holistic massotherapy
My journey toward a career focused on holistic well-being began in 2020 when I enrolled in a Practical Nursing program. While the experience provided valuable education and clinical exposure, I discovered that the traditional medical model didn't fully align with my values. This led me to embark on a path of self-discovery and exploration, ultimately focusing on holistic healing practices.
In 2023, I achieved certification as a Reiki Practitioner from the Integrated Energy Medicine Institute. This accomplishment solidified my commitment to this approach. I further expanded my skillset by completing my Massage Therapy education at the American Institute in Hartford, CT, graduating in 2024. I sat my licensing exam passing on my first try and within the same week received my CT License. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective therapeutic care, integrating various modalities to support clients in their journey toward optimal health and well-being.

60 minute swedish massage - $100
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
30 minute hot stone therapy: $40
Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.
60 minute reiki: $90
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.

30 minute reflexology: $70
Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.
60 minute Orthopedic cupping and stretching: $120
Orthopedic cupping with stretching is a style of massage therapy focused on treating painful conditions that affect the soft tissues of the body. Because orthopedic massage is designed to treat medical conditions, it requires extensive training. It involves releasing tense muscles, helping to stretch and lengthen tight muscles and tendons, and decompress rigid joints. My goal is to restore full health to the soft tissues of your body, both treating your specific conditions as well as improving your overall well-being.
chair massage
Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair in addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.
