We can use a variety of tools and techniques to accomplish this goal, ranging from mat-based massage work, to movement and biomechanics coaching, to somatic exercises, to consulting runes or tarot cards. The bodywork I practice is gentle but also provides enough depth to meet your body's needs for pressure. It focuses on alleviating chronic and acute pain, reducing stress, mapping boundaries, encouraging mindful awareness of the body, and creating new patterns of movement. My original training is in mindfulness-based structural integration, also known as connective bodywork.
