EveryBODY Needs to be Kneaded
I am a Nationally Board certified therapist a member of the American Massage Therapy Association and a Certified Zero Balance Practitioner. Holding current licensure in Maryland, Florida, Virginia, and Indiana, my focus is on my clients' holistic wellness. I have been practicing since 1993.
I specialize in Zero Balancing and Ashiatsu barefoot massage, although I offer a plethora of varied therapies/treatments.
Zero Balancing can help relieve body aches and pain, release restrictions in movement, and provide lasting relief from emotional distress to improve overall quality of life. Zero Balancing can also be helpful with specific goals such as relief from back pain, improving concentration or sleep, releasing unwanted stress, eliminating old behavior patterns, or boosting well-being. Zero Balancing works in conjunction with medical therapy and is not a substitute for it.
Ashiatsu barefoot massage During an Ashiatsu massage, therapists use their bare feet to deliver deep compression, long gliding strokes, and/or assisted stretching. Ashiatsu isn’t just a deep tissue barefoot massage technique; it’s the deepest. The therapists use their feet and controlled weight to apply the massage. In a word, it is a compression massage. For the most part, the method utilizes gravity to assist the massage therapist in giving a consistently deep and relaxing massage. And you cannot tell the difference between their hands and feet.
