"The first wealth is health" ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
My love of natural therapies came early in life. They developed from the pathways and techniques that brought me relief from various forms of illness and injury (more in-depth story to come.) I learned through suffering then finding relief after years of allopathic Dr.'s not being able to help, that health is indeed the first wealth and nature is the best medicine. We have all been gifted with the innate ability to heal and thrive, though we need to give our bodies the right support and environment for this to occur. The techniques I share have become my trusted tools for balanced living. I found my passion in maternity care after seeing the need pregnant women have for good support coupled with the ability to have a profound affect on the human condition from the start! Keeping pregnancy healthy, birth safe and sacred and the postpartum time well cared for is my honor. I'm a fan of living well to promote longevity and enjoy helping others care better for themselves for a longer happier life.
Being a cancer survivor (twice) and working in maternity care are two reasons I aim to reduce toxin exposure in our lives. I share ways to be preventive and cleanse naturally as it's impossible to avoid all environmental exposures. I love helping others gain deeper insight and presence in their bodies with creative control to improve their health and happiness through heath coaching sessions and classes.
As a bodyworker, I began working as a massage therapist in 1996. I've worked in medical and chiropractic settings, 5 star spas as well as had a private maternity care practice for 15 years. I followed the therapies that demonstrated great truth and power to support and heal our bodies. To this day I continue to offer reflexology sessions with acuaromatherapy (the application of essential plant oils on acupressure areas for enhanced effectiveness.) I also recommend that we all get regular massage, acupuncture and are aligned with the support of a good ND.
“Self care is essential health care and prevention is a golden key” ~ Libby Golden
My work as a health coach doula includes holistic fertility planning and conscious conception, naturally healthy pregnancies and holding sacred space for deliveries that usher our little ones through in a state of grace, love and trust. No matter where or how you birth, keeping birth and the first hours and days of life undisturbed and natural is my greatest honor. Dancing for Birth™ classes are comprehensive childbirth education fused with fitness and celebration. They provide labor readiness skills and emotional connection through all stages of the childbearing year.
