Services



Bodywork
 
Sessions may include pulse analysis, tongue analysis, contact with subtle energy circuits within the body, passive and active movement, postural assessment and ergonomic coaching, acupressure, polarity balancing, and other modalities. They are a blend from many influences (see background post)  and are always tailored to the particular needs of my clients at the particular time.


Homeopathic & Herbal Consultations 

Acute Care Classical Homeopathic Consultations for Viral Symptoms
Initial wellness questionaire filled out at home, followed by consult either by telehealth or at my office in Silver City, NM to determine individual tendencies and most similar remedy for either prevention or care of symptoms. Follow up over the week.

Herbal Remedies to support high level wellness

Remedies adjusted as symptoms change. Interactive personalized remedy matching. Herbal Tonics in tea, tablet or tincture form can be used to support the immune system both to prevent infection or to treat actual symptoms. They work most effectively when used to prevent or to nip the infection in the bud so to speak. 

I wildcraft and grow many of the ingredients in the tinctures or herbal teas. I can also recommend herbal tablet and capsule formulas by other companies, both Chinese and Western approaches.

The Elegance and Efficacy of Acupressure

I am so happy to be focusing again on Acupressure to solve acute and chronic tension patterns. It is always thrilling to feel tension knots melt beneath my fingers as two points are linked & the magnetic energy flows. People who came in the door tired & frazzled, go out of the office looking refreshed as from 8 hours of sleep, calm and enthusiastic about what lies ahead.
