“The answers might surprise you “
Welcome to Root Shock Ya, where healing is personalized, structural—and sometimes a little surprising. I blend therapeutic bodywork with energy-based techniques to help you feel more at home in your body, and maybe even uncover something new about yourself in the process.
Experience & Philosophy
With over 1,400 classroom hours and 7 years of hands-on experience, I bring a grounded presence and a deep well of knowledge to every session. I’ve worked in massage studios, spas, and chiropractic offices, helping people manage pain, reduce stress, and uncover the root causes of dysfunction—both physical and emotional.
My approach is structural at its core, but I also incorporate energy work and emotional awareness to support healing on every level. I look beyond surface symptoms to address what’s really going on. The goal is lasting relief, better alignment, emotional clarity, and a body that feels free to move with ease.
Healing isn’t just about technique—it’s about presence. Every session begins with intention: to hold space, to listen deeply, and to honor the unique energy each person brings. I believe in creating clear energetic boundaries, allowing you to fully relax and feel safe, seen, and supported. Intention and integrity shape the energy of the session just as much as the physical work itself. It’s not just what we do—it’s how we be with each other that creates real healing.
If you’re ready for deeper healing—not just relief, but real transformation—I’d be honored to walk that path with you.
The Healing Power of Connection
I’ve always believed in the power of touch with intention. While studying at the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts, that belief deepened as I learned how emotional patterns and energetic imprints often show up physically. In reflexology class, everything clicked: healing isn’t just about fixing pain—it’s about listening to what the body is trying to say. That understanding deepened even further when I went through Toe Reading training. Toe Reading solidified for me just how interconnected everything is—how our thoughts, emotions, and life experiences can even influence the shape and direction of our toes. It amazed me to see how something as small as the pinky toe could hold a lifetime of stories about communication, trust, and self-expression. This work helped me truly see that healing is never just physical—it’s emotional, energetic, and deeply personal.
Human beings are wired for connection. Safe, intentional touch triggers the release of oxytocin—a hormone linked to trust, bonding, and emotional safety. This natural response helps calm the nervous system, lower cortisol levels, and support emotional resilience. It’s not just feel-good chemistry—it’s the body’s way of saying, I feel safe here.
Touch becomes even more powerful when it’s offered with presence and care. It reminds us we’re not alone, that we’re held, and that healing is possible—on every level.
