Body Work
Nervous System Reset
2 hour Session
$200
Allow me take you deep into inner-space. Informed by massage therapy, trigger-point, breathwork, trauma integration, body mechanics, cranio sacral therapy, polarity and energy work, this session transforms the nervous system. Together we open lines of communication throughout your body, release triggered areas while respecting injuries, and circulate energy throughout your system. You'll receive a thoroughly relaxing full body massage and drop into a relaxed nervous system state.
Pregnancy Session
2 hour Session
$200
Pregnancy changes the body and mind in the most incredible way, and healing touch can be a huge support as you go through this transformation. Much like my Nervous System Reset, this service focuses on relaxing the mind and body, but unlike it is completely catered to a pregnant body's needs. Supporting families and pregnant women is my favorite offering, and you will be well cared for and nurtured in my hands.
Moon Session
2 hour Session
$200
Set aside time each month to receive nurturing touch catered specifically to your moon cycle. This can be a very sensitive time and receiving therapeutic touch can feel like a luxury, however I urge you to consider this time as crucial for self-care practices. Whether you are well aware of your cycle or have never tracked it before or have irregular cycles, this special attention will make your feel honored in your body temple. There is also anecdotal evidence that regularly stimulating the points we focus on in this work can help to regulate your cycle over time.

“To be human is to be touched.”
It is our most basic intinct
to reach out to others. Indeed from birth, we first reach out to our mother: who is our protector, our comfort and our life sustainer. All cultures throughout history incorporate some variety of healing touch into into their practices of care for self and others, and hold the belief that it is a critical component of our wellbeing. I hold that same belief; one of humankind’s core pillars of wellness is to receive loving touch, which also connects us to other human beings. Through others, we can seek and find care love, refuge, community and healing.

“When we as a society begin to value mothers as the givers and supporters of life, then we will see social change in ways that matter.”
It is incredibly important
to be held at all times in life, and especially while you are creating space for another life. As a caregiver who values the work of motherhood, I hold women and especially pregnant people in high regard, and recognize their deep need to be cared for. My practice with caregiveing and touch has shed a light on how deeply needed support and touch is for prenant women and humans. I believe mothers and parents being supported will help change the world; when a parent is supported, they can give their best to their children. Through this work you can allow yourself to receive support and comfort.

Moon massage
Sacred Cycles
Womens’ bodies and the bodies of those who have uteruses contain within them an extraordinary power/gift/responsibility. We empower ourselves when we acknowledge and honor the uniques rhythms of our individual bodies. This work aims to better acquaint you with your menstrual cycle, or moon cycle, and a routine for self care on a monthly basis. If you experience a lot of pain during your moon cycle, there is no need to suffer through it alone - there are ways to alleviate the discomfort without as much need for medication.
Alongside massage techniques which focus on the relief of the hips and low back, I also incorporate the use of acupressure points which are known in Chinese Medicine which facilitate moving the blood, grounding energy and regulating the reproductive system. Beyond pain relief, this kind of stimulation is also anecdotally known to tone the uterus and prepare for pregnancy.
Let's talk about what you need. We take up to half an hour to discuss what's alive in your body and whether I'm the right fit for you in your healing journey. Plus, if its needed, I offer a 5 minute Co-Regulation practice to help settle your nervous system in the moment.

Curious About Massage for the Workplace?
Show your employees some TLC by treating the office to mini-sessions. This work is clothes-on chair massage, at 20 minute intervals, so a small break in the day can have a great impact. Or you can use this as an office party treat. You can expect employees to return to their work with greater calm, clarity, morale and that extra bit of energy they needed to get through the work day. Plus, you help to build that good-mood work atmosphere.
*Given the context Covid-19. I have decided to take up some extra precautions when offering this service. I now offer mobile massage to work at peoples’ homes in well ventilated indoor spaces, and always with a mask. Thankfully massage therapy is an inherently hygiene-centric industry, and cleanliness practices were already a part of my routine. You can feel safe knowing I am taking health and cleanliness very seriously.
