what you, as an individual, need that day for optimal short-
and long-term health. I bring insight meditation techniques,

of long-standing depression.
Bio: I have been practicing massage therapy since October
1995, after training at Irene's Myomassology Institute in
Southfield, Michigan's first and oldest massage training school.
I became a massage therapist because I love to teach, help
others, and work with my hands and because, after receiving
one of my first massages in 1994, I realized how profoundly
physically and emotionally healing this work can be. I wanted
to bring that healing to others..
