Massage Therapist CEUs:

Nurturing the Mother® Prenatal/Postpartum Certification Workshops

Whitney teaches Claire Marie Miller’s nationally and internationally known continuing education training course: Nurturing the Mother® Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage. The course is offered in two formats: a 3-day, 24 CE course for independent practitioners or a 2-day, 16 CE for spa workers. Both courses are NCBTMB-approved and confer Certification in prenatal and postpartum massage.

Momma Massage Pregnancy Workshops for Expecting Couples

Using all of her knowledge and experience as a birth doula, a massage therapist and an instructor for massage therapy, Whitney has developed a quick and effective class for expecting couples that teachers partners/support persons simple massage, stretching and breathing techniques to use whenever the expecting momma needs them.  This class provides a great lift for partners, helping them feel more confident and ready with support and comfort measures.

About Me

I am a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Birth Doula (by DONA International) practicing actively in Norther Virginia and the DC Metro area. I am also a certified instructor for Claire Marie Miller in Nurturing the Mother® Pregnancy and Postpartum Massage.   

 

In my practice, I see a lot of expecting mothers for prenatal and postpartum massage, but I also have a range of clients seeking pain management, stress relief, range of motion improvement, and recovery from illness/injury. I have training and experience in Swedish, deep tissue, accupressure, and reflexology.  When working with a client, I use all of these modalities to customize the experience and meet the specific needs of each person.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage involves strong pressure and slow moving strokes designed to penetrate through multiple layers of tissue. Many people find deep work essential to helping them overcome stress-related pain and restricted range of motion. Clients often feel relief even after the first session, and over time they experience lasting improvement in their well-being. I find that many of my clients benefit from a combination of deep tissue work and deep, passive stretching, which restores balance to the body and ease of motion.

Whitney was great deep tissue massage therapist.  She cared for my wellness and is very deliberate with how she breaks down knots while helping to relieve your pain and in my case, severe migraines.  I will definitely be going back to see her.  She’s excellent!

If you need significant tissue, tendon, or muscle work done, Whitney … is your person!  She has the anatomy knowledge and the strength to target work, unlike any massage therapist I’ve ever had.

Whitney is an excellent masseuse.  She worked on several smaller muscles around the neck and shoulders that no other masseuse had worked on; that made a big difference.  I appreciate her skill in applying strong pressure when she works on back muscles.  She is a great asset…
