About Me...
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens most of us.
-Marianne Williamson
My Story
I believe that healing is not one dimensional - there are layers to pain, discomfort, stress, anxiety & depression...pain can cause stress and stress can cause pain. This is why I use multiple healing modalities such as ortho-bionomy along side craniosacral therapy, yoga therapy, or energy medicine to create harmony in the mind and body.
My story started with a car accident at 20 yrs old. I had injuries, but no memory of what happened. Fifteen years later, I woke up one morning and couldn't move my neck or arms...I had 4 herniated discs in my neck...overnight. After a year of physical therapy, epidurals in the spine, Chiropractic and pain medication with no success, the doctors suggested surgery. It just didn't feel right to me so I declined. Instead, I sat on my floor everyday doing breath work to calm my central nervous system any yoga stretches I could (Yes I have always been a Yogi). I began visualizing my spine - the discs full and juicy, my spine lengthening...4 months later I was pain free with 90% mobility. The mind and the central nervous system play a very important and powerful role in the healing process once you tap into it's abilities!
I had worked in health care for years, and began studying how emotions, stress and trauma affect the body. I realized that although my physical injuries had healed a long time ago, the emotional trauma lingered. When this happens it can cause many forms of dysfunction such as pain, anxiety, depression, and disease (cancer, autoimmune disorders, etc). The herniated discs were my body's way of telling me the emotional trauma needed to be released as well.
My path is to help you eliminate emotional and physical stress, pain & dysfunction in the body, helping you live your best life on your journey.
