About
I am located at Hive TMJ and Theriputic Massage at the Village Gate Square in Rochester NY. My focus is combining Swedish and Deep Tissue techniques for a relaxing yet effective treatment. Neck, Shoulders and low back are my specialty!
I get to help people feel better internally, emotionally, and spiritually. There are very few jobs out there that allow you to do this, and massage therapy is one of them. People come to me with all different types of issues and from all walks of life. I give, where so many others and other activities take. I make real connections with people.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
You must shop around! Expect to go through several massage therapists before you find the one for you.
Dare to be “high-maintenance” — politely express your preferences, and quickly move on from therapists who don’t respond respectfully.
Look for therapists with at least some kind of credentials. It doesn’t guarantee anything, but it improves the odds.
Continue therapy only if you see some signs of progress within 3-5 appointments in most cases.
Please never tolerate “brutal” massage therapy. If your therapist seems to think there’s no gain without pain, move along.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
When you start with a new therapist, ask for what you want, and watch what happens. Be politely demanding. Dare to be “high maintenance.” In particular, be picky about pressure. Ask for more or less as needed throughout the treatment. Be nice about it, but say things like, “That’s a bit too strong for me right there, could I get a little less?” If you get a no-pain-no-gain response, counter with this: “Sure, okay, but I’d still like a little break from the intensity for a couple minutes — I need to catch my breath and relax a bit.” Or, if it’s too fluffy a treatment for your tastes, ask for more pressure. If your therapist doesn’t seem to hear you, or is dismissive, it's time to shop for a new theripist.
