bodywork I also enjoy hiking, dancing, water aerobics, knitting, singing, and I love animals and nature.
