“I am passionate about helping others and genuinely care about the well-being of my clients. I believe that massage therapy has something to offer everyone whether it is for the purpose of injury rehabilitation, preventative care or pure indulgence of relaxation. I try to be mindful that clients have a lot of choice in where they can choose to go for massage services and I want to make sure they know that they can trust me to take care of them. I try to keep in mind that the client has likely been looking forward to their massage for days or weeks and my goal is to make that hour they spend with me, the best hour of their week. I set that intention with every massage”.
