Owner/President, Licensed Massage Therapist

Treatment Philosophy – Deep tissue is great when appropriate.  It is up to the intuitiveness of the therapist to determine if what the client is asking for is the right thing for them at that time.  Sandy uses every opportunity to educate the client on what is going on with their body and how to achieve their health goals.  She is their partner in health and believes that it is the clients’ body that does the healing, not her personally – she is just a facilitator.

Specialties & Types of Clients best suited to their style of therapy 

  • Neuromuscular and deep tissue are her favorite techniques to use for clients who are suffering with migraine headaches, back and neck pain, hip and shoulder dysfunction.
  • She loves to be a detective to figure out what the source of the pain is and then treat the whole person, not just the area of pain.
  • She loves to stretch clients out to create length and restore posture.
  • Educating clients on home self-care is a passion and she will refer to many sources in order that clients get the care they need.

Preferred Styles of massage therapy used in treatments 

  • Deep tissue, combined with Neuromuscular, Orthopedic and broad Swedish strokes make for a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience.
  • Works on restoring the muscles back to their original state with stretching and maybe a little Craniosacral work to ensure that the changes will take hold making clients feel new again.
  • Pressure scale 5-10.
