STEUBEN Massage THERAPY

After 25 years of providing therapeutic massage and bodywork to over 300 clients, I’ve developed my own approach to pain relief. Trained and certified in multiple techniques, I combine bodywork and massage protocols in order to achieve pain relief specific to each client, yet this is only half of picture.  My intuition is the other half; it guides the therapy session and comprises Steuben Massage Therapy to its highest degree.

My core approach to massage comes from my training with the ST. JOHN’S NEUROMUSCULAR THERAPY.  This protocol begins with observation of all the planes of the body in addition to the pain and discomfort points.  I begin each therapy session with measuring the planes and discovering how the body is distorted from its natural state. 

MYO-FASCIAL RELEASE THERAPY

Myo-fascial Release Therapy is the ultimate tool in my " massage bag of tricks.”  The techniques from this therapeutic protocol have been found to be long lasting to permanent in their relief for clients. It directly addresses muscle spasms and moves "stuck” energy that the client has been holding for years that may stem from an old accident or chronic pain.  One client claims it to be her "miracle,” freeing her from muscle patterns that could not be released by any other massage technique.

  TUI NA

Tui Na is one of my preferred techniques and I love integrating this nurturing and balancing massage into each session. This is what Pacific College of Massage has to say about Tui Na. "It is a therapeutic form of massage and has been used in China for more than 2,000 years. Tui Na massage therapy has been considered the external form of massage and is used for giving special treatments to people of all ages, from infancy to old age. This Chinese therapy makes use of rhythmic compression techniques along different energy channels of the body to establish harmonious flow of Qi throughout the body and bringing it back to balance. It works deeply with the positive energy of the body.”
