osteopathic and chiropractic style manipulations, along with exercise
and dietary practices.

special focus on origins and insertions of muscles at joints.
250 hours training in Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure®
as well as attending classes in

I have a Masters degree in Body Pschology from The Naropa Institute and advanced certification in the Rosenberg System of Integrated Body Psychotherapy, (IBP), which employs sensory awareness, breath, movement and stress postures to deepen awareness.
I received certification for a two year Clinical Integration course with Lonny Jarrett on the Fundamentals of Chinese Health Assessment.
My training provides wonderful tools, but most of all I try to be a witness and support for my client's process in the here and now.
