Many of our LMP's offer other styles beyond the popular modalities featured on the New Seattle Massage practitioner pages.

My work combines the soothing, circulatory enhancement of Swedish technique and the firm specificity of Deep Tissue. With "listening hands" and with feedback from the client, I work to achieve the "right" pressure, gently challenging tight muscles, yet allowing space for tissue to fully relax. My background as a ballet and modern dancer contributes to my kinesthetic and visceral understanding of the muscles and connective tissue, as I work not only at the site of the pain or tightness, but also muscle groups that may be pulling in the opposite direction. The muscle and tendon connections around joints are also points that receive particular attention in my sessions.

The intention at the basis of all of my work is to invite balance to the body and a feeling of connection and integration for body and spirit. As part of my philosophy which views massage therapy as a health care profession, I request that you observe my "no tipping policy".
