Denise received her certificate as a Holistic Health Practitioner from Healing Hands School of Holistic health, Escondido, CA in 1997.  Her strong desire to teach brought her to the teacher training program at Healing Hands where she became qualified to teach Circulatory Massage, Anatomy for Body-Workers and Geriatric Massage. Her many years as a Hospice volunteer in patient care led her to specialize in massage for the terminally ill. She has since developed and supervises the Massage Intern Program for Hospice of the North Coast. Interested Healing Hands students have the opportunity to intern with this specialized community under Denise’s supervision.

In 2006, a long awaited dream came true and Denise began her journey to become a Homeopathic Practitioner, graduating from Homeopathic Academy, Carlsbad, CA in 2009.  In 2014, she was granted her CCH, National Certification in Homeopathy. She has since added Homeopathic First Aid to her list of classes she teaches. Working with chronic and terminally ill patients led to a deeper study of the Immune and Lymphatic System and the development of the current Lymph Drainage class.

Denise has been in private practice since 1998 in Vista, Inner Wellness: Massage and Homeopathy. Valued for her compassion and humor, she encourages her students to assimilate the effects of massage at deeper levels, to see the possibility of healing in all clients and to really love and appreciate what an honor it is to be in the field of Holistic Health.
