Client Testimonials

Here's what our clients are saying

Really like the results I am getting . Making progress! Thank You!

Excellent service. Very helpful. Not quite sure how it works, but it helps!
I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to try Cranial Sacral Therapy. Many of my symptoms that have lingered for some time have improved with only my first appointment. I’m very excited to see where it can go from here. I also really enjoyed Candace and her office. It was an inviting, comfy atmosphere. She was very professional and really knows her stuff. I can’t wait to send people I know to her!

Candace is wonderful

Candace is an excellent therapist, very well grounded and open. Her specialization in CranioSacral Therapy and its many dimensions has really paid off. She clearly has not just learned techniques buts has in fact done her own work and continues to grow. Thanks so much Candace!

Craniosacral Therapy (CST)

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, static holding touch therapy used to facilitate the release of restrictions in the bones of the head, neck, and low back, as well as any tissues connected to the Central Nervous System. This technique helps support the body's own ability to heal and self correct, and is particularly useful for the treatment of head, neck or back injuries, as well as chronic headaches, migraines and low back or sciatic pain.

CST for Child (under 9 year old)

Craniosacral Therapy has been shown to help children to feel more comfortable and improve the processing of information, which in turn creates an experience of the world that is more calm and open to exploration. This gentle modality works with your child's central nervous system to move toward harmony. Session length varies, call Candace for more information.

Lymphatic Drainage (LDT)

Lymphatic Drainage is a very gentle light massage that helps to direct lymphatic fluid towards the lymph nodes. The lymphatic system is part of your immune system and cleans toxins, proteins, cancer cells, viruses, and dead cells about 20 times faster than the body is able to do on it's own. Once a large amount of toxins are eliminated, the body is able to relax more deeply and use it's energy more directly to regenerate the cells.

In my bodywork practice, I use light touch therapies that are gentle and work in the deeper systems of the body. I acknowledge that we are more than our physical selves and work holistically in a client centered approach. When receiving regular CST people experience a shift in their bodies toward better all-around health which is comforting to the individual and very rewarding as a therapist.
