A Holistic Approach to Acute and Chronic Pain
Massage Therapy • Bodywork • Family Constellations • Energy Healing
My practice focuses on reducing acute and chronic pain body pain by getting to the root of the problem as well as releasing multi-generational issues that affect our physical, emotional and mental health.
Holistic Health looks at all of you to figure out what might be wrong. I look at where the problem needs attention including: the fascia, boney structures, muscles, nerves, fluids and energy. In each unique session my goal is to select the correct technique or approach that will give you permanent changes, vibrant health and the freedom to move in body, mind and spirit.
I can also help explore the morphic energy field where we can work with family systems, usually in a separate session. Family Constellations allow us to clear pain and suffering that may go back for hundreds of years with compassion and care.
Due to COVID-19 all clients must wear a mask during a live session. I am maintaining the highest standards of sanitation to both of us safe and healthy. Individual Family Constellations sessions are on only on ZOOM.

Better Back Pain Relief
Research into back pain is increasingly looking at fascia as the hidden cause. Fascia is the connective tissue that wraps around all of our muscles, bones and joints. Until recently, fascia was seen by science as just “packing material.”
Now, research is showing that fascia is actually filled with pain receptors, is a key component to maintaining good posture and movement, and changes its shape in response to our emotions, stress and trauma.
A number of current studies are focusing on the role of the thoracolumbar fascia in back pain. This diamond-shaped fascial sheet covers the deep muscles of the back and hips. When it becomes restricted, the thoracolumbar fascia creates pain and limits movement in the lower back.
Using Myofascial Pain Therapy and specific stretching can change the fascia into a more flexible and healthy tissue, which thereby reduces pain.
I have been myofascial techniques for many years, but now this new research is helping me to refine my sessions for even more effective results with clients. Please let me know how I can help you relieve your fascia-related back pain to get you back to feeling your best. Refer a new client for a bodywork session and get 50% off your next appointment.

May you awaken to the mystery of being here...
A BLESSING
May you awaken to the mystery of being here and enter the quiet immensity of your own presence.
May you have joy and peace in the temple of your senses.
May you receive great encouragement when new frontiers beckon.
May you respond to the call of your gift and find the courage to follow its path.
May the flame of anger free you from falsity.
May warmth of heart keep your presence aflame and may anxiety never linger about you.
May your outer dignity mirror an inner dignity of soul.
May you take time to celebrate the quiet miracles that seek no attention.
May you be consoled in the secret symmetry of your soul.
May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of wonder.
John O'Donohue (Anam Cara)
