Therapeutic massage in the San Juan, PR area.
Therapeutic massage in the San Juan, PR area.
Massage, in its ideal form, is a powerful healing art. Everyday stress and tension becomes stored in the body tissue, stiffening our bodies. Poor skeletal alignments constrain the flow of energy and nutrients, inhibiting our bodies from performing at their full potential and adding strain on all our systems - immune, nervous, circulatory, endocrine. Massage has a power to release these solidified tensions, and beyond relaxing the body, it can actually change the way the brain and neurological systems function, literally freeing our minds!
Your body controls your mind, just as much as your mind controls your body - it's a two-way feedback loop. To paraphrase Einstein, "You cannot solve a problem with the same body that created it."
I specialize in therapeutic deep-tissue style massage, geared specifically to reopen, to realign, and to heal the body and mind so that your systems will perform at their optimal level. I have an insatiable desire to heal, coupled with an intuitive sense of where the body needs healing most and an innate sense of detail. My additional background as a dancer, yoga instructor, and skydive instructor deepened my awareness of the body and its intricacies. No two clients receive exactly the same session; each one is tailored to focus on the specific needs of your body. With five years of experience, both in a spa environment as well as my private practice, one thing is certain, clients leave satisfied and keep coming back.

The cost and set-up is minimal, and the benefits are vast. Studies have shown that even a few minutes of therapeutic massage both relieve stress hormones as well as release the hormones responsible for uplifted mood, better focus, and stamina. It will not only make your team happier, but your workflow more productive.
In this day-long massage intensive, each individual will receive a 10-15 minute massage, both relaxing and stimulating. I focus on the full back, shoulders, neck, arms, and hands.
All that is needed is a small space in which to set up the chair, and I will be providing the rest, so there is no overhead. This makes it an efficient and effective way to treat your team members in a way that is beneficial to both them and the productivity of your business.
As those of us with active lifestyles know, physical activity and repetitive stress can inflict a lot of strain on the body. Therapeutic massage works by breaking up scar tissue and adhesions that form in the tendons, ligaments, and muscles of the body. These can form as a result of a new injury or a chronic injury or repetitive stress. Once scar tissue and adhesions form they can cause misalignment in the structural fabric of the body. Our body is connected in one fabric, so when we affect or injure one area it will affect other areas as well. The right massage catalyzes the regeneration of tissues and the restorative process of the body; it can heal and prevent future ailments.
In this type of therapeutic massage, I focus on stimulating optimal blood circulation, stretching the muscles, and working out any the kinks along the way to prevent injury and promote elasticity of the body.
Massage helps with Tendonitis, Carpal Tunnel, Tennis Elbow, Golfer's Elbow, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Whiplash, Repetitive Stress Injuries, Frozen Shoulder.
Just like mechanics often have the worst cars, massage therapists are guilty of neglecting their own healing needs. As a meticulous massage practitioner with many therapist colleagues, I fully understand this challenge. Our work is physically taxing, and as experts we can find it difficult to find a therapist to meet our exacting standards, both in technique and convenience.
While therapist's trades are a great concept in theory, this ideal doesn’t pan out in practice. Trades are too time-consuming, making it impractical for the busy schedule of a therapist.
In my aim to make this completely convenient for you, I offer an unbeatable price for fellow massage therapists. We can meet either at my studio, or I can come to you. I am flexible and will work with your particular schedule and needs.
