    • Redefine & Reveal Massage Therapy and Bodywork

      Jan 2020 - now

      Redefine means 'Give new meaning to' and Reveal means 'Make previously unknown, known to others'. As a licensed massage therapist for 8 years I focus primarily on techniques using an intentional therapeutic approach to help the healing process for specific conditions, injuries, and sources of pain. My goal is to help heal others through soft tissue manipulation in order to "Change the narrative, one massage at a time!"
