Personal Note:

 

​I have now attended over 2,600 births and have massaged thousands of pregnant and postpartum moms, along with massaging their babies.  I have mentored new massage therapists and doulas.  And along the many years of training, I have met so many wonderful women who are fellow advocates with the same purpose in their career.  The Houston area has grown over the past 15 years and it is exciting to see how many doulas and massage therapists are now supporting pregnant mothers.  I am proud to be a part of this special work and I can't imagine my life any other way.

​

It is important for me to stay on track with a healthy lifestyle, and this includes taking time off to vacation at a health spa.  I exercise with a personal trainer several times a week to stay fit and feel good.  Definitely, love to travel!  And I love to cruise!  It is a great time of FUN when my mom and sister can cruise with me!  My travels have allowed me to go to many wonderful sights domestically and internationally.  It is such a blessing to have my family and friends close.

  

Ready to start new adventures!

Patti
