I’ve been a practicing massage therapist for the last 8 years. I completed my studies at Spa Tech Institute in Westbrook, Maine; where the therapeutic massage program was heavily influenced by energy work and intentional therapeutic touch. 

I am a Certified Neuromuscular Cupping Therapy® and Nurturing the Mother® Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage therapist. I have also completed additional trainings from Leslie Stager RN, LMT of MotherTouch®  and Rebecca Overson's Maternity Massage Specialist training.

Nurtured Touch Massage and Bodywork comes from years of continued massage education by studying myofascial bodywork, Thai yoga, body stretching, reiki, lomi lomi, and muscle energy bodywork. The work and session you will experience with me is a combination and result of these studies. It is rooted in intention; it is slow, deep and aimed at stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system. 

I believe that taking time to care and nurture our bodies is essential for improving our quality of life. My hope is that every visit provides you the opportunity for change, growth and reset. I look forward to meeting you soon and invite you to take a moment to nurture yourself.
