Meet me

My interest in the human body and treatment began when I was a teenager in California. I pursued various non-traditional sports including skateboarding and surfing. After moving to Colorado I became an avid skier, mountain and road cyclist. These activities as well as a car vs bike accident lead me to seek treatment for various injuries and sparked my interest in bodywork. I understand what it is to seek care as a patient and give care and compassion as a practitioner.

I graduated from the Boulder School of Massage Therapy in 1991 and moved to Vail where I worked at the Spa at Cordillera and grew a private practice. I soon moved away from the spa environment to pursue therapeutic styles of bodywork. My interest in sports medicine and pain management led to 3 years in a physical therapy clinic as a physical therapy aide and 2 years in a Chiropractic clinic treating spine related issues. Twelve years ago I added Certified Personal Trainer and Pilates instructor to my resume to incorporate fitness and therapeutic exercise to further assist my clients. More recently, I graduated from the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a Masters of Science in Acupuncture and practice in the Denver area.

I am a general practice practitioner with special interest in a a variety of acute and chronic pains, headaches, migraines, stress, anxiety, depression and digestive problems. I will use the best treatment techniques to help resolve your condition.
