My Journey To Healing

Late one evening, more than 25 years ago, my phone rang. It was my college friend with shocking news: “I have breast cancer. I’ve started treatments. It’s okay. I’m doing great.” I was stunned—She was only 33. How could this be possible? That conversation ignited a fire within me. Her resilience and commitment to supporting others despite her health challenges deeply inspired me.

Two years after that life-changing call, I embarked on a transformative journey, leaving a long-standing corporate career to pursue my passion for massage therapy. My friend’s strength motivated me. I was driven by a purpose to specialize in oncology and mastectomy massage early in my massage career. My schooling was just the beginning. As soon as I graduated, I pursued advanced courses in these areas, eager to make a difference.

Over the past two decades, I’ve dedicated my practice to supporting women diagnosed with breast cancer. Together, we’ve worked to alleviate pain, enhance mobility, and improve overall strength. My approach isn’t just about physical treatment—it’s about enriching lives through empathy, care, and unwavering support.

Today, my mission continues. I am committed to empowering each client until suffering is no longer part of their story, sharing my friend’s story of courage, and pushing forward until the pain and struggle of breast cancer are no longer realities women must face.
