My Education

My journey in massage therapy began at the National Holistic Institute in San Jose, CA, where I acquired a solid foundation in this field. I further honed my skills and knowledge through an apprenticeship at Inner Space Chiropractic in Columbia, MO. These experiences have instilled in me a deep understanding of the significance of accessible and inclusive healthcare services. I am dedicated to integrating massage therapy into my clients' self-care routines, as I believe it can facilitate healing in our physical bodies and mental and emotional well-being.

Meet Nova

During the Spring of 2022, our family welcomed a tiny Shiba Inu into our home. This furry nugget of joy has brought an abundance of playfulness and levity to our daily lives, reminding us that the key to a joyful existence is never forgetting to play. Our Shiba Inu is also incredibly strong-willed, demonstrating a tenacity that has inspired me to create my new massage practice. Nova Massage and Bodywork were born with a delicate mixture of playfulness and tenacity. Like our furry friend, my practice is committed to bringing joy and positivity to your life.
