Bio
Originally from Santa Fe, NM, I am a dedicated massage therapist specializing in therapeutic treatments that promote healing and overall well-being. Trained at East West College of the Healing Arts, I am skilled in a variety of modalities, including Neuromuscular, Deep Tissue, Craniosacral, and Swedish massage, as well as both Eastern and Western techniques.I work closely with clients to address a range of conditions—from sports injuries to stress relief—and enjoy educating them on the benefits of regular massage. My approach is personalized, client-centered, and informed by my knowledge of musculoskeletal anatomy and kinesiology, helping to create treatment plans that support lasting healing.Outside of work, I stay active by practicing aerial fabrics, paddle boarding on local lakes, and diving into my beginning yoga practice. I believe in the power of a balanced lifestyle and bring that same energy and mindfulness into my work as a therapist.
Massage Therapy FAQs
Is massage therapy right if I’ve never been treated before?
Absolutely. Many people start massage therapy with no prior experience. Your massage therapist in Portland will walk you through the process and adjust pressure and techniques to your comfort level.
Will my insurance cover massage therapy at Calm Chiropractic?
Some insurance companies may cover massage therapy, but only if provided with a diagnosis code. Since massage therapists cannot legally diagnose, you must first be seen by one of our chiropractors.
If you are not sure if your insurance covers massage therapy, give us a call at 503-231-8887 and we’ll be happy to look at your coverage and help you determine next steps.
Do I need chiropractic care too?
Depending on your insurance provider, you may need to see a chiropractor before your appointment. If chiropractic care is ever recommended, it’s optional and discussed collaboratively.
How long are massage sessions?
All sessions are 60 minutes, giving your therapist time to address problem areas while still allowing for full-body relief.
Can massage help chronic pain?
Yes. Massage therapy is commonly used to help manage chronic muscle tension, improve mobility, and reduce pain—especially when provided consistently and customized to your needs.
Can I use my insurance coverage to pay for the massage club?
No. The massage club is a separate, cash-pay only program. If your insurance covers therapeutic massage, it is not included in the massage club. You are still welcome to join the club for an additional, discounted (out-of-pocket) massage each month.
