Personal Statement
Vera has been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2004, graduating from the Career Education Institute in Somerville, Massachusetts where she obtained an intensive 600 hours of training.
Her training includes Swedish Massage, Deep tissue Massage, Shiatsu (Acupressure), Reflexology, Neuro-Muscular Therapy, Hot Stone Massage, Sports Massage and Pre-natal Massage.
Vera grasps into her compassion of understanding the approaches of improving an individual well-being by finding balance within their bodies in a more direct and meaningful way. This also allows her to modify each session to her clients specific needs and goals.
Vera was born on one of the beautiful Islands of Cape Verde. At a young age she moved to Massachusetts with hopes and dreams of starting her education and experience in the Holistic Environment.
Vera is an ambitious, hardworking, committed therapist with a passion of providing excellent treatments with a high level of client care.
A lot of Vera’s treatments focus on pain management. In each session, Vera asks her client to willingly participate in muscle contractions so she can effectively work on releasing specific pains. She incorporates Deep Tissue, Stretches, and Relaxation massage, for a more stress-relieving experience, if that is the client’s initial goal.
