As soon as I can! Building a new business is a lot of proverbial wrangling ducks into rows and whatnot. And ducks do not stay in line. Sinister ducks…. Anyway, I assure you that I’m working hard to make my services available to you ASAP. You can fill out the contact form on my landing page to be notified when I launch!

I’m very excited to announce my acceptance and enrollment into the 500+hr Structural Integration program at IDA-SI here in Portland! 2026 will be a huge year for growth! At the conclusion of the program, I will be a Board Certified Structural Integrator (BCSI) by the International Association of Structural Integrators. Structural Integration will become a core specialization of mine, but I will continue to collaborate with you on an individual basis to determine the best treatment plan to meet your goals.

No. We all deserve access to safe and effective massage. If you occupy a human body, you are a perfect client for me. And if you don’t, well I’m always open to learning new things.

My practice centers client agency and client consent. I welcome all persons of any color, size, age, gender, gender presentation, sexuality, religion, nationality, ethnicity, and ability. If you are trans, non-binary, non-conforming, or otherwise have difficulty finding safe access to care, I am a safe space.

I do, at the same time, acknowledge the limits of my training. There are some health conditions which I currently lack the training to safely provide treatment around. I am always happy to talk with you and your care team about your particular needs, and will refer you to a practitioner with the appropriate training if needed.

In-home massage is a wonderful way to experience the benefits of massage in the comfort of your own space, without the hassle of commuting and parking! It’s a great solution for people who don’t have the time to go to a distant studio, or have obligations that prevent it. Aside from the logistics below, in-home massage is like any other massage treatment. I will talk with you about your goals, design a treatment plan with you, and then deliver the planned treatment within the scheduled time.

It is important to note that the first 10-15 minutes of your scheduled appointment will be for me to set up my equipment. In order to ensure that my setup doesn’t eat into your treatment time, please prepare a space for us to work in.

I will need a minimum of 9’ x 12’ that is free of furniture and trip hazards (cords, small rugs, toys, etc) in order to work safely around the table. I will need a path that is at least 4’ wide to safely carry my equipment to your chosen location. Please have any pets you own isolated to another space before I arrive. As an animal lover, this pains me, but even a good-natured pet getting underfoot at the wrong time can be dangerous for you, me, and your furry loved one! Please choose a space where you will have reasonable privacy to disrobe if you choose to do so. While you disrobe, I will need access to a clean bathroom where I can wash my hands before starting treatment. I will assume any members of the household wandering in and out of the treatment space have your implicit consent to be there. Please make your own advance arrangements for your own privacy.

Inviting a stranger into your home is not a trivial thing. Take comfort in knowing that as a Licensed Massage Therapist in the State of Oregon, I must go through extensive credentialing and background checks to gain and maintain my license. The Oregon Board of Massage Therapists (OBMT) takes consumer reports of malfeasance very seriously. My license number is 29107, which you can confirm here. You always have the right to report violations to the board. Thank you in advance for doing your part to keep the massage profession a safe and healing space for providers and clients alike.
