I practice Thai massage, prenatal massage, ashiatsu (barefoot deep tissue massage, as pictured), lymphatic drainage massage, and other bodywork modalities.

I came to the practice of massage therapy in 2019 after many years of teaching yoga in the Knoxville area.

I'd love to help you feel better in your body, shed stress, and move more freely. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me.

Thai massage incorporates the Buddhist practice of mindfulness through breath awareness. It is also a practice of metta, or loving kindness.

The 10 sen lines of Thai massage are similar to the prana nadi of Ayurveda and the meridians of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Compressions, rocking, and stretching remove blockages in the lines, allowing the body's natural life force to flow. The belief is that blocks cause aches, pains, and disease - and by removing them, energy flows more freely, restoring balance and harmony.

Thai massage increases flexibility and range of motion, relaxes the body and mind, and provides a sense of increased energy.
