About

Lori is driven by her trust in the body’s innate ability to heal itself, and a strong desire to encourage and support people on their paths toward wellness. She feels honored to be able to offer her services to others.

Lori has a passion for promoting health and wellness naturally. Using an integrative approach to massage and bodywork, she skillfully creates a massage experience tailored to each person's unique needs and requests. Her restorative therapy is a wonderfully relaxing, centering and de-stressing oil based therapeutic massage. Lori is also passionate about soft tissue strain/injury, sports conditioning, and addressing chronic pain through advanced myofascial techniques; finding alternatives for better movement and general health maintenance.  Lori works with clients who suffer with chronic headaches and TMJD, frozen shoulder issues, pelvic, spinal and knee issues in particular. Lori will work with you to achieve any health goals you may have. 

Having come through several years of chronic pain she is understanding and fully dedicated to the well being of her clients. Through communication Lori keeps her massages very client centered and integrates  different modalities to accommodate her clients needs. Her massages are deep and therapeutic, yet healing and relaxing. Lori's clients enjoy relief from pain and tension, reporting feeling more relaxed and balanced. She will work with you to improve your quality of life, improve posture, facilitate injury recovery, and/or manage chronic pain.

Lori aims to empower her clients to foster wellness in all aspects of their lives. In her free time, she enjoys adventuring outdoors, traveling, her yoga practice, and spending time with her beloved furry companion.
