A nurse since 1976, Suzi has been practicing massage since 2004. In addition to the basic Swedish massage training, she has studied Trigger Point therapy, Deep Tissue, Myofascial release, and Thai Massage and East-West College in Portland.
She continued her studies in Hawaii to learn Hawaiian Lomi Lomi and Hot Stone Massage. It was in Hawaii that she became interested in massage for injury recovery to improve lymphatic drainage and to improve the look and feel of healing scars.
Suzi will take the time to listen and address any concerns or questions you may have about massage. She will discuss with you, your goals and design a massage for your specific needs.

Quote from patient:
I have had a lot of styles of massage before, from a lot of different practitioners, and I can easily say that I received the best massage ever from Suzi. She addressed my post-operative body with a relaxed confidence that I found very therapeutic. She taught me how to self massage in order to diminish scar tissue. Seeing Suzi accelerated the healing process. Even the areas not involved in surgery felt fantastic when I left the office!
