About:

Samantha has been a practicing massage therapist and bodyworker for over 20 years

Sam learned how important touch therapies are through her own personal healing journey. She knew from an early age she wanted to help other in a similar way. She began her training at the Touch Therapy Institute in Los Angeles, CA in the early 2000s and competed her 770 hour massage therapy certificate program in 2009 at the Wellness and Massage Training Institute in Woodridge, IL. Throughout her career she has worked in a variety of settings including: chiropractic and acupuncture offices, massage schools, spas, yoga and music studios. She has also gone on to completed several more certifications.

Sam believes anyone can benefit from massage and bodywork, but is especially passionate about, and enjoys facilitating sessions for clients who are going through life transitions. She blends her formal education and training with her unique intuitive abilities to create a style all her own that is highly therapeutic, deeply relaxing, and is individually customized just for you. You can relax and restore in a supportive space with results that last.

Always a professional, but also a genuinely funny and uplifting person, Sam will provide you with the very best of care.
