I am a Neuromuscular Therapist and founder of Pardoe Neuromuscular Experience (PNE). I am a graduate with honors of the National Holistic Institute. I have recently become an Advanced Practitioner of Symmetry AlignSmart, a program treating postural misalignments. I will be adding a great deal of content soon! I would be delighted to facilitate your healing.
My first love was dancing. Since the age of 4, I have lived the life of the performer, from community theater to Broadway, television and film. The constant connection to my body and the wear and tear over the years, has rewarded me with personal experience regarding injury, aches and pains, and the awareness of postural deviations and compensations from leaving those pains untreated. Chronic pain is not fun.
I’ve also experienced over 25 years of teaching, where repetition, patience, planning, trouble-shooting, and supporting, are a daily occurrence. Learning to collaborate with others and strive to accomplish dreams and goals, has allowed me to align my skills as a massage therapist and health educator. It’s not only a goal, but a pleasure to help you learn more about the function of your body and preventative measures you can utilize to maintain a more balanced life.
As a person in recovery for over 30 years, I am certain of very few things. Letting go is a process and takes progress, not perfection. My body is often smarter than my brain, so I listen to it. No matter how much I resist, it is usually a ‘we’ thing that saves the day. Staying open and teachable allows for a happier, healthier life.
Massage therapists don’t diagnose, we assess. I take a holistic approach, treating the whole person. Whether you are recovering from injuries, chronic pain, or wanting to reconnect with your self through a relaxing massage, I am here for you.
