I am a massage therapist originally from Detroit, now living in San Jose California. Of all the careers I could have selected, massage was the one that selected me. As a child I experienced the power of touch, through massaging my grandmother, Midy. She had a condition that caused extreme swelling of her legs and joint pain. Wanting to ease her pain, I would take baby oil or lotion and rub it all over her legs. At the age of five I did not have the best technique, but I knew my touch made her smile and feel better. As I grew older I never forgot that time with Midy, and I knew one day I would become a professional massage therapist. So, after completing college and several years in the corporate world, with the support of my friends and family, I pursued my dream of learning the healing art of massage.
Each client has different needs, so I tailor each session to fit their goals. I strive to ensure complete comfort; to soothe tired aching muscles, reduce muscle spasms and cramping, improve muscle function and range of motion. Massage is also a great way to experience improved sleep, flexibility, reduce swelling and headache pain. Using a variety of techniques, including focused breathing, deep tissue massage, sports massage, facilitated stretching, as well as traditional Thai massage, I create sessions specific to each client’s body.
My massage education was received through the DeAnza Community College Massage Therapy program, the School of Shiatsu and Massage in Middletown CA and TMC School of Chiang Mai, Thailand. Currently I hold the post of VP of Education for the Silicon Valley unit of the American Massage Therapy Association, the AMTA. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Wayne State University.
When I am not in the massage room, I can be found practicing Bikram Yoga, riding my bike with my awesome husband or cooking up a storm. Please give me a soon call to set up an appointment.

- Swedish massage
- Trigger point therapy
- Myofascial release
- Proprioceptive neuromuscular therapy
- Deep tissue massage
“I always adapt my techniques to the specific needs of every single client. My main focus is the well-being and balance of the person as a whole. I strive to provide high quality massage while responding to the client’s needs and concerns. I am dedicated to making people feel better and I like to practice what I preach. In order to help my clients in the best way possible, I maintain my condition through regular massage, chiropractic care and exercise: lots of stretching, TRX, yogalates, bodysculpt, hiking, swimming.” – Estelle
“I highly recommend Estelle, she did an amazing job on my really painful scapula and lower back!! I feel much better now thanks to her, I keep going to see her from time to time to get my body relaxed and painless.
She is always very flexible with making appointment and I already referred one of my girlfriend and my husband as well!” – Lydie
