Each session, Heather shows up fully present and listens deeply. Unlike traditional talk therapy, where the focus is often on analyzing the past, we concentrate on how things feel in my body, allowing me to tap into my own innate wisdom.

I've been seeing Heather for Myo-fascial massage for several years now. The improvements in my body functions have been amazing. For me, Heather's techniques have worked better than PT or chiropractic. She's not only skilled, but incredibly attentive in listening to both my words and my body for what's going on. I make my appointments months in advance to be sure I get in to see her consistently.
I’ve also had Mind-Body sessions with Heather. She is skilled and insightful. The life-aids developed in each session is both surprising and very do-able.
