Shari is a Massage Therapist, Educator, Yoga Instructor and Owner of Healthy Touch Massage & Bodywork. Shari’s intention is to offer healthy touch experiences to those needing relief from stress, tension and pain. With so many of us in busy jobs, using our heads all the time, we tend to get “out of touch” with our bodies. Massage and Yoga are wonderful ways to take some time for yourself, to breathe, reconnect with and increase your awareness of your body.
