pain, including stress management. I combine different healing modalities to achieve optimal results: Deep Tissue, Sports Massage, Trigger Point Therapy, Reiki Therapy, Craniosacral Balancing and I also do Pregnancy Massage.

Whether you have an old injury, a recent injury, stress, stiffness or issues that effect your mobility or range of motion, you will have trigger points. Trigger points are caused by trauma, injury or stress to the muscles, from either repetitive movement, inactivity, accidents, sports or emotional stress to name a few. By combining various massage techniques listed above and especially Trigger Point Therapy I can help to reduce and in many cases eliminate your pain by 'erasing' trigger points.

Some of the conditions I treat include: back pain, knee pain, sciatica, fibromyalgia, TMJ dysfunction, SI joint pain, IT band pain/inflamation, plantar fasciitis, neck pain, hip pain, headaches, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, post operative pain, hamstring pain, muscle spasm, pulled muscles, whiplash, shoulder pain, repetive stress injury, piriformis syndrome, rotator cuff injuries, pain associated with bulged or injured spinal disks, range of motion issues, sports injuries, work injuries, auto injuries etc.

Reiki and Craniosacral Balancing are also very effective not only for treating pain, but for reducing symptoms from other health related issues. Energy work relaxes the body and mind almost instantaneously which allows you to achieve a deeper level of healing.

If you have pain right now, you'll benefit from my tips on pain management which you can begin to use before your first appointment.

I understand what is involved in dealing with chronic pain or stress because I have suffered from it myself. I encourage you to view my case studies or testimonials about real clients that I've treated.

Located in a relaxing home-office in Burbank near Glendale, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Toluca Lake, Valley Village, Pasadena and Los Feliz.

I accept credit cards through PayPal only. For those of you who are interested in multiple appointments, I offer package deals to help you cut costs.

Thanks again for visiting and I hope to hear from you soon!

Research Information

Students! Check out the research study on the benefits of massage therapy and increased test scores.

The study was done based on math scores, but I'm sure that these findings would carry over to test taking in general. Here are the results in a nutshell: "The massage group showed increased speed and accuracy on math computations while the control group did not change". The study shows that the students had decreased anxiety and increased alertness. In addition, the students tested lower for job stress.
