Transformative Bodyworks

Specialties

First off, I have been a massage therapist in Venice for 30yrs.

I have multiple disciplines, but I am best known for my Orthopedic Massage. My first degree was in Sports Medicine so I use bio-​mechanics in my work to find the underlying issues with your specific body and incorporate that into my healing sessions.

I also do another style of massage, an intuitive form that involves breath-​work, aromatherapy, cranial unwinding, and silence. A necessary treatment in these hectic times.

And yes, pregnancy massage too! I’m a well rounded therapist.

History

Established in 1983.

I started working in Sports Medicine via Chiropractic offices while finishing my degree in Sports Medicine. I then worked at the 84′ Olympics as an EMT/​Massage Therapist and Athletic Trainer for the Brazilian and Moroccan Soccer teams. At 24, I got swept away into the Hollywood scene for a decade working on location and sets. After my earlier 30’s I settled into a quiet life in Venice serving my community.

I am currently studying Somatic Experiencing and learning to release trauma through a gentle method of tracking sensations caught in the body. I am also a psychotherapist who specializes in Trauma and Addictions.
