Adrienne Elder, CMT
Philosophy
I work with people of all shapes, sizes, statures, ages, races, ethnicities, gender identities, and sexual orientations. If you have a health issue or disability, whether it's physical, mental, or emotional, I am happy to make accommodations, and to coordinate with doctors, therapists, or other care providers to develop safe, effective sessions for you.
Technique
My massage style is influenced by Yoga and Tai Chi. From my Yoga practice, I bring breath, grounding, and stillness. From my Tai Chi practice, I bring balanced motion and strength in softness. With these elements, I am able to create smooth, flowing strokes, and to blend both power and gentleness into my work.
