About Janine

For over 35 years, I have worked with massage and energy in both private practice and as a senior faculty member at the prestigious Swedish Institute College of Health Sciences in New York City.

Along with my extensive medical massage experience, my background includes the study of acupuncture, herbs, hypnotherapy, as well as other healing modalities. I also develop curriculum and teach the following post-graduate classes: Swedish Institute Medical Massage Certification: The Strenta Method, Exploring Energy, Oncology Massage: A Multi Therapeutic Approach, and Fusion: A Synthesis of Physical and Energetic Body Work.

I teach massage and energy workshops throughout the United States and currently have a private practice in Brooklyn.

My Story

There is a universal energy that moves through us, animates us, and creates a continuous collaboration between the physical and the etheric. As a body worker I hope to bring this understanding to everyone I touch so that each person experiences the inner wisdom and healing nature of their own body. Through my hands-on work I endeavor to reference the client's body for them, to create a vivid therapeutic experience of themselves from within themselves, and to help reorient the physical self and the energetic self to each other, and to their natural vibration of health.

As a teacher I strive to see each individual student as the Spirit they are. I teach from my heart and my experience so that I can more openly bridge my understanding and knowledge to my students and inspire them. I am overjoyed when I see their eyes light up with comprehension and their faces shine.

I am blessed to work as a teacher and a body worker, express my passion for healing on the physical and metaphysical levels, and to bring my own inner journey of growth toward Spirit into my sessions and my teaching.
