About me
In 2015, I completed my 900+ hour Clinical Massage Therapy Program at Central Carolina Technical College in Sumter, SC.
Shortly after pinning, I relocated to Columbia and worked in a number of franchised massage locations.
I developed a signature message style by combining my clinical massage education along with nervous system soothing techniques adapted during my teens when I began my journey of healing years of nervous system dysregulation.
After witnessing the abuse and mistreatment of myself, colleagues, and clients, I ventured out as a solo practitioner to provide an alternative to predatory, impersonal, franchised massage companies.
Promoting self-care and healing through the Scientific art of therapeutic bodywork.
Myofascial Massage
Myofascial, referring to both the muscles of the body along with the fascia and other connective tissues, is a slow and gentle yet highly effective approach to chronic (pain) and myo-skeletal discomfort often related to repetitive action or non-supportive posture.
That tightness that sits across your shoulders and sometimes sends pain shooting down your midback? Could be tightness of the muscles of the calf, an inverted foot on one side, rotated shoulders from frequent driving or computer work.
Like snowflakes, like finger prints, no two people have the exact same fascial patterning thought the body. Each massage honors this unique patterning and is tailored to the clients specific therapeutic needs and goals. Where pain is felt, and the origin of that pain are often different areas of the body. Because of this, every massage is a full body approach unless otherwise indicated by the client.

If you have made it to this point in the website and you’re wondering about happy endings or sexual services,
I have no judgements.
As a matter of fact, when going through massage school, we were prepared for the inevitability of being asked if we offer sexual services. Massage is an intimate form of connection and by this I mean it takes a great amount of vulnerability and trust. Sometimes I encounter clients who are seeking sexual connection.
Let me be clear, I fully believe that sex work should be legalized in this country. I fully believe consenting adults should be able to both offer for compensation and pay for sexual services. The need for sexual intimate connection is felt by many humans and I am not here to condemn that need.
Still, I do not now, nor have I ever offered touch therapy of a sexual nature and I have no intention to start.

‘Extras’
I don’t offer sexual services for several personal and professional reasons and this statement alone should be enough to shut down any line of questioning you may feel compelled to begin.
While I don’t judge people seeking sexual services or those offering them, I don’t abide repeated inquiries into whether I will engage in this work.
If I’ve answered you once, you have your answer. If you’ve read this notice on my website, you have your answer.
I also do not offer any referral services to sex workers, particularly massage trained sex workers, as I don’t know any.
If you are a client who continuously inquires about a happy ending during your massage, I reserve the right to end your massage early and full payment for the service booked will be due at that time.
Thank you in advance for your respect.
