It is such a gift to be able to live your dream. Turning Leaf Massage is the product of a dream that was born shortly after my graduation from the Clinic Massage Institute of Geneseo in 1997. My life has always centered around health, healing and re-discovery.
I spent 15 years working in labor and delivery and I am an experienced "birthing coach" or doula. I opened Turning Leaf in 2010. It is my passion to help people discover the relaxation and restoration that massage can provide. I have a particular interest in providing massages for couples, a process that can help couples build stronger bonds in their relationships by rekindling the spark that first brought them together.
I believe much of our stress today stems from our lack of time and space for reflection and relaxation. The world has become far too busy, and today’s frenetic pace has taken a toll on us mentally, physically and relationally. Relationships need time and space together to breathe, grow and thrive. I have created a tranquil atmosphere in my studio where people can come in and leave their cares at the door. They leave here relaxed, centered and more ready to tackle whatever challenges they may face. Let Turning Leaf Massage be your first step towards discovering a more relaxed, restored and invigorated YOU!

I graduated from the Institute of Massage & Wellness, Davenport Iowa In 2011. My past work experience has been mainly in the spa industry. I started my career at John Taylor Day Spa in Rock Island Illinois where I worked for 4 years. Most recently I spent 4 years at Serenity Day Spa Moline, Illinois. I have a heart for sharing the many great benefits that massage has to offer. My focus is in Swedish, Prenatal, Deep Tissue & Trigger Point Therapy. I’m looking forward to building my own practice at Turning Leaf! Schedule your appointment today and let me help you begin your journey of a healthy body and mind!

It is an honor to have the opportunity to greet and protect the wonderful people who come to Turning Leaf. We plan to someday continue our education in advanced obedience training and serve as K9 Therapy dogs.
If you are not a fan of dogs, please let us know! We totally understand and are happy to take our lunch break during your massage.
