About

I have been a physical therapist since 1994 and began my studies in bodywork in 1984 when I enrolled in a Shiatsu program. After graduating PT school in 1994, I was introduced to John Barnes at the Myofascial Release I seminar. MFR became the cornerstone for developing my skills as a manual therapist. 

In 2015, I had the opportunity to study Visceral Manipulation and found it to be the missing link in how I viewed the fascial system. VM is simply an amazing way to treat and integrates seamlessly with MFR. VM has required me to learn to listen to the persons body more sensitively with so much less pressure. While VM focuses on the thoracic, abdominal and pelvic cavities one cannot separate out the effect a restriction around an organ has on how a person moves.
