For the past 40 years, I have provided neuromuscular therapy/massage for dancers from every major
ballet company in the entire world & numerous Broadway Shows on tour in California. I have also
worked on many television, feature films, and music videos onset, enhancing the production.
I am a certified St. John Neuromuscular Therapist/licensed massage therapist, specializing in the
treatment of soft tissue injuries for dancers and performing artists, practicing St. John Neuromuscular
