| I have always had an interest in sports, fitness, and physiology and have known since high school that I would pursue a career in a healing profession. Upon graduating from Washington State University in 1996 with a Baccalaureate of Science in Kinesiology, I pursued my massage certification at the Touch Therapy Institute. I have been providing massage therapy since 1998 in chiropractic and physical therapy settings. My specialties are therapeutic massage, sport massage, and hot stone massage. I now have an office of my own in Westlake Village to serve everyone in Agoura, Calabasas, Oak Park, Thousand Oaks, and Newbury Park. I believe that the best massage therapists know the structure and function of the muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems. They understand the dysfunctions that can occur and how a particular technique/s can aid the situation or be contraindicated. I am confident that my experience and knowledge combined with my passion for what I do, really shows in my work. I am very proud to wake up everyday and know that I will be helping people. Please call me for an appointment. |

"Maria is an athletes' secret
weapon. I have been
competing in triathlons for
many years and she has
helped keep me active and
healthy throughout. When I
first started seeing Maria, I
was already feeling the
effects of over-training, She
helped to put me back
together by giving me greater
flexibility and improved
strength. She helped my body
to be able to perform more
effectively, and as a result my
race times have improved as
well as my overall physical
health."
