As a registered massage therapist and local business owner, I'm very passionate about mindfulness and the role it plays in the way my life is today. We all have our life's challenges, but mindfulness is the key to surrendering to life's process with a deep, stoic acceptance that will serve you time and time again. It's a not-so-secret superpower that will have people wondering how you are capable of handling, or achieving, so much.

At Strive Holistic we’re passionate about combining diverse treatment options and recommendations to provide your body with the high level bodywork its been craving. Feel your best, be your best with the support of deep tissue massage, mobility training, strengthening, stretching recommendations and more.
