Hello! My name is Emily.

I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist and Reiki Master.  

​

I graduated in 2025 from East-West Healing Arts Institute after an extensive Massage Therapy program. Consisting of 800 in person class hours and 120 hours of clinical. 

Shortly after receiving my Massage License I enrolled in a Reiki class and have since become a Reiki master. Energy work has always been a part of who I am and I wanted to add more credibility to what I bring into my practice.

Who am I as a provider and person?

As a provider, I am a facilitator of healing. I do not heal you; rather, I have the absolute pleasure of supporting your innate ability to heal yourself.

​

By combining nervous system regulation, breathwork, and deep therapeutic bodywork, we target the root cause of your stored pain. My goal is always to calm your nervous system first. This relaxation allows the deeper therapeutic work to take hold and create longer-lasting results. I achieve this by listening with deep compassion, showing genuine care, and formulating a personalized plan tailored to your goals. Through this blend of techniques, your body can finally integrate the thoughts, feelings, and energies that have manifested as physical pain.

​

As a person, I practice what I preach. I am constantly seeking new ways to grow and heal. I actively participate in local healing groups in Madison, including a recently joined all-women’s circle, and I use dance—like silent discos—to connect with my most authentic self. Healing is an inside job first. As a mother and a practitioner, keeping myself regulated is essential. I rely on daily breathwork and visual meditation to clear my own energy. Every new self-regulation tool I discover, I pass forward to you.

Who do I help?

I help anyone who is dealing with constant pain, feeling emotionally blocked, or searching for caring touch and true connection.

I act as an ally for your needs and a dedicated support system in your self-care journey. You are not just a collection of muscles—you are a whole being. By looking at the bigger picture, we will co-create a personalized plan tailored to your life.

​

Whether your goal is to decrease pain, increase range of motion, clear emotional blockages, or simply feel calm for the first time in your life, I am here for you.

How do I help?

Creating an environment you are excited to enter and hosting conversations where you truly feel heard is how we start our sessions. I use fleece or flannel sheets, a table warmer, and thick blankets to signal to your body right away: "it’s time to settle."

​

We often start the session face-up, incorporating acupressure and slow, deliberate breathing to gently tap into your nervous system. Once you are settled, I integrate a tailored mix of deep tissue, Swedish massage, acupressure, fire cupping, Gua Sha, myofascial release, and energy work (such as breathwork or Reiki).

​

Working hand-in-hand with nervous system regulation and therapeutic techniques creates longer-lasting results. You will leave the table feeling deeply refreshed and equipped with new tools to continue regulating yourself at home.
