As a kid, I remember my mom used to have a lot of trouble with her body, and oftentimes she would ask me to massage her, a thing that became very natural to me and obviously thanks to my mom, who is a woman of many gifts and also a certified massage therapist.
During those years I learned to work on the body with her guidance and we would often swap so I got to experience and learn from her. She taught me to look through my hands and develop my intuition. As I grew up, developing my sense of touch naturally became a hobby which I would share with my close friends, whether it be a small rub on the shoulders, or a moment for me to let my hands do what they liked which my friends really enjoyed.
Growing up in the amazonian jungle of Peru is an experience I am grateful to have lived. I was lucky enough to meet and work with amazing traditional healers who would work with atypical types of massages and I have watched and experienced many different therapies my hometown has to offer. I came across bonesetters, healers, alternative doctors and practitioners who taught me a few things I still carry on doing.
I started working professionally after a few friends encouraged me to charge for my work with massages, since in my country it is a non regulated practice, I was able to offer my massage services during retreats, privately and small contracts. My journey only truly evolved when I moved to Canada in , after graduating from university. I was still looking for the best suited profession for me now on the other side of the world. I found rather naturally that I could form myself professionally here and get certified.
Since then, it only keeps evolving and I never stop learning about the body which I see as one with the mind and spirit. My approach is rather intuitive but it now also has a strong foundation on anatomy and pathologies of the human body thanks to my training and constant research.
