I help people recover faster from aches and pains, injuries and surgeries so they can get back to work and the things they love to do in life. I graduated with honors from the Boulder College of Massage Therapy in 2006. Over the years, I've developed a fascination with the effects of scar tissue and its lingering traces on the whole body. I'm a bodyworker with a strong intuitive sense, a "detective" style, guided by my desire to help people feel better.
I've learned that the root of the problem is rarely the one spot where we feel pain. A scar is influenced by tension in the body. Where the pain is felt may be the consequences of a problem coming from a distant place in the body. This is why I take a whole body approach integrating a variety of hands-on styles of bodywork for lasting relief. She was able to relieve me from months of nerve pain following a cancer surgery in only two sessions.
Additionally, she took the time to instruct me in doing follow-up therapy should it be necessary.

Swelling is normal after surgery or injury but persistent swelling is not.
When tissues are damaged from tissue trauma, the lymphatic system works overtime to clear the area of cellular waste and defend the body from infection.
This inflammation is a normal part of healing.
It's the body's natural response to an injury.
Lymphatic vessels are located in the layer right below the skin and above the muscle bed.
These vessels drain areas of swelling and they act like sewer pipes under the skin.
When there's prolonged or excessive swelling, the fluid pulls on the tissues and the tension and irritation drives more scar tissue formation.

The earlier you get help, the more your long-term physical and emotional recovery will benefit.
