~ Bodywork ~
​
As a life long dancer, I see bodywork as a healing dance between two bodies. My massage sessions flow like water, carrying the receiver on a meditative journey down stream to discover what healing jewels lie below. My practice is rooted in the grounding elements of nature, channeling healing energy into your body, mind, and spirit.
​
I practice both table and floor work specializing in:
​
Thai Massage
Shiatsu
Acupressure
Craniosacral
Prenatal & Postpartum Massage
Abdominal Massage
Reiki
Intuitive Energy Healing
Botanical Bodywork
​
​
What is Botanical Bodywork?
Botanical Bodywork is what I call the convergence of herbalism and bodywork. Traditionally many bodyworkers worked with herbs incorporating plant medicine into their healing arts practice and vise versa. In a botanical bodywork session
we spend half the time in a bodywork flow and half in a conversational herbal intake flow which may include tongue and pulse assessment and space holding for a discussion about your healing journey and wellness goals. After our session, I craft custom herbal remedies suited just for your needs.
Sometimes in the bodywork portion, I may channel a plant spirit or a few that want to come down into the session and bestow their unique healing gifts.
About Abdominal Massage:
The center of our being is rooted in the naval and so much gets stored in this area of the body that is commonly left untouched in most massage sessions. Abdominal massage is profound work that supports emotional release, digestive health, constipation relief, reproductive health, fertility, organ balancing, and overall wellness. Different areas of the belly correspond to individual organs and through therapeutic touch can be influenced and brought back into balance. Abdominal massage supports a wide array of reproductive experiences as well including:
​
Painful or Irregular Menstruation
Uterine or Ovarian Fibroids
Endometriosis
Postpartum Recovery (vaginal or cesarean)
Abortion & Pregnancy loss
Conception
Menarche Transition
Menopausal Transition
Healing from sexual trauma
