My Philosophy
Synergy (n): the combined power of a group of things when they are working together that is greater than the total power achieved by each working separately
​
Our bodywork is centered around connecting with all systems of the body, and uniting them for optimal health and full quality of life. We specialize in addressing the nervous system as well as connective tissues like fascia, to help you meet the demands of your life from a grounded and functional place.
​
With experience in movement modalities, soft tissue mobilization, and exceptional client care, you can feel confident that your concerns will be heard, addressed, and cared for to the best of our ability.
from Cambridge English Dictionary
