Advanced Thai Massage Practitioner, Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist & Educator

With a deep-rooted passion for therapeutic bodywork, I have dedicated my career to mastering and sharing the art of healing through movement, touch, and education. As an Advanced Thai Massage Practitioner and Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) Therapist, I bring a specialized approach to bodywork that blends traditional techniques with a modern understanding of the body’s restorative capabilities.

Previously, I had the honor of teaching for a nationally recognized education provider, traveling across the United States to train fellow LMTs, RNs, and DPTs. Now, I am developing my own MLD course to equip other professionals with this powerful modality, continuing my mission to elevate industry standards through education and skill development.

In addition to my expertise in Thai and lymphatic massage, I have cultivated a deep passion for Prenatal Massage. Recognizing the importance of high-quality prenatal care, I have invested in extensive continuing education to curate a comprehensive and nurturing experience for expecting clients in Ann Arbor and the surrounding areas.

Looking ahead to 2025, my focus is on reinvesting in my team—ensuring that our therapists receive continued education opportunities to refine their skills and expand their knowledge. By prioritizing professional growth, quality service, and exceptional hospitality, I am committed to raising the bar for massage therapy and wellness services in our community.

My background in bodywork is expansive and continuously growing. Currenlty I am accepting new Manual Lymphatic Drainage Clients, 90-180 Minute Clients, and Returning Clients (Since 02/01/2024). When I’m not in the studio I am teaching for ACOLS across the country or pursing additional continuing education. I remain a humble student in order to benefit my clients and give them the best outcomes possible.
