Hello, I'm Jaimie!
My path to massage therapy... ...was a seed planted at the beginning of my motherhood journey. My first born arrived a month early, and I was taught infant massage techniques to help my baby integrate earthside . . . and it worked. Through mothering, I became a La Leche League Leader, a hospital-based, certified nursing and lactation assistant, a certified lactation educator, and a doula. The time spent supporting mothers led me to eventually seek out my massage certification. My passion is empowering mothers throughout their childbearing years and beyond. I enjoy focusing on the unique needs of women, to include core awareness and pelvic health. My massage approach is both intuitive and integrative, focused on balancing the body and central nervous system, promoting relaxation, and body awareness. I believe that ALL BODIES ARE BEAUTIFUL and that the space created between the therapist and client is SACRED. It is fully my intention for you to feel respected, accepted, honored, and above all, safe. |
MY OTHER PASSIONS:
For the last 12 years I have had an incredible love affair with Afro Brazilian music, dance and culture. I am a devoted volunteer and member of SOL AXE, Tucson's Afro Brazilian drum and dance community. Through this community, I have had my soul opened and learned the freedom of artistic expression and being comfortable in my body. This experience led me to Brazil in 2012, a very spiritual journey that set me on the path to being the massage therapist that I am today. These experiences have and continue to influence my work today: how I move around the massage table, the body awareness and movement advice I share with mothers and others, and are the inspiration for my prenatal movement class, BirthRhythms: Rhythms of the Earth to Support Your Birth. I credit many teachers along the way, but most importantly, my first dance midwife, Yarrow King. She introduced me to our master teacher, Rosangela Silvestre (www.silvestretraining.com).
