Officially certified cupping therapist!

The use of negative pressure to lift tissue up up and away from the center of the body is a wonderful adjunct to the more commonly used compressive techniques in massage that apply downward pressure into the body.

Calm the nervous system; assist lymphatic system function; loosen tight/adhesive soft tissue; increase ease of movement and range of motion.

Just registered for my cupping training course! Soon to be an ACE certified cupping therapist! Can’t wait to learn some new skills to layer on top of my current knowledge foundation.

Cupping is an effective way to stretch tissues in the body, opposite of more common compressive techniques of bodywork. It has been shown to reduce stiffness and increase range of motion, as well as alleviate pain and promote relaxation.

Interested in seeing what cupping can do for you? Call, text or email to schedule an appointment.

A comfortable 65 degrees, sitting in front of a cozy fire with a warm spicy chai latte, it finally feels like autumn is just around the corner! 😊

Sitting in my happy place, I’m planning out my next series of advanced trainings so that I can continue to excel at providing highly effective treatment to clients suffering from discomfort, pain and reduced mobility issues.

Advanced medical cupping and lymphatic drainage massage are at the top of my list at the moment. As my regulars know, I’ve already got some mad deep tissue skills. But I want to make sure I can meet each client where they’re at; and sometimes that means utilizing a much lighter touch.

I’ll continue to keep you all updated as my work grows and evolves. I look forward the sharing the journey towards greater health together!

So excited to be bringing my 18 years of clinical massage skills to my new studio in SE Portland! You can learn all about my background and transition from a professional dance career to massage, as well as the services I offer, at www.articulatebody.com

From professional dancer to Clinical massage therapist. Life’s journey can be filled with unexpected but beautiful transitions. It’s one long improvisational dance, where the choices we make become a past, whose experiences inform our work in the present, which opens up wonderful new possibilities to explore in our futures. This perspective is an integral part of my work with clients. No two clients arrive in my studio with the same exact experiences. And no two therapists have identical trainings and bodies of knowledge. By working together, we can find a unique path forward in the dance that is your healing journey!
