Deanna’s commitment to wellness, self-care, and self-improvement was established at a fairly young age. The road that led her to her current outlook on such things has been a winding one and heavily shaped by her efforts to understand her own place in the world and how best to function in it. 

Deanna has sought direction in various disciplines – conservation, yoga, meditation and mindfulness, exercise, and health-consciousness. While each of these things has played its own important role in her growth, massage therapy is the first of such disciplines that she truly became rooted in. It is one of the few things that Deanna genuinely believes everybody can derive some benefit from.

As a therapist, Deanna takes great pride and pleasure in being a part of others' journeys of self-care and healing. She believes that each individual has their own unique way of being in the world. Through massage, Deanna wishes to connect with, encourage, and teach people who resonate with this thinking. 

Deanna graduated from the Pittsburgh School of Massage Therapy. She has also been certified in Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage since 2016. Deanna received her certification in Ashiatsu through Deepfeet Bar Therapy in 2022. Tending to a varying blend of Swedish, Myofascial, Deep Tissue, and Trigger Point techniques, no two massages Deanna gives are the same, just as no two people are the same. Her number one goal for every session is to create space for a whole person just to be. People often find her work to be deeply relaxing and comforting. Deanna offers Therapeutic Massage, Ashitatsu, Thai Massage, Sports Massage, Prenatal Massage, Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Table Thai, Cupping, and Fascia+Fluid Massage. 

Outside of massage therapy, Deanna spends as much time as possible with her dog and loved ones. A collector of hobbies, but regularly enjoys hiking, woodworking, and traveling.
