Trained in a methodology learned in Mexico and Berlin, my offering is rooted in my belief in the power of healing touch. Our first language out of the womb, touch, is vital in communicating comfort, safety, and love - conditions which facilitate deep, embodied transformation. I use long, slow, and deep strokes on muscles and connective tissue (fascia) to support trust, ease, and relaxation in the body. This helps regulate the nervous system, allowing the body to melt, open, and for energy to flow freely. Through presence, deep care, and intuitive guidance, I support the body’s innate ability to heal - to let go of physical tension, emotion, energy or fluid blockages, and trauma stored in the depths of body tissue.

When my body meets yours, I draw on my own journey - through international law and academia, the raw edges of war and violence, the resilience of the human spirit, and healing that became crucial after witnessing widespread human atrocity firsthand. From this authentic, embodied space, I invite you to slow down; reconnect with your innate gifts, creativity, clarity of mind; and nurture that which elicits aliveness within you.

I believe your unique and authentic essence is a magnificent thread in the vast, wild tapestry of life-affirming culture.

Pricing & Gift Economy

My offering is based on a sliding scale rooted in nourishing a culture of care and reciprocity. Rather than a fixed price, you are invited to feel into your own pool of resources and choose the amount within the ranges below that feels possible and genuinely reciprocal—an exchange that reflects the value you receive. My wish is for you to feel seen and respected in your financial reality, rather than assuming each of us has the capacity to pay a fixed price. If you’d like to read more about sliding scale pricing and why I choose it, see here.

Investment and session length

Because of the slowness and depth of this work, sessions are a minimum of 1 hour 15 minutes, allowing spaciousness, care, and patience to support the body’s natural integration and healing.

1 hour 15 minutes: $140 - $160

1 hour 30 minutes: $150 - $170

1 hour 45 minutes: $160 - $200

These prices honour the depth of experience I bring, my own financial needs as a single mother, and the wider ecology of this work. Your contribution helps keep this work accessible, grounded in trust and integrity, and allows me to gift sessions to mothers within our community.

Honouring mothers through gift

Each moon cycle I gift a treatment to a single mother in recognition of the immense and exquisite effort and responsibility mothers hold in nurturing the life that is future generations. I long to be part of culture that revers, nourishes, and centres mothers and their children so they, and culture that ripples out from their relationship, thrives. Nominate a mother, or reach out directly, mama!

Location

I offer treatments in Lake Hāwea.
