About
Your body knows the difference between someone who's been doing this work and someone just starting out. After three years working at a spa in San Francisco's Japan Town, I've learned what real therapeutic change feels like—and how to listen to what your muscles are actually asking for.
I graduated from San Francisco School of Massage and spent those three years building both my technique and my understanding of how different bodies respond. Swedish massage, deep tissue work, trigger point release, PNF, lymphatic drainage—I use all of these, but never the same way twice. What works for your shoulders might be completely different from what your lower back needs, and that's where the real skill lives.
My style ranges from light, relaxing pressure to firm therapeutic work, depending entirely on what you're looking for. Some clients come in wound tight and leave feeling like they can breathe again. Others are recovering from an injury or managing chronic tension, and we work together to find the pressure and technique that actually helps. I offer both in-studio sessions here in San Francisco and mobile massage, so I can come to you if that's what fits your life better.
One thing I need to mention upfront: text me rather than calling. I'm often at work and can't pick up the phone, so a message gives you a faster response. You can also book directly through Vagaro. I don't work with minors or offer prenatal massage, but I'm happy to discuss any other needs you have.
