Leane here! Thanks for stopping by; I’m happy to tell you a bit about myself~
I have been (and still am) a Licensed Massage Therapist since the year 2000, and a certified Kripalu yoga teacher since 2003. I’ve owned and operated a massage office and yoga studio for many years in Berlin, NH.
Fast forward to 2020. My family of 3 decided to move to Montpelier, VT right when the pandemic struck. My original plans were to take on some massage therapy work in my new community and do a little jewelry making on the side. With pandemic shutdowns, and a big move, it didn’t feel like the right time to start offering massage services to a new clientele. Luckily, some of my favorite teachers were offering massage continuing education courses via Zoom, so I took advantage of many classes to keep my head in the game, while putting in a ton of hours in my home jewelry studio, improving my metalsmithing skills and making jewelry.
I opened a massage therapy office at my home in Montpelier in 2022, introduced online scheduling, and have been seeing some amazing massage clients ever since. I recently added traditional Thai massage on the floor mat back to my practice and am having a lot of fun introducing this modality and its many benefits to my clients here. My jewelry can be found on this website, and at craft fairs around central Vermont.
I am grateful every day to be able to do what I love for work; helping people with massage therapy, and exploring creativity through metalsmithing and jewelry making.
