In 1998 I completed my 3 year Shiatsu training at the Bristol School of Shiatsu in Bristol, England. In 2000, I became a Licensed Massage Therapist In Seattle WA. where I had a private practice and taught Shiatsu at the Northwest Institue of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and Bastyr University. Since 2007 I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist in Oregon (OR Lic. 13462). Apart from my private practice in downtown Portland I also works at the Institute of Traditional Medicine in their auto immune clinic where Shiatsu provides supportive therapy for clients with HIV/AIDS, cancer, MS, Hepatitis C and diabetes. I enjoy working with a diverse group of clients. With compassion, skill and a love of the healing arts I create a treatment program for you that is enjoyable, beneficial and sustainable.
