My first experience with Myofascial Release was when I was in massage school in 2019. Lori Rynke, D.C., was a guest speaker teaching MFR. I had never heard of MFR before this. I was paired up with a fellow student, I put my hands on her with a gentle touch, not fully understanding what I was doing, she had experienced an emotional release that left us both dumbfounded. That experience was life-changing.

A couple years went by before my sister who is also a massage therapist, said she wanted to take a class & without hesitation I signed up as well.

My experience at that first seminar felt like divine intervention. The first day I noticed a difference; by the third day, I couldn’t believe what had happened. My whole life was changing. What I didn’t know at that time was how much it would change and the impact it would have on my career, my family and my personal growth.

When I returned home, I went to do a crunch during my workout and noticed the bottom of my shoulder blades lifted off the floor. This has not happened in a very long time, if ever. I was in shock and amazed at what this work can do.

I fell in love with this work at first sight. I feel as though I was born to do this work.

I continue to self-treat, go for treatment, going to seminars and learning more all the time on how to better embody this work and how I can bring you the very best treatment to help you through life’s challenges.

I do what I do because it brings me immense joy to witness the lifting of pain from others. There’s nothing more inspiring than seeing someone overcome their obstacles, rediscover their strength and take back their power. Life can weigh us down with so many challenges—physical, emotional, mental—but I believe that healing is possible. Every time I see others move through their own struggle, whether it’s physical discomfort or emotional pain, and emerge on the other side feeling lighter, freer, and more empowered, it fuels my own purpose. Helping you rise above life’s challenges is not just my job; it’s my passion. It’s my way of giving back to the world the same hope and healing that I continue to  receive.

I understand what it feels like to be in a place of pain and despair because I've been there myself. I've faced the challenges of physical discomfort and emotional weight, but through the transformative power of Myofascial Release, I was able to dig myself out of that hole. MFR brought me hope, healing, and a new perspective on life. Now, as a practitioner, I bring that same compassion, insight, and determination to help you on your own healing journey. I’m not just here to help you manage pain; I’m here to help you reclaim your sense of freedom, joy, and hope—just as I did for myself.

I know that every journey is unique, and that’s why I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are. Whether you're in the depths of pain, or you're simply seeking a way to feel better, I will work with you to help you take the next step forward. I bring compassion and understanding to support your healing journey—no matter where you’re starting from.

I’ve walked through some of life’s darkest challenges—addiction, PTSD, abuse—and I know what it’s like to feel lost, numb, and disconnected. I understand the weight of feeling like you don’t matter, like you’re a throwaway. But I also know what it feels like to rise above that, to heal, and to reclaim your life. Through Myofascial Release and my own journey of recovery, I found a way out. I’m now thriving, and I’m passionate about helping others find their path too. My mission is to help you not just survive, but to thrive. You don’t have to stay stuck in the past or in those painful places—together, we’ll move through it and build something better.
