I consider massage my life's work. Having run 26 marathons (including four Boston Marathons), as well as currently enjoying trail running, cycling, paddle boarding, kayaking, and golfing, I have come to realize that my goal is to help clients overcome physical pain and discomfort, as well as teaching self-care techniques for optimal results in helping to achieve a high quality of life.
