Bio
With a background as a licensed Medical Doctor from Thailand, certification and training in Acupuncture, Aesthetic medicine, and Regenerative medicine, I bring a unique perspective to massage therapy. My understanding of Anatomy and Physiology is deep-rooted.This expertise enables me to skillfully navigate the complexities of massage therapy, including understanding how different techniques interact (synergism) and recognizing when certain techniques should be avoided(contraindications). These insights ensure each session achieves exceptional outcome.

During my experience at Burke Williams and public clinic of the National Holistic Institute College of Massage Therapy, I honed my skills in various massage techniques. My specialties include Swedish, Shiatsu, Sports massage, Thai massage, Myofascial Techniques (MFT), and Deep Tissue, Prenatal and Lymphatic massage.
Accomplishments
I take pride in my academic achievements, having scored 100% in both Anatomy and Kinesiology, as well as in hands-on practice tests for both Western and Eastern sections. Beyond technical skills, my clients appreciate my strong communication abilities, health education and compassionate approach to therapy.
Philosophy
My approach to massage therapy is rooted in a profound respect for the body's natural healing processes. I believe in addressing muscle issues with a comprehensive understanding of their function, ensuring that every massage session is therapeutic and harmonizes with the body's needs.
