Creator of Three Rivers Bodywork.
My mission is pretty simple: HELP PEOPLE LIVE A PAIN FREE LIFE!
I graduated with my associates degree in physical therapy in 2011 and have been practicing manual therapy since that time. I have had extensive training in both Myofascial Release and Craniosacral Therapy which is the focus of my practice.
I understand the struggle of living with chronic pain due to autoimmune disease affecting my joints and degenerative changes affecting my neck. (I love my parents dearly, but they really should have never had kids together, little did they know it was bad mix of genes lol.) Unfortunately, I know what it is like to wake up and feel like a 100-year-old woman trying to get out of bed. I know what it is like to try to make it through the day with severe neck pain that makes it so hard to think or focus on anything besides how much you hurt and how bad you want the pain to stop.
I have learned A LOT through my journey with pain and want to help you navigate yours. My goal is to help people find relief from pain using gentle hands-on manual therapy techniques as well as educate them on things they can do to manage pain on their own. These therapeutic techniques decrease your level of pain, increase your level of energy, strength and mental focus to making attending social gatherings, going out to dinner, traveling, participating in a sport or hobby, going grocery shopping, taking a walk, making a meal, taking a shower, getting dressed, putting on shoes, or sleeping through the night possible. I have personally benefited greatly from these techniques, and I am confident you will too.
In addition to my bodywork practice, I enjoy almost every form of dance from ballet to hip hop and everything in-between (nothing beats doing a flash mob, everyone should do this at least once in their lifetime). Floating in my pool. Working out and spending as much time as humanly possible in the sauna after. Cookouts. Traveling. Watching movies and reading books from the most serious to silliest. Puzzling and playing games, competitively of course as there is really no other way to play! Spending time with my amazing kids, family and friends.
Enough about me, I look forward to helping YOU live pain-free!
