Hi! Welcome to Illuminated Motherhood! I've been working with pregnant and postpartum moms since 2012 when I opened my original massage practice, The Joyous Tulip. I took the year of Covid to rethink and re-envision how I could better serve women through the stages of contemplation/readiness for pregnancy, pregnancy and the postpartum year.
Bringing new life into the world involves deep transformation for the body, mind and spirit. There are so many physical changes that happen! In addition to physical changes, mom is going through the mental, emotional and spiritual process of embodying this new identity of "mother" and what that means to her. I provide the healing space to be able to process this transformation into motherhood.
I believe the experience of pregnancy, birth and parenting can be a path of personal healing and growth as well as spiritual awakening.
Through offering massage as well as Reiki, a form of energetic healing, I help women to physically feel better, feel emotionally supported, heal in body/mind/spirit, and to embody illuminated motherhood.
