My PracticeSince 2003, I have focused on pain management and injury treatment. I’ve worked
with newborns all the way through folks in their 90’s, in all stages of life. I’ve taken advanced courses in lymphatic drainage, myofascial balancing, craniosacral therapy, and pregnancy, and have been endorsed to work intraorally since 2008. Starting in 2013 I began working with infants and broadening my knowledge in pediatrics to support babies and their families. Integrated bodywork: for each session I will see where you’re at and vary my work to suit what you and your body need that day. Depending on your system, that can vary from a very light and gentle approach to much firmer and more direct pressure; it may include moving the limbs in stretching and unwinding; it may include working in the mouth (always using non-latex gloves); and it may be directly at the site of your discomfort, or using a more indirect approach. I will always inform you of my plan and check in throughout the session to see how you’re doing, and I encourage feedback in the moment to make sure I can be making the best choices for you. Craniosacral Session: for CST you wear comfy clothes, and using a gentle touch I’ll evaluate where you and your system are at. Treatment may include some focus on the system as a whole, or narrow in focus to a very specific structure, with mostly light touch but deep attention. It may also include intraoral work, some limb moving and unwinding, or checking in with organs or fascia. |

Areas of Focus
The building blocks I use to create a custom session for you:
Lymphatic DrainageLight work aimed at reducing edema or swelling due to illness or injury. Also helps detoxification and boosts immune response.
|
PregnancyYears of experience to help ease discomfort, pain and swelling while keeping you cozily bolstered and your baby safe and protected.
|
InfantsGentle touch and movement techniques to release tension patterns in baby's head, skeletal system, and soft tissue. The appointment is an hour and treatment usually takes 35 minutes of the hour.
|
Intra-OralMassage for the deep muscles of the jaw, tongue and face to help TMJ disorders, grinding and clenching, recovery from jaw and oral surgery, and to increase ease and range of movement in the jaw. Non-latex gloves always used.
|
Craniosacral (CST)A gentle method that seeks to balance the function of the central nervous system and to relieve stress as a major contributor to chronic pain, skeletal imbalance, and common ailments (headaches, sleep or digestive problems, cognitive problems, and recent shock or trauma anywhere in the body). It may also involve mobilization of the many delicate structures in the cranium, face and jaw.

About Me
I spend a lot of my time lately diving deeper into body-nerd things, learning about plants and making my own herbal products, and being family admin for 2 kids and 2 cats. I like to hike, climb, dance and do aerial. I live an active life, collecting injuries along the way, giving me lots of insight into various paths to recovery from injury, surgery, illness, pregnancy and birth, and the ins and outs of being a human being. I am pragmatic, with a good sense of humor about the vagaries of living in a meat suit, but also with deep care and respect for the individuals that we all are. My favorite muscle is coracobrachialis.
