While offering therapeutic massage/bodywork and pre/postnatal massage, I now specialize in Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Touch work for Trauma Healing & Resiliency.Clients I often see are those with chronic pain, autoimmune issues, digestion issues, long covid recovery, etc. Manual Lymphatic Drainage is great for pre-op preparation and post-op recovery. This includes MLD for prevention of lymphedema which can occur after mastectomy or any surgery that compromises the lymphatic system. MLD is also great when working with trauma, as it activates the parasympathetic nervous system - allowing the body to relax and repair.Touch work for Trauma Recovery doesn't require physical touch (for those that are not ready for that but wish to begin working towards being able to tolerate physical touch) Clients who are working with a therapist and wish to include touch therapy as a way to release stored stress trauma stored in the body. This stored stress is often at the root of disease, especially syndromes and autoimmune disorders. I am happy to schedule a 15min phone call/video chat to discuss working together and how I may be able to support you on your healing journey.
