Vision l Bio

I have been doing bodywork for over 20 years.

• In 1986, I learned a full-body sequence for Shiatsu (acupressure) and have been practicing shiatsu off and on ever since.
• In 2001, I was certified in Swedish Massage at the San Francisco School of Massage.
• In 2002, I began my full-time practice and was certified in Sports & Deep Tissue Massage at the McKinnon Institute, in Oakland.
• In 2003, I explored the body even more deeply with a human cadaver intensive and was certified in Pre- and Peri-natal (Pregnancy) Massage Therapy with Carol Osborne-Sheets, a pioneer in peri-natal massage.
• In 2004, I studied Geriatric Massage.
• In 2005, I was certified in Hospice Massage and spent a year volunteering, providing massage to hospice residents and workers.
