Before Ashiatsu, I primarily focused on therapeutic deep tissue, injury work, and spa massage. I learned to combine therapeutic work with relaxation. Now, focusing on calming the parasympathetic nervous system, while kneading knots.
I worked a Mississippi Chiropractic in Portland, OR, and I had the great pleasure of working with Lisa Bourlon at Balance Therapeutic Massage & Core Fitness, and her husband Patrick Bourlon at Active Chiropractic.
I have also owned and operated my own businesses since 2004, beginning in Milwaukee, WI, moving to Portland, OR, and then to Bend, OR. , San Clemente, California, and now, hopefully lastly Redmond, OR.
Before discovering Ashiatsu, I was briefly a property manager, and small Business owner of Desert Flowers Property Management LLC. This was a 4 year venture in Bend, OR.
I hoped to hang my hat in San Clemente with my incredibly loving and kind husband Dan Neumann, but the cost of living went up to high. We are now back in Central Oregon, Redmond excited to become immersed in this lovely town.
I can't wait to share my passion, knowledge and expertise with this community to help in healing through the profoundly relaxing technique of Ashiatsu.
