I've been practicing manual care and bodywork since 1995 — long enough to have trained in, explored, and moved beyond a lot of approaches, and to have developed a clear sense of what actually creates lasting change in the body.

My path into this work was personal. After reconstructive hip surgery following a Judo injury, I became determined to understand how the body heals — and how to help people avoid unnecessary surgeries and medications when there's another way. That experience has shaped everything about how I practice.

The heart of my practice is Rolfing Structural Integration, which I approach through the lens of neurodynamics — working with the structure of your nervous system, its 45 square miles of peripheral nerves, and how this vast communication network, along with the CNS, organizes movement, manages tension, and regulates pain. First certified in the Vodder Method of Manual Lymphatic Drainage over 20 years ago, I bring MLD into sessions involving acute injury, post-surgical recovery, and edema.

Two kinds of people tend to find their way here. Some are dealing with persistent pain and want their life back. Others are functioning well but sense there's more available — more ease, more range, more feeling at home in their body. Both paths are welcome, and both unfold through a process that's genuinely yours.

I received my diploma from The Guild for Structural Integration in 2002 and am a Certified Rolfer with the Dr. Ida Rolf Institute.

Outside the office I'm still moving — continuing my Judo practice, mountain biking, and performing aerial acts with a local circus. Movement isn't just what I do with clients. It's how I live.

What I care most about is creating a space that feels safe, collaborative, and unhurried — where real transformation can happen.
