My goal is to create for you something you will want to use time and time again.
Attention to Detail
I keep a very simple design while maximizing what I put into my products. I use only 100% organic ingredients to fill the packs, which are bought locally here in Eugene.
These hot/cold packs are versatile and therapeutic for what ever your ailment or discomfort.
Style & Quality
It has taken many years but I am finally satisfied with the present designs: three different channel sizes in fleece: 4, 5, and 7 channel. Each of the fleece are roughly 30" long (though some fabrics do vary) and depending on the channel they range from 5" to 9" wide.
In cotton canvas I make a ten channel and a ten channel XL. Each of these packs are 21" long x 13" wide. The XL are 25" long. I also do some XW, meaning they will have more channels to them.
Also available, cotton flannel ten channel pack. These are so soft and cuddly you will love using it! These packs are 19" long and 13" wide.
10 Channel are available with a center seam to allow for easier folding into microwave. XL and XW packs with contain two seams. (There is an additional charge for adding seams)
As always I have a new pack design in the works and I can't wait for you to try it out.
The inner seams are double sewn for extra strength to safeguard against the twisting and rolling on the packs during heating and regular use. I fill my flax packs with organic, food grade, materials because I want to offer the best and cleanest product I can to my customers.
My goal is to give you something you love and want to use time and time again.
Handmade
(excluding the fabrics)
I personally sew and fill each of the packs. It takes about 45 minutes and up to an hour and half per pack. My goal is to give you a product that you will want to use and that will last.
This is an example 7 channel pack

Massage Therapy For Women
I have always had a desire to help those around me.
After attending massage school in Eugene, Oregon, I received my license January 2003. My practice started off with Myofascial style work, combined with deep tissue and Swedish massage, through Advanced Trainings. I found these techniques to give great results for acute and chronic issues. Over the years I have attended many more continuing education workshops, that have given me a much greater toolbox to pull from. As my knowledge grows so does the awareness of my own hands. The classes through the IAHP have been wonderful! Eyeopening! In addition to amazing webinars through Anatomy trains.
Working one on one with my clients and helping them improve the dysfunction in their own bodies, is amazing. This give me purpose.
My goal is to create a safe and comfortable environment for my clients. Massage sessions are designed around each present need and preferences. Whether you are looking for deep body work, injury management, or relaxing massage, you have my full dedication, every session.
I also work as a dental assistant. My background in the dental field has allowed me to assist clients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems. The combination of TMJ massage and bringing awareness to posture and daily habits, has provided improvement for many of my clients.
Continued education is a must in both of my fields. Staying current with the best practices and procedures is a must for myself and my clients.
I look forward to meeting you or your referrals.
Thank you,
