*graduated from the Brenneke School of Massage, Seattle, 1996 *practicing massage in the Philadelphia area since 1998 *Professional member of AMTA (amtamassage.org) *Pennsylvania Massage License *Chair Massage for public and private events in the Philly area *full body/table massage at my home studio on Baltimore Avenue near 47th street (on the 34 trolley line) *My preferred modality is myofascial release, a deep tissue technique which releases restrictions in the connective tissue, particularly those due to old injuries. I am familiar with Swedish and relaxation techniques as well. My primary concern is responding to the needs of the tissue, in consultation with (and education of) my clients. *I have also been running meetup.com/phillyhikes since November of 2008.
