About Joy

Born and raised in New Jersey, Joy graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and then moved to Virginia, where she sustained a serious and painful injury. While recovering, Massage Therapy provided astoundingly positive results and her life was forever changed.


After earning her Massage Therapy license in 1984, Joy spent 15 years working closely with a perinatalogist in Virginia treating individuals with high-risk pregnancies.


In 2007, Joy relocated to California. Following a year and a half on staff at the Esalen Institute, she opened her current therapeutic massage practice in downtown Monterey.


She has also worked as a massage provider in several of the world's most esteemed spas — The Spa at Pebble Beach, and at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn.
