Holistic Body Therapies

Sometimes the traditional approach to good health doesn’t work.

You’ve tried a traditional physical therapist, massage therapist or chiropractor and still haven’t gotten the results you wanted. I offer my clients a dynamic, interactive, lasting way to heal their bodies!

We all have our everyday stresses as well as past traumas that stop us from living the life we want. We cannot expect, when doing the same things in the same way, things will change. The first step in improving your body is to get off the treadmill of life, slow down, and become aware of what you are doing. I can help you do this through gentle “hands-on” techniques that awaken your body to the real possibility that life can be better, much better.

I am often asked how light touch can be so effective when deep tissue work or manipulation hasn’t worked. Light touch techniques and my verbal cues work together with your body to help get rid of stress and pain. When we work gently with the body, we foster a synergy between my training experience and your body’s natural healing powers. Your body is more willing to accept the light touch for it feels supported to make changes instead of feeling pushed, which creates resistance.

The most common techniques I employ are:

Which I use for you, alone or in combination, depends on your own desires, motivations and level of awareness.

I have been practicing a multidisciplinary holistic approach to healing for over 25 years. I have gained clinical expertise in treating orthopedic injuries, postural problems, and movement disorders. My introduction to the form of therapy I practice today was a process shaped by working together with patients to increase their awareness of what worked in their lives and using that knowledge to increase their ability to heal themselves. I had a mainstream education in physical therapy, which I found very helpful for many of my patients’ everyday problems. Yet there were always some people who did not respond to standardized treatments. It was these people who motivated me to realize I needed to learn more. My path is one of kindness. Once you are able to see your body as a source of healing rather than a source of pain, then your path to healing becomes joyful.

Together we create your wellness Goals and reach them using whole body therapies that facilitate your natural healing abilities. You empower yourself when you:
