Supporting Wholeness and Integration Through Therapeutic Bodywork

Marisha working with a client on the massage table

I enjoy tailoring each session in response to the individual. Like a dance that is created new each time, your session may incorporate a variety of modalities in response to what you are experiencing in the moment. Clients can also request specific modalities.

After receiving certification from The Minneapolis School of Massage in 1987, I have continued my education in a variety of therapies and in 2015 completed training to become an Ortho-Bionomy® Practitioner. I love learning and finding new ways to support my clients.
