Why My Clients Choose Massage
My clients make an appointment with me when they want to:
  • decompress from the tension of their busy New York lifestyles
  • seek relief from the aches and pains of daily life and working out
  • help speed recovery from injuries
  • take time out for a much-needed and relaxing break
Whatever condition they arrive in, my clients leave the session feeling much better!

What to expect from a Massage

Your massage session will take place on a comfortable, padded massage table. Dim lighting and quiet music will promote a soothing environment.

After a short consultation, I will leave the room to give you time to undress, get on the table, and cover yourself. You can leave your undergarments on, if it makes you feel more comfortable. During the massage, you will remain completely covered, except for the body part that I'm working on.

As a professional licensed therapist I am dedicated to providing a completely safe and enjoyable experience for my clients. My work is strictly therapeutic and non-sexual.


During your massage, your only job is to provide feedback if you experience discomfort in any way. Otherwise, you simply relax and enjoy!

















About Me
I'm passionate about traveling, cooking vegetarian food, and photography. On a trip to Southeast Asia, I became certified in Thai Massage at the WatPo Medical Massage School in Bangkok. Upon returning to the states, I continued my education at the Swedish Institute of Massage Therapy, and became a Licensed Massage Therapist, Certified in Prenatal Massage, and a Member of the AMTA. I am also a professional Doula, and help women feel empowered through their labor using compassion and advocacy. In my role as an LMT I care deeply about providing the nurturing touch that helps people unwind and heal. My study of health, massage therapy, and the human body never ends!
