Licensed Massage Therapist

My Services

I offer Therapeutic Massage, Therapeutic Relaxation, and an exquisite Oceanside Massage Experience.  

While the massage industry standard is a one-hour session, I suggest a more in-depth and comprehensive two-hour session. In my experience, this is the amount of time necessary to care for you and your body most effectively and thoroughly while addressing your concerns. 

With intention, consent, and conscious touch, I provide a unique two-hour session—a complete therapeutic massage experience that rejuvenates your body, mind, and spirit.  

We will talk before you get on the table so I can understand how to serve you best. This consists of discussing your history and concerns, performing a basic orthopedic assessment where I observe your posture and alignment, and performing orthopedic testing as necessary. It also includes using your imagination as I guide your breathing to engage the mind in the healing process. I will then use this process during the massage to get your mind involved in the experience. 

The massage begins with gentle CranioSacral therapy that flows into Myofascial Release, Swedish, and deep tissue work with ROM (range of motion: movement and stretching at neck, shoulder, and hip joints). I apply these techniques in conjunction with Cupping (Static, Dynamic, and Active), Active Release (where I have you move in a very specific way as I apply massage to the affected muscles), Vibration, Trigger Point Therapy, Traction, and other therapeutic techniques as appropriate for you. 

It is an honor and a privilege to share my work with you, and I am passionate about providing an exceptional experience to each individual I serve. I am professional, licensed, and insured, providing each client I serve with a customized massage session. I am kind, caring, skillful, and effective. My massage is deeply relaxing while I work to decrease pain, increase range of motion, increase ease of movement, and help facilitate injury recovery.  

While a 2-hour complete session is usually ideal, a 3-hour comprehensive session might be better for you if you have multiple issues to address.  Again, while 2 hours is preferred, I can offer shorter sessions, 1.5 hours and 1 hour. One hour would be best suited to targeted treatment of specific issues.

The Oceanside Massage Experience 

Your experience begins with driving down the magical Government Beaches Road in Pahoa, aka The Jungle Road.  This single-lane road goes through a magnificent old-growth rainforest. You will take a short hike from the road through the jungle on a pine needle-covered trail, then go over some rough lava, followed by a young ironwood forest. From the forest, you will emerge onto a relatively flat lavascape overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean. The waves are crashing just 12 feet down from the edge of the lava.  Your massage table is set up and waiting for you. It is a unique, secluded location, ideal for an Oceanside Massage Experience. It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience in a pristine area of nature.

All of the above times mentioned refer to the actual time you are on the table after my intake process. There is no extra charge for deep tissue work.  

I use only pure organic jojoba oil, pure organic extra virgin coconut oil, pure Mac nut oil, or unscented Vegan lotion. I offer each client their choice of aromatherapy, adding essential oil to the massage oil at no additional cost. 


I treat clients who have had accidents and have approved claims from Worker's Compensation, No-Fault Auto, and the V/A.
