About

Your health, healing, and enjoyment of your life to the fullest possibility is my utmost passion! Wholistic health and wellness, and the integration of Eastern, Western, and folk medicine traditions, has been my joy in life from a young age. i've studied, and invented, many techniques across my career. i believe for many today, Upledger Cranio-Sacral Therapy and Barral techniques, are "missing links" to unlocking their full health and wellness.
please connect with me in any way you choose with questions, concerns. i look forward to helping you!
