What is Yarrow and You?
Healing is a journey and having helpers along the way makes the path easier to navigate….

I believe the true Healer is in You…
The Yarrow plant is called the wounded healer herb.
It heals cuts and wounds and souls. It is amphoteric–it moves in the direction the body needs– to staunch bleeding or stimulate blood-flow.
I intend to be like yarrow and help your body reconnect with the healer inside of You so you can come back into balance.
Where you are on the healing path is Divine and we go from there…
At times our bodies are strong and we might have lots of endurance yet other times give rise to injury or illness. Some of us have chronic patterns or pain that challenge us daily…
…Sometimes all we need is some overdue self-care or just a little dang relaxation!!!
Getting regular bodywork can be immensely helpful in each and all of these scenarios.
………………………………………………
I starting my formal training in the healing arts by studying massage therapy and colon hydrotherapy at the New Mexico School of Natural Therapeutics in 2012.
Before that time I had not had much bodywork at all throughout my life although I was nearing my 36th trip around the Sun and dealing with some tricky health issues.
Since then, I have been introduced to and have studied many different healing modalities and types of bodywork…
…and have experienced many subtle and profound shifts in my own body and witnessed similar shifts in my clients.
Like layers of an onion, getting regular bodywork can help us work through things we may be unconsciously storing in our bodies…
…it can allow us to be more “in tune” with our body, how to listen to it, how to dialogue with it.
I continue to be grateful to my many amazing mentors and healing arts practitioners who help me along my own healing path.
And so I am dedicated and honored to hold space for You and the innate healing that is ready to take place.
When I am not doing bodywork you can probably find me at my farm digging in the dirt or hanging out with my three farm cats.
