Whether you are seeking relaxation or therapeutic massage, it is important to choose an experienced and caring health professional. I am now in my eighth year of practice, licensed by the state medical board of Ohio and insured by the American Massage Therapy Association. My knowledge of keeping the human body at optimal health is further enhanced by my experiences as a nursing student at Walsh University in North Canton.
