Philosophy on Healing: My philosophy of healing is rooted in a deep fascination with the mind–body relationship. I have come to see the mind and body not as separate systems that influence one another, but as a complete and constant overlap. Our thoughts, emotions, hormones, and physical tissues are continuously communicating, shaping how we experience health, stress, and wellbeing.

I believe that dysregulation of the nervous system lies at the foundation of much physical and emotional discomfort. When the body remains in prolonged states of stress or imbalance, it loses its natural ability to adapt, heal, and return to equilibrium. Massage offers a direct and powerful pathway back to regulation by creating safety within the body, calming the nervous system, and restoring the conditions necessary for healing.
