Graduated from the Massage Therapy Institute of Colorado

With every massage, it is my mission to listen to each client--what they are saying and what their body is telling me. I always strive to relieve any pain and assist with range of motion, yet my main goal is to see what the root of each clients' tension is. This means that I take a structural approach. Instead of just making you feel good for 48 hours, I want you to get as much mileage out of your massage as possible! 

My goal is to provide each client with a state of mind and body which allows them to enjoy live more richly and move more freely. Depending on how much we work together I always enjoy providing the client with any movements, exercises, or supplements that may help them reach their full potential, and stay out of the hospital! I believe that people can save a lot of money and can live with a lot less limits if they are empowered to maintain well-being on their own, without involving health insurance and hefty hospital bills. 

Soon, I will be certified as an ATG trainer which will allow me to accomplish aonther important mission--to help clients avoid surgery by any means necessary! 

In my free time, I enjoy hiking with my dog Arno, as well as my family and friends.For many years, I have been a drummer and play with other musicians whenever I get the chance. Other than that, I love Grand Junction and being part of the community. A lot of the people I grew up with are thriving with their small businesses and we like to support each other any way we can. 

I hope you will have a chance to try my massage therapy and see if we are a good fit. Be Well!

I am from the Grand Valley originally and grew up on a farm in East Orchard Mesa. My natural love for massage began at the age of 7 when I was grooming my house. I found by doing a simple stroke I could make him yawn. When I tried it on the other horses and mules, it worked across the board!
