Massage Therapist
Scarborough, ME 04074
My practice has evolved over the years. While many people prefer a spa for relaxation, clients who choose a private practitioner often come with musculoskeletal complaints. I took further training in neuromuscular therapy, positional release techniques and medical/orthopedic massage therapies to address the numerous discomfort and pain problems that are presented to me. I enjoy helping in the care and management of chronic pain issues, "weekend warrior" pain, chronic postural discomfort as seen in desk jockeys, overuse syndromes such as tennis and golfer's elbow, frozen shoulders, scar tissue remediation, headaches and TMJ pain, discomfort in the prenatal and postpartum periods, fibromyalgia, plantar fasciitis, and stress related muscle tightness in any adult age group. I utilize many of the techniques listed above, but unify them using Swedish massage so that the result is relaxing as well as therapeutic. Many of my patients who come to me for a specific problem, return on a regular basis for overall wellness massage. I enjoy the ability to get to know and care for each of my clients and even address medical topics for educational purposes. Many like to discuss health topics such a nutrition while on the table, while others prefer quiet. Either is fine.

Massage in the Comfort of Your Home
I will provide a one hour massage session incorporating gentle soft tissue strecthing, joint mobilizations, myofascial release, trigger point release and energy work as needed. Your massage session is entirely up to you. If you are someone that feels deep tissue work is what you need or at any given time request more gentle swedish style to a certain area then I will acoomadate your request. This is your hour. If you enjoy scalp massage or rather more focus on feet and hands then I will move to the areas as discussed. Your initial conversation and my ability to feel "congested" areas will dictate the focus. Your relief from stress and discomfort is my goal. I have twelve years experience in helping people reach their wellness goals. I find it rewarding to provide hope to someone suffering from pain or dysfunction.
