Certified Massage Therapist, Licensed Massage Therapist.
Do you know the feeling you get when the wind is behind you pushing you forward? That is similar to the feeling I get when learning a new massage technique, talking about self-care, teaching people about essential oils, etc. I love seeing results and how the power of massage amazes my clients. The techniques that I use are all known for relieving chronic pain. I love it when my clients say “My shoulder has never felt so good” or “I can’t remember the last time I did not have a headache.”
I grew up in Owatonna, Minnesota. After receiving my first massage at the age of 9 years old, I've felt called to be a massage therapist. I graduated with my associate's degree in massage therapy from the Minnesota School of Business in Rochester. I've taken continuing education classes in massage cupping, gua sha, raindrop therapy, ashiatsu, and aromatherapy for massage therapist.
I enjoy spending my free time being a volunteer leader for Young Life. I also enjoy teaching others about Young Living essential oils. Call the office to set up a one-to-one if you're curious about the powerful healing benefits of therapeutic grade essential oils.

CRYOTHERAPY
Localized cryotherapy can best be described as a cold air "super-icing" treatment. Only takes 2-3 minutes for a small area to be treated. Here are some of the general benefits that are achieved through localized cryotherapy treatments include:
- Flushes the tissue of fluid and waste rapidly
- Faster recovery
- Reduces inflammation
- Improves range of motion
- Aids in pain management
I'm known for giving ashiatsu massages, which is a barefoot deep tissue technique. I can give continuous deeper pressure over the broad surface of my foot than I can with a pointy elbow or thumb.
I was first introduced to ashiatsu by my teacher when I was attending school for massage therapy. I took a course in Denver, Colorado in March of 2016 from Ruthie Hardie, the founder of ashiatsu, and have been massaging with my feet ever since.
