They/Them

Andi first discovered a passion for bodywork in Portland, OR as an industrial bread baker. Watching their coworkers develop acute + chronic work injuries fueled their desire to enter the healing field of bodywork and massage therapy. Their experience as a trained sexual assault and domestic violence advocate directly influences their ability to hold space and offer co-regulation for the emotional shifts that can occur when we address and release the tension held in our body.

Andi’s practice braids together clinical western neuromuscular science and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Their work includes techniques such as deep tissue massage, Tui Na, myofascial release, trigger point work, silicone cupping, hot stone, and Gua Sha while providing a safe space for trauma relief. Andi enjoys getting the opportunity to connect with people and meet them wherever they are!
