About Joey
I started receiving CranioSacral therapy in 2016 after being diagnosed with my 5th concussion. I was not functioning well after the concussion and was having severe headaches, dizziness, and nausea. CranioSacral therapy was immediately helpful. It was such a different modality then anything I had ever tried, and I was so fascinated by what I could feel during sessions. My CST therapist suggested I take a class so I could understand it more. My first class was in 2017, and I was hooked. Since then, I have attended a total of 13 classes and plan on continuing my education and expanding it to other alternative modalities.
In 2023, I went back to school and got my Massage license. Though I still predominately provide CranioSacral therapy, I can incorporate massage into sessions as well for adults. In some cases, I may suggest separate massage sessions. The massage modalities that I may incorporate are myofascial release, therapeutic massage, and acupressure.
I work with adults and children of all ages including infants. I have particular experience in working with clients diagnosed with concussions, migraines, PTSD, gastrointestinal disorders and pregnancy. I have experience seeing infants for tongue tie, colic, torticollis, and reflux.
