About the Practitioner

A Career Rooted in Clinical Excellence

With 15 years of dedicated experience in the field of manual therapy, my mission is to provide high-quality, wellness-focused bodywork to the Florida Panhandle community. My journey began at The Soma Institute in Chicago, where I earned my Diploma in Clinical Massage Therapy in 2011. This rigorous medical foundation allowed me to develop a deep understanding of musculoskeletal health and rehabilitative care.

Clinical Background & Medical Integration

My professional history is defined by work in high-standard clinical environments. From an externship at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago to providing medical-grade recovery at the Chicago Marathon and the Hot Chocolate Marathon, I have spent over a decade treating diverse populations with complex physical needs.

Most recently, I spent over a year working within a Chiropractic clinic, collaborating on patient care plans and refining my skills in therapeutic pain management. Since launching my independent practice in May 2024, I have focused on bringing that same level of clinical expertise directly to my clients through mobile wellness sessions.

Advanced Training & Specialized Care

I believe that a great therapist never stops learning. To ensure the highest level of care for my clients, I maintain several specialized certifications and am currently pursuing advanced studies:

• Freedom From Pain Institute: Currently studying under Erik Dalton to master advanced pain management and structural alignment.

• Prenatal Certification: Specialized, safe care for expectant mothers.

• Compassionate Care: Extensive experience providing gentle, therapeutic touch for hospice patients and those in palliative care.

• Versatile Modalities: Proficient in everything from focused Deep Tissue and Swedish massage to group therapeutic events.

Professional Standards & Ethics

As a Florida Licensed Massage Therapist (MA95702) and a member of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), I adhere to a strict professional code of conduct. Every session is conducted with the utmost integrity, beginning with a formal health intake and ending with a commitment to my clients' long-term wellness goals.
