The Work
What I do -
and how I do it.
Every offering is rooted in the same foundation: four domains of health, the primacy of the nervous system, and a belief that your body already knows how to heal - when it's given the right conditions.
My approach
Rooted in four domains. Guided by your nervous system.
My practice is grounded in the STREAM framework - a methodology that addresses health across four interconnected domains: biochemistry (your hormones, gut, and internal chemistry), biomechanics (how your body organizes and moves), scars (the often-overlooked tissue that spreads and disrupts far beyond the original wound), and emotions (the physiological reality that what isn't processed lives in the body as tension, pain, and disconnection).
Beneath all four domains sits the autonomic nervous system - the master regulator that determines whether your body is available to heal at all. Every session begins by creating safety in the nervous system, because without it, nothing else lands.
I believe health is a continuity of care, not a single appointment. I work with women across the whole arc of life - pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and beyond - building relationship with your body over time.
Biochemistry
Hormones, cycle, gut health, inflammatory response
Biomechanics
Pelvic alignment, organ mobility, structural tension patterns
Scars
Scar tissue remediation, adhesions, surgical and birth-related scarring
Emotions
Somatic emotional release, stored trauma, nervous system regulation
Autonomic Nervous System
The foundation that makes all other healing possible
Session - In person
Abdominal & Womb Massage
The belly is one of the most guarded spaces in the body - and one of the most responsive to care.
90 min session $250 + gst
3-session series $700 + gst
The belly is one of the most guarded and under-tended spaces in the body - and one of the most responsive to care.
This session is largely external, working directly with the soft tissue, muscles, and organs of the abdomen through your skin. I often use castor oil during this work, which helps the tissue soften and allows for a deeper, more fluid quality of touch - please let me know in advance if you have any sensitivity to it, and I'll recommend an alternative.
Using techniques drawn from visceral and fascial work, I follow the natural mobility of the organs beneath the abdominal wall - the way they should glide and shift with breath and movement - and gently encourage release wherever that mobility has been restricted by tension, scar tissue, or holding. This can feel deeply warming, occasionally tender in specific spots, and often surprisingly emotional, as the belly tends to hold what we haven't had words for.
Come as you are. Leave more at home in yourself.
This work may support you with
Digestive tension, bloating, or constipation
Scar tissue from C-section, laparoscopy, or surgery
Menstrual pain or cycle irregularity
Holding, guarding, or armoring in the belly
Postpartum recovery and reconnection
Stress and nervous system overwhelm that lives in the gut
In person session
Holistic Pelvic Care
Your pelvis holds more than anatomy. It holds your births, your losses, your unspoken stories, the tension you've been carrying longer than you can remember.
**I WILL NOT DO PELVIC WORK ON FIRST SESSION**
120 min session $360 + gst
Your pelvis holds more than anatomy. It holds your births, your losses, your unspoken stories, the tension you've been carrying longer than you can remember.
A session begins seated, in conversation - understanding what's present in your body and what you're hoping to move toward. From there, we move into hands-on assessment of the external pelvic structures: the muscles of the pelvic floor, the connective tissue of the hips and low back, the patterns of holding or guarding that have built up over time.
Where it feels right and with your full, explicit consent, the work may also include internal pelvic assessment and therapeutic touch - gently evaluating the tone, mobility, and responsiveness of the pelvic floor muscles from the inside, which simply isn't possible to assess externally. This is never assumed and never required.
Throughout, I'm tracking not just tissue, but your nervous system - breath, response, the subtle signs of whether your body feels safe to soften. We move at the pace your body sets, not a clock.
This is not a medical treatment. It is an invitation back into your body.
This work may support you with
Pelvic pain, tension, or numbness
Prolapse, leaking, or pelvic floor dysfunction
Birth or postpartum integration
Pain with intimacy or penetration
Disconnection from your womb space or body
Grief, trauma, or significant life transition
In person session
Scar Tissue Remediation
Scars are a fact of life lived in a body. And yet - they are so rarely tended to.
Initial session is 3 hours and session packages are required. Initial appointment is an investment, please inquire if interested.
Before we touch a scar, we need to understand the whole person it lives in.
The Foundation Session is where all scar tissue remediation work begins. It is not a treatment - it is a comprehensive intake and assessment experience designed to give us both a complete picture of your health, your history, and your body before we ever begin hands-on work. This session is required for all new scar tissue clients, and it is arguably the most important session we will have together.
Three hours sounds like a long time. It isn't. By the time we're done, we will have covered more ground than most people have covered with any practitioner in years.
Here is what we do:
Food & Nutrition Schema
We look at how you interact with food - not to judge or prescribe, but to understand. What you eat, when you eat, how you feel before and after, your relationship with nourishment, any patterns that might be affecting your tissue health, inflammation, or healing capacity. Food is biochemistry, and biochemistry shapes everything.
Posture & Physical Body
We assess how your body organizes itself in space - your posture, your movement patterns, where you hold tension, how your pelvis sits, how your breath moves through your body, and where there are compensations or restrictions that may be connected to or contributing to your scar. We look at the whole structural picture, not just the scar site.
Stress Patterns & Nervous System
We talk about your stress - chronic, acute, historical. How your nervous system tends to respond. Whether you tend toward tension and hypervigilance or shutdown and disconnection. This matters enormously for scar work, because a nervous system that doesn't feel safe will not allow tissue to release, no matter how good the technique.
Emotional Landscape
We talk about the story behind the scar. The surgery, the birth, the injury - what happened, how it felt, what was resolved and what wasn't. We look at what emotions are present when you think about or touch the scar. We explore whether there is grief, fear, anger, relief, or numbness living in that tissue alongside the physical adhesion.
The Four Domains Together
By the end of this session, we will have a clear picture across all four domains of health - your biochemistry, your biomechanics, your scars, and your emotional body. From there, we build your plan together.
Formulating Your Plan
We don't guess. We don't use a standard protocol. Based on everything we've gathered, we identify which domain needs the most support first, what the sequence of our work together should look like, what you can do between sessions to prepare your tissue and your nervous system, and what realistic outcomes look like for your specific situation.
We may do some gentle belly work
Depending on how the session unfolds and how your body is responding, we may move into some light abdominal or preparatory bodywork in the final portion of our time together. This is never guaranteed - sometimes the most valuable thing we can do is simply complete the picture and let your body begin integrating before hands-on work begins.
This is the foundation. Everything that comes after is built on what we establish here. The time we spend in this session is what makes all subsequent work genuinely impactful rather than simply symptomatic.
Common scar locations we work with
C-section
Episiotomy or perineal tearing
Hysterectomy or other pelvic/abdominal surgery
Laparoscopy or endometriosis excision
Appendectomy, hernia repair, or abdominal procedures
Trauma or injury to the pelvis or abdomen
