Astrid has a Bachelors of Science Degree in Natural Health from Clayton College of Natural and Holistic Health and she graduated from the Houston School of Massage in 2014.

Astrid's goal is to take the client into a deep relaxation with movements that mimic the soft flow of the ocean while relieving stress and tension with deeper strokes, and help assist blood and lymph flow for the stimulation of waste and toxin elimination. With the use of her forearms and hands she creates fluid, rhythmic motions achieving a deep sense of harmony and balance both mentally and physically.
