Mission
Associated Muscular Therapy provides treatment sessions designed to promote healing and relief from pain, stress and injury. Incorporating massage and bodywork into our lives provides us with many benefits, which are cumulative with regularly scheduled sessions. Your body has the ability to heal wounds, fight disease and release tension. My goal is to teach increased awareness and encourage personal responsibility and participation.

Our body sends us signals when experiencing chronic pain and stress. Over time we become adept at tuning out our body’s signals. This means that we don’t pay attention to our body’s need until the neglect is incapacitating. With awareness, there is choice. With choice, healing becomes an option. I am here to facilitate your healing
