The basis of my treatments are from my education and experience as a Physical Therapist, from which I combine techniques with those that come from my 14 years of experience a Massage Therapist in Los Angeles, Maui and Portugal, where I am currently located.

I utilize several different types of techniques to help in developing massage treatments that are tailored to the individual needs of my clients.

These vary in forms that are helpful in treating more serious physical issues or to provide a relaxing and stress relieving massage that will help to deal with the daily stress and related concerns that we all face on a daily basis.

The basis of my treatments uses the following general techniques in combination with those that are tailored to your own individual needs:

DEEP TISSUE - This intense massage uses deep, deliberate strokes and compressions to separate and lengthen your muscle fibers. This technique is recommended for very active individuals and those who need focus on specific muscle groups that cause discomfort or are with chronic issues.

SPORT MASSAGE - Treatments are based on the use of medium to firm pressure / compression and light stretching that help to improve circulation, flexibility and muscle recovery after workouts or other physically challenging sports, such as long distance cycling or activ sports like skiing and long distance running.

SWEDISH MASSAGE - Full body massage using a light pressure combination of both long and kneading strokes to soothe aches and pains and relieve stress and tension, combined with  STRESS RELIEF - concentrating on the neck, shoulder and legs to release stress and help with relaxation of the areas o fthe bosy that are nomally associated with stress.
