I’ve been a licensed massage therapist since 2004 specializing in Therapeutic Massage which can include Swedish, Shiatsu, Thai and Reiki techniques. As Chairman of the NGH Southern Arizona Chapter, I hope to educate people in the many uses of hypnosis and elevate its perception with the general public.
