Somatic Healing, LMT

My belief is that pain is not just a physical problem. It is infused with our beliefs, our health, our mental attitudes and the way we move and engage with the world around us. This is all affected by trauma that can add an extra layer of protection and creating a separation between our highest self or inner voice, making it difficult to get to the 'root' of the problem for some individuals.

My belief is that pain is not just a physical problem. It is infused with our beliefs, our health, our mental attitudes and the way we move and engage with the world around us. This is all affected by trauma that can add an extra layer of protection and creating a separation between our highest self or inner voice, making it difficult to get to the 'root' of the problem for some individuals. But by using the body as a vehicle to encourage a gentle letting go, we create space for healing and recovery to occur. I use a multi-pronged approach that is non-invasive, focusing on the nervous system and its interconnection to fascia, blood flow, lymph flow, emotions, imbalance and pain. I truly believe that love is at the heart of healing and infuse it in everything I do. It is with great reverence and honor I support healing for all ages and stages of life.

Shandra is FABULOUS -- the session was gentle, relaxing and healing. She briefly described what she would be doing before starting, made sure I was comfortable and then worked her magic. I appreciated insights she shared with me, too. They made perfect sense.
