Introduction: Appointments by REFERRAL ONLY I cater the massage session to the individual needs of each client. Have you ever had a nice massage and felt the usual pain and stiffness return the next day? It doesn’t have to be that way! I am a trained Medical Massage Practioner who is skilled in many types of massage: Swedish, deep-tissue, acupressure, sports, Neuromuscular, IAFM, IASTM,Lymphatic drain and many others. My gift, however, is a deep commitment to innovative treatments to improve function and comfort in the soft tissue and muscles of the body that have been stressed over many years – often a whole lifetime. But what has really worked with my clients has been releasing the deep adhesions in the fascia, the connective tissue that binds the human body together. Fascia is protective by nature – it cushions your entire body – but it can become hardened and stiffened over the years. Even strong muscles can be bound up in it.   Over time, my techniques shift the fascia in a lasting way. I have reduced a chronically swollen Achilles tendon to normal function by carefully manipulating the inflamed fascia around it so that it can move normally, without pain. Backs with a thick “turtle shell” of fascia surrounding them eventually become supple and the muscles of the back and shoulders are able to move back into their proper places and support rather than immobilize the body. Hands and feet that are numb can regain feeling and better movement, as the fascia release enables better circulation. This is my calling, and I love my work. If you’d like to feel better and better week after week, month after month, let’s work on it together.

I had a total knee replacement about 3 months ago. I was suffering from IT band syndrome enough so I could no longer do physical therapy. I’m seeing different doctors, acupuncture and a chiropractor to make it better. No help. In 1 hour she massaged the adhesions out now i have almost no pain. I wish I would have found her earlier. I would have been way ahead with my recovery, and she did not cause me any pain

Don't even hesitate to book Celina - she has an absolutely amazing touch and technique, and is so knowledgeable about individual quirks. I hadn't had a massage in a year (!), and was very tender on both my upper and lower back. She knows just how to handle that, and within minutes was able to really give me a deep massage. It wasn't just that I relaxed, it's that she knew how to get those muscles unkinked in order to proceed. And it was BEYOND FABULOUS to be able to just put my robe back on and not have to drive home. I'm going to try to book her every week - thanks, Celina!! :-)
