Emily is passionate about helping others move, connect, and feel better in their bodies. She has a unique perspective informed by years working alongside clients with a diverse range of life experiences and goals, as well as her own journey with chronic pain. She is familiar with various patterns, stress, and challenges that can present in the body as well as the ways modern day stress affects our bodies. Emily strives to bring support, compassion, and knowledge to every session while allowing space for each individual to find their balance.

In the treatment room, Emily intuitively blends massage and bodywork modalities grounded in the intention to work toward each client’s goals. She approaches Pilates and movement with a sense of curiosity and exploration, offering individual support, options, and guidance within private and group settings. She is continuously inspired by her clients, environment, and community.

Moving through her first few years as a massage therapist, Emily had the opportunity to work alongside many skilled practitioners sharing their unique perspectives to bodywork within spas, massage clinics, integrative wellness, and community wellness settings. While practicing in Tucson, Arizona at Rooted Integrative Wellness, Emily began working with Centerline Movement and exploring how movement and manual bodywork modalities can work together to help us all move through life feeling more nourished, connected, and whole. She completed comprehensive Pilates teacher training with Centerline before returning to Knoxville in 2017 and has continued to explore these connections in private practice.

Returning to her roots, Emily is thrilled to see Knoxville’s focus on shared outdoor space and the growing small business community along Sevier Avenue. It is her goal to cultivate a space along the South Knoxville Waterfront centered in the same spirit of collaboration and community she has experienced throughout her bodywork career. Outside the studio, she enjoys playing outdoors, traveling, exploring, spending time with friends and family, and taking long walks with her puppies.
