History
After studying Physical Education, human anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics in Brazil, I worked as a Trainer for about two years, and right after that started my studies in the area of therapeutic massage, acquiring along the years, more than 1200 hours of training in the field. In Houston, I graduated from Avalon School of Massage, and hold, to this day, the highest score in the history of Avalon, for the massage licensing examination in the State of Texas. I have been providing therapeutical massage for 8 years and neuromuscular therapy for the past 6 years. I used to see my clients at Memorial Wellness, and now I feel blessed with the opportunity of opening my own office in the heart of Montrose.
Specialties
Neuromuscular therapy (NMT) is a technique that targets irritable spots (Trigger Points) in the muscles with sustained, perpendicular pressure until there is a noticeable release of the fibers. NMT helps to treat a whole host of muscular problems: tension headaches, shoulder and rotator cuff problems (frozen shoulder), tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, runner's knee, plantar fasciitis, shin splints, carpal tunnel, tight hamstrings, and general muscle tightness. You can keep your comfortable clothes on. Our clients come in wearing yoga pants, shorts, sweat pants, tank-tops, and t-shirts. However, we also see clients in professional attire who come in during lunch-time, or right after work.
