Dynamic Massage & Bodywork

When you heal yourself and assist others with their self-healing, you heal the Earth.

Barbara's mission is to provide massage therapy and be a helpful facilitator of healing for the body, mind and spirit of each client. She draws on a wealth of experience from her own journey of healing, and generously shares from all areas of her life with her clients.

As a massage therapist and bodyworker she integrates Manual Lymph Drainage (Vodder method), CranioSacral Therapy, Swedish, therapeutic stretches, and myofascial techniques into her work. Her practice is limited to women with a special interest and compassion for people living with cancer, including diagnosis, treatment, survivorship and end of life; for women with lyphedema concerns; for women who have experienced a recent loss and are grieving; and for women in their mid-life healing journey.
