Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork

​

I  believe good bodywork begins with listening. After more than 20 years as a body therapist, I’ve learned that no two bodies — a

nd no two days — are the same. Sometimes your body needs deeper, focused work. Sometimes it needs gentle attention, space, and rest.

​

My approach is rooted in my Japanese background and my training at the Acupressure Institute in Berkeley, blending Eastern bodywork

with Western massage techniques. I draw from Shiatsu, acupressure, deep tissue, stretching, and intuitive touch, adapting each session to you.

 

I work from a quiet, private studio in Albany and use high-quality organic oils and essential oils when appropriate. My style is warm, grounded, and unhurried. Each session is shaped by what your body needs that day, with a thoughtful blend of technique, intuition, and care.

​

Clients often describe my work as relaxing, intuitive, and nurturing.

 

Come as you are. I’ll listen to what your body needs that day.
