Nancy in Newark (Northern NJ), NJ + Hoboken, USA

Massage Therapist

Hi! My name is Nancy.

I came to massage therapy through my love of yoga. I began practicing yoga in 2004 as a means to heal stress-related neck and upper back pain, and I am now pain-free.

I became a yoga teacher in 2009, and through my teaching, I found that I was drawn to the therapeutic aspect of yoga more so than the "workout" aspect. From there, the shift for me to study massage and bodywork was quite natural, and I enrolled in a 620-hour program at the Institute for Therapeutic Massage in Morristown, NJ in 2010, focusing primarily on Swedish and medical massage.

I was certified by the State of New Jersey in 2011. Since becoming certified, I have worked in a spa, in a holistic center and for chiropractors. My massage style is tailored to each client’s needs. Among the modalities I use are Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, foot reflexology and Reiki energy healing. Why I do what I do (and why I love it)

I believe very strongly in helping others to achieve and maintain overall wellness through holistic means. As one of my teachers said, pain-free living is our birthright. There is no greater gift that I can give people than to help free them from pain! When we are pain-free in our physical bodies, the mind and spirit will most certainly follow this path.

And lastly, I’m a lifelong music lover, so working with Dr. Dot’s team is the perfect gig for me!

“Lars (Stockholm Dotbot) took care of the band-members and left all in awe! He provided a table, towels etc which made it very easy to work with. Very on point and definitely made for an amazing show at night - thank you again! Romi (Prague Dotbot) came by, arrived early, was very well prepped (had her own table, scented candles, oils, towels) and had the brightest smile we'd seen in days! She took care of the band-members who all were left amazed and startled by her touch ;) Thanks Romana, def will hit you up next time round. Martijn Tour Manager - Ben Howard”
