This is my particular "medicine," my gift, my own distinct approach.
I weave Craniosacral Fascial Therapy, Ortho-Bionomy® and other established therapies.
Over time and multiple trainings, I've also learned to trust my ability to "listen" with my hands and intuition
to find subtle restrictions. Then with gentle touch I track the restriction and gently invite release.
For any and all of us, there's healing in feeling deeply heard.
My "Intuitive Fascial Release" can provide relief for conditions like:
- Migraine, tension & sinus headache
- Whiplash & concussion
- Brain injury; foggy brain, overthinking
- Depression & anxiety
- Restricted breathing
- Dental and surgical trauma & scars including C-sections
- Chronic pain
- Sleep issues
- Healthful, graceful aging (see end of page)

One system I draw on is CFT, a potent approach to relax fascia and dental issues that draws on concepts from Craniosacral Therapy.
The difference between Cranial Fascial Therapy -- or brain therapy -- and Craniosacral Therapy?
CFT’s founder, Dr. Barry Gillespie, says, "In my mind the fascial web appeared to rule the craniosacral system. I believed that the marriage of two great therapies, craniosacral and myofascial, into craniosacral fascial therapy was the ticket. When I added my periodontal oral/pharyngeal aspect, I felt something special was born.
“Later, I discovered a direct connection between the craniosacral and fascial systems, since a research study showed that cerebrospinal fluid was found in the collagen tubules. In essence I was getting maximum clinical results because I was treating the entire craniosacral fascial system.”
An early-adopter, I trained directly with Dr. Gillespie. Though he particularly focuses on working with new borns and toddlers, I love working with adults.

Can you benefit from Intuitive Fascial Release?
ence. . . I can, potentially, feel all this in my hands, in my energy, and in the space between us. Being open to things happening that I may not be able to understand allows the whole process to blossom. . ..

- Many clients seek relief from stress and tightness they've grown so familiar with they don't know, remember, that they can feel differently. They have headaches, tight necks and/or restricted pelvis. Their feet and legs bother them. Sometimes the pain just moves around.
- Some are challenged by dental trauma such as root canals and wisdom tooth extractions and have no idea that can cause full body issues. Dentists certainly don't mention it. Learn more about dental work and CFT here.

A few contra-indications for receiving hands-on fascial release sessions include
Aging
What we believe about getting older (I'm a grey-head!) has much to do with our experience and expectations. I am an initiated Elder, a "Way-shower," and also offer that wisdom.
- Recovering from major surgery (allow 6 weeks for recovery)
- Living with an indwelling shunt
- Currently having orthodontic work done
- Recovering from a stroke

“. . . What if aging has something to do with all structural tissue becoming very slightly tighter with each trauma after conception. Over a lifetime that tightness probably would create poorer physiology and more toxicity in the body. This concept makes sense because as people age in our culture, they tend to loose flexibility, develop arthritis, and need canes, walkers, etc. What if newborns had CFT at birth and CFT thru their entire lives? What if a 90-year-old had a very loose body? I know that I am biased, but a lifetime of CFT could be a key piece of the aging puzzle.”
