Certified in CranioSacral Therapy at the techniques level since August, 1996, I am also a Certified Teaching Assistant for The Upledger Institute, since 2009.
Board Certification in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork is the highest voluntary credential a massage therapist can obtain within the profession—it is above and beyond entry level state licensure. By becoming Board Certified, I represent a community of therapists who have gone above standard educational and work experience requirements with a dedicated and lifelong commit to continuing education. Furthermore, I live up to higher standards and ethics in alignment with The National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB).
To achieve my Board Certification, I provided proof of a minimum of 750 hours of education, 250 hours of professional, hands-on work experience, passed a criminal background check, agreed to uphold NCBTMB's Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics, and passed the Board Certification Exam. I was Nationally Certified from 2000-2016 and am Board Certified since March, 2016, BCTMB license number 284301-00.
Touch for Health Educator since April, 2011 after completing the main four Touch for Health classes.
