Esalen® Massage Approach to Trauma

Massage for Mammograms

As a Massage Therapist, with over 16 years of clinical experience in treating soft tissue function and pain, I provide a gentle and thoughtful approach to healing and wellness. I received my Bachelor of Art in Art History from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington in 1993 and received my massage therapy diploma from the Body Therapy Institute in 2008. I was drawn to BTI initially because of their focus on body-based psychology. I have been practicing massage therapy since 2009.

 

I bring a deeply intuitive and heart-centered approach to bodywork, creating a space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and supported. Drawing from a rich toolbox of healing modalities—including the calming flow of Esalen® Massage and the gentle support of Lymphatic Drainage Therapy—I meet each person with care and intention. I also integrate Transforming Touch® Somatic Therapy, a gentle and trauma-informed method that supports nervous system regulation and emotional well-being. Whether you’re navigating stress, physical discomfort, or simply craving a moment to reconnect with yourself, I offer a personalized experience that honors both your body’s wisdom and your life’s unique rhythm.

Customized Massage Therapy

With an emphasis on light pressure but working deeply, I use the long, flowing form of Easlen® Massage to focus on whole body wellness and a deepened experience of rest and relaxation. Esalen® work is deeply relaxing and meditative. It is highly complimentary to somatic therapy.

From there, we move intoTransforming Touch®  to support nervous system regulation, emotional safety, and grounding.
