"I first became interested in massage when I was 6. My uncle was a quadrapaligic and I always liked to rub his back as he sat in his wheelchair hoping to make him better. After being diagnosed with scoliosis at twelve chronic back pain followed a short time later and I would get massages for pain management. I knew right away that I wanted to be a part of helping people feel relief whether it be from the pains of their body or the stress of their life. I believe positive human touch is an absolute necessity that many people are deprived of."

"Emotion always has its roots in the unconscious and manifests itself in the body."
