My Experience as Caregiver During summer of 2012 I had the opportunity of providing home care for my dear friend Trossine, (a 63 year old woman with chronic Osteoarthritis in the neck and lower back, and suffering the side effects of heavy doses of morphine). During the three months I assisted her, we were able to setup a holistic goal-health plan that allowed her to regain back her strengths, the ability to regain her mental abilities after the medication was suspended, and empower her to regain control of her health. While volunteering as a massage therapist at the Gloria E. McClellan Senior Center in San Diego, I was able to provide seniors between 80 to 96 years old with their first massage. The experience resulted in the facilitation of a flow of subtle energy that releases any blockage in their body leaving them feeling balanced, recharged, and reenergized. As a result of such a wonderful experience, I decided to share my holistic holistic approach with those in need of achieving wellbeing and quality of life. As a health practitioner with a natural instinct, and gifted hands for massaging the body, I will assist and enhance your ability to maximize independence and improve your wellbeing through the integration of complementary and traditional medical approaches, and bring to you my dedication, reliability, honesty and trust.
