Sessions are designed to not be limited to one note or one time. Each opportunity we connect, will be an opportunity to explore active and current sensations in the body, in reflection to the relational and emotional self, with hands on applications.The process will build mind-body awareness through a direct and gentle approach. A systematic plan for treating the nervous system will relax the feeling centers and unwind. This in translation, may it be- seen also as: Let us be open to the wonders and curiosities of how the structure is poised to holding patterns and why these patterns may be imploring the body, mind and spirit into dis-ease. Similarly, this work is Psycho-Somatic/Psycho-Spiritual, not separating of body, mind- soul. Traditional Chinese Medicine holistically blends in with visceral and osteopathic systems, to bridge together Clinical Western applications for a balanced approach. Trauma informed knowledge and studies for treating and accessing safety, creates a container to hold space for many forms of processing, relating closely to Somatic Healing. We will use Polyvegal Theories and Vagus Nerve Approaches calming the symptoms of: Chronic Dysregulation. As a life long studier of dance and energetics, embodiment practices will be explored through thoughtful sound, breath, and movement offering - unique experiences of rest and meditation. Some would say this work is: Massage. Some would call this work: Therapy. Its all of both! I am an ever evolving student of many studies, who cares very deeply for the body, and the constitution to human nature. Always considering how to better support and build healthier systems-wholistically. Eco-logically. A licensed massage therapist, with experience and passion!
