Amber | Elite Massage Therapist

EDUCATION

The Cortiva Institute - Seattle. Graduated 2016. 750 hours.

SUMMARY

​"I palpate the body, assess movement if applicable, and can determine where a person needs to focus. Versus the outdated mode of giving blanket exercises to fix a pain point, even if that isn’t the root cause. Seeing the whole person as a puzzle is easier than finding pieces, and not seeing the original picture."

PRESSURE LEVEL

1 - 3

EXPERIENCED WITH

Chronic hip pain, pelvic floor discomfort, postural imbalances, triggerpoint therapy, nerve impingements, tendinitis/tendinosis, frozen shoulder, myofascial glide, lymphatic facilitation.

WHAT MAKES YOUR MASSAGES UNIQUE?

"Where flow of a Swedish massage and results of a treatment session collide. I use active and passive range of motion and fascial work to determine underlying sticking spots and pain point origin."

WHAT DO YOU MOST APPRECIATE WHEN RECEIVING MASSAGE?

"A solid intake, a grounded therapist, and flow."

WHAT KEEPS YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT MASSAGE?

"The knowledge we gain by listening to our clients and asking the right questions."
