Researching ideas on how to stay safe while administering and receiving a massage once I am able to go back to work! https://youtu.be/Ith8K4cWb_M

Thinking of you during the covid-19 crisis It has been a little over 3 weeks since the shelter-in-place order was put into effect in the Bay Area. The health, social, economic, and deeply personal implications associated with the world-wide coronavirus crisis in which all of us are currently involved in has been profound. I want you to know that my thoughts are with you and I hope with all my heart that you and your family are ok.... Update: For me, one of the hardest things about this experience has been the fact that the best thing that I can do for my community and my family is to strictly comply with the shelter-in-place directives, stay at home, and stop working. I truly wish that I was able to continue to provide massage to help you and others, especially our health care workers and first responders, get through this unprecedented and incredibly stressful time. Appointments: The current Bay Area shelter-in-place directive set by the CDC and backed by the American Massage Therapy Association and the California Massage Therapy Council requires that I not perform massage therapy until the order for our profession is lifted. As of now, that date is set for May 3. Hopefully, it will not need to be extended again. Once I am able to start taking appointments I will be offering special rates to help ease the financial burden as we all work towards getting our lives back to normal. The details of which I will announce upon opening again. In the meantime, I would like to share with you some of my favorite resources that are helping me stay positive and healthy during this time.

The holiday season can be extremely stressful and it's important to take some time for yourself to rest and rejuvenate! I recently went on a snowy hike in Whistler, BC. I could literally feel the stress leaving my body with every oxygen rich breath I took. It was glorious! Massage is another of my favorite ways to reduce stress and I'm really looking forward to the one I have booked for myself! I want to know!?! How are you managing this season and what are some of your favorite stress reduction activities? #walnutcreekca #selfcare #reducestress #relax #recover #rejuvenate #massagetherapy #massagetherapist

Before and after: I am excited to announce that I am now building my private massage practice! I have been a massage therapist for 10 years and I have been so blessed to be employed by some amazing places and people up to this point. Their mentorship, guidance and example played a big part in making me the therapist and professional I am today. To them, I am so grateful. It's scary but now it's time to step out on my own. I will be operating out of a Sports Chiropractic practice in Walnut Creek, CA. Again I find myself surrounded by body work professionals that inspire and motivate me. The room that I am renting used to be a doctor's office. With a few pieces of functional furniture (and curtains!) I was able to turn it into a super cozy healing space Send me a DM if you are interested in booking a session with me!
