I’m guessing you are here because there is something that doesn’t “feel right.” Perhaps it is a pain in your lower back or just the nagging sensation that things “could be better.” Maybe you feel like a chronic injury is holding you back from enjoying playtime with your children or you find yourself in a job you hate but can’t seem to leave.
Whatever your reasons for visiting, I am so glad you are here. The first step in healing is reaching out to ask for help. I am here for you.
That is the secret to Thai Yoga. Based on Nuad Bo-Rarn, the ancient medical massage style of Northern Thailand, Thai Yoga is a dynamic, therapeutic approach to healing that uses reflexology, acupressure, myofascial release, and passive stretch to promote physical, energetic, and spiritual wellbeing. This deeply relaxing, pain relieving, and soul retrieving blend of assisted yoga, mindful movement, and bodywork encourages increased range of motion, relief of pain and muscle tension, muscle lengthening and flexibility, and improved lymph and blood circulation.
Drawing from Traditional Thai Medicine, Ayurveda, Reiki, and Somatic practices, my approach to healing takes into consideration the difficulties and pressures we face in today’s society.
Working with the body, mind AND spirit, we will sift through the layers of limiting beliefs, old habits and holding patterns, injuries and tensions - releasing energetic blockages and freeing up your range of motion to bring your entire being back to a state of natural equilibrium.
