Somatic Therapies
Somatic, meaning "body", therapies are a combination of modalities that I use to address the specific needs of my clients. My interest in working with people is to assist them back to wholeness in their body.
We are multi-faceted human beings and it has been my experience over the past 30 years that healing or coming back to balance is often like peeling an onion- one therapy or approach may begin the unfolding only to move to the next layer with new information for the body to utilize.
My approach in doing this is varied and interactive. As a therapist, my purpose is to work with you where you are and be a facilitator in this process.

Aston Patterning is an integrated system of movement education, bodywork, ergonomic adjustments, and fitness training that recognizes the relationship between the body and mind for well being.
Ortho-Bionomy is a gentle, non-invasive, system of healing that reminds the body of its natural ability to restore balance. Its principles are based on a simple and profound philosophy: allow the body to correct itself. The hallmark of Ortho-Bionomy is pain relief.
Reflexology is a science which deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. Stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way, a type of preventative maintenance. Reflexology is a serious advance in the health field and should not be confused with massage.
Trigger Point Therapy is an alternative therapy that focuses on detecting and releasing trigger points. Located in the skeletal muscle, trigger points are spots that produce pain when compressed. In many cases, trigger points form as a result of trauma to the muscle fibers.
