No disrobing need it.

I offer lymphatic drainage massage to post-surgery clients, and anyone with swelling or immune system needs. It's a gentle form of massage that uses the body's own natural filtration system to speed healing from injuries or surgeries. I also provide in-home massages.

My clients come to me for various reasons. Some come for relaxation, most come seeking pain relief. Still, many are looking for a qualified practitioner specifically to help with reducing inflammation and discomfort after undergoing cosmetic surgery. More recently, I have been seeing plenty of doctor-referred clients dealing with autoimmune disorders or cancer. Whatever the reason they come, they are looking to get results in achieving their individual goals.

Welcome to Wav Wellness and Vitality! I offer therapeutic massage and bodywork specializing in SOMA Neuromuscular Integration® (a form of Rolfing) and hold over 20 years of hands on experience. Whether you are an elite athlete, a stay at home mom, a person suffering from ADD/ADDHD, or any 'body' of any age, I believe in treating the entire person, finding the cause of the problem, rather than chasing symptoms, in order to reduce chronic dysfunction. Each session is dedicated to creating lasting results allowing for optimal function, overall ease of movement, and a reduction in chronic pain.

Headache, neck, and jaw pain? Shoulder injuries? Sciatica? Low back strain or injury? Auto-immune disorder? Looking to maintain your health and muscle strength and resilience? Are you an avid athlete wanting to retain optimal health?

As a Holistic Health Practitioner I assist my clients in healing their discomfort and pain such as neck and shoulder pain, back and hip problems and recovery from injuries. Biodynamic Bodywork developed in my practice throughout the years to help people with their unique and specific pain patterns. I specialize in Lymph Drainage Therapy (LDT) to support the fluids and detoxification, and work with cancer patients to diminish the side effects of chemo therapy and lymph edema. Because LDT is very gentle, it helps diminish swelling and pain after surgery, including plastic surgery. Very importantly LDT boosts the immune system.

I've had a Manual Therapy healing practice for 35 years. I consistently observe that the path to healing arises from a deep listening & from attaining balance & flow between the physical, emotional & spiritual aspects of our being. My interest in Holistic Health Care began when I put myself through University & Graduate school working as a Massage Therapist. At that same time, from an inspired vision, I designed, developed, & taught a program on Therapeutic Touch for the elderly at the Desert Institute for the Healing Arts. I hold MA Certification in Gerontology, BA in French Literature & Dance, & BA in Interdisciplinary Studies: Pre Med, Life Sciences & Humanities.

I specialize in working with stress, injuries, pain, muscle soreness, swelling and post surgical recovery, using a variety of therapeutic modalities including: therapeutic, deep tissue, sports massage and manual lymphatic drainage and cranial sacral therapy. Sessions are therapeutic in nature and aim at resolving issues related to muscle overuse, stress, post surgery, post injury, fatigue, poor posture or structural concerns. I work confidently with your injury or muscular skeletal concerns and have had a healing practice for over 15 years with 5+ years experience working in medical settings.

Specializing in muscle release and alignment, pain management, stretching utilizing passive and active range of motion facilitation. By active stretching I help my clients soften their muscular fascia restoring flexibility. I also use deep tissue therapy and myoskeletal therapy in some cases to release scar tissue in surrounding joints and areas difficult to release with common stretching. These techniques help realign muscle fibers for better mobility. Continuous treatment prevents muscle pain and restriction to re-appear.

We use the most effective massage modalities: Sports Massage, Neuromuscular Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Dermoneuromodulation and Prenatal Massage; to restore you to pain-free health, as quickly and easily as possible. We thoroughly assess & consider all of the contributing biopsychosocial root factors related to your issue. This includes, but is not limited to: your work and home stressors; overall body condition; nutrition; genetic & postural habits; and, emotional connections and patterns.

I offer a natural, comprehensive, somatic approach to headache, migraine, stress, pain, tension, and trauma. I developed Transcranial Somatic Therapy (tST) in 1970. This protocol calms and resolves headache and migraine pain and its associated symptoms, such as light, sound, and smell sensitivity, nausea, and lethargy. Learn Self-tST as part of the Somatic Headache Care Program for Relief and Prevention. Self-care, hope restoration, and empowerment practices are powerful tools, as taught in The Headache Healer’s Handbook. I offer 1:1 and group sessions online; some in-person sessions.

You'er in pain, you've been to several different therapists with no luck. Even the MD finds nothing wrong - no breaks, no tears, no pathology. It's frustrating and annoying to live with this. You might be able to trace the pain to something that happened years ago - an accident, a fall, even surgery. Ever since then something has not been quite right. And now you're ready to get it taken care of.

Take time to take care of yourself with my in-home therapeutic massage to relax, balance, and breath in wellness energy bodywork. I specialize in muscle release and alignment, pain management, stretching utilizing passive and active range of motion facilitation. Active stretching helps my clients lengthen, strengthen, and condition their muscular fascia restoring flexibility. I also incorporate deep tissue, strain counterstrain, and myoskeletal therapy to release scar tissue in surrounding joints and areas difficult to release with common stretching. These techniques help realign muscle fibers for greater mobility and stability.
