I attended American Institute of Massage Therapy in Richmond, VA and have continued my education receiving certification in the Vodder Method of Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) as a Lymphedema Therapist in Sydney, Australia and Austria. MLD stimulates the lymphatic system which removes water and inflammation from the body promoting your own body's ability to heal. It assists in the removal of waste products, protein products and debris. MLD is used in the treatment of Lymphedema, chronic injuries, burns, immune dysfunction and surgery.

My services are primarily mobile as I believe that the best way to help a client achieve as high a level of relaxation, is for them to receive my services in their own environment. I have just moved to the Houston area and have an office located at Hand and Stone in the Oak Forest area. My ideal client is male or female from the age of 17 to the elder years. They are active in maintaining what is for them, optimal health. My goals in working with each of my clients to share with them practical ways of reducing the effects of the stress, injuries, and other minor trauma effects that can lead to chronic soft tissue maladies.
