I learned the art of holistic-minded bodywork from The Wellspring School for Healing Arts in Oregon and am humbled to offer a variety of bodywork styles to the Des Moines area. My style may be described as a dynamic blend of deeper therapeutic work and gentle relaxation techniques. I often use a combination of Eastern and Western massage styles to create a unique and well-rounded massage experience. I enjoy setting the intention of helping others find moments of peace from the intensity of daily life, and to help reconnect and deepen their relationship with their physical bodies.
Some modalities I often utilize in my sessions are:
- Deep Tissue
- Swedish Relaxation
- Acupressure
- Gua Sha
- Cupping
- Amma Therapy
- Myofascial Release
- Reflexology
- Hot Stones
In my spare time I can be found volunteering with Polk County Conservation, taking art classes at the DSM Art Center, weightlifting, or reading non-fiction novels!
