Touch is a powerful language and a tool that can facilitate healing if done with intention, care, and skill. We are energetic beings, constantly affecting and being effected by energy within and outside our physical bodies. Amma is a wonderful way to experience this flow of energy within us. My philosophy is to always work with the comfort level of the client. The path of least resistance, in both the mind and the body, is usually the best approach for healing. 

A little more about me:

I'm a homeschooling mom who is very dedicated to her family and loves all things in healing arts. I enjoy making things and cooking when time allows, drumming, love my superfood shakes, dancing, and am a seasonal singer for Japanese cultural events.
