About Me

Massage therapy and healing have been  passions of mine since childhood.  Upon graduating from Finger Lakes School of Massage, and passing the NYS exam, I am now a Licensed Massage Therapist!!  I live in the Norwich/Oxford NY area, and do mobile massage in Chenango, Broome, Otsego, Cortland, Madison, Delaware and surrounding areas.    

Massage is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. It's increasingly being offered along with standard treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and situations.

Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension.

Studies have found massage may also be helpful for:

  • Anxiety
  • Digestive disorders
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Headaches
  • Insomnia related to stress
  • Myofascial pain syndrome
  • Soft tissue strains or injuries
  • Sports injuries
  • Temporomandibular joint pain

Beyond the benefits for specific conditions or diseases, some people enjoy massage because it often produces feelings of caring, comfort and connection.

Despite its benefits, massage isn't meant as a replacement for regular medical care. Let your doctor know you're trying massage and be sure to follow any standard treatment plans you have.
