About

As the internet became more accepted into our homes the need for a travel agent became less and less. Around the same time my youngest child was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, High-Functioning Autism. I spent the next few years in a tailspin trying to find ways to help her. I watched in amazement as a more holistic, all natural approach did what no western medicine techniques could accomplish for her. Some of those approaches included various techniques to stimulate the sense of touch.

I started by studying Reiki Therapy. Reiki a Japanese word meaning universal life energy. This ancient natural method of healing touches the body without physically touching the body. (How else do you connect with a child who feels pain when you touch them?)

The benefits this approach provided opened my eyes to try other techniques. While I worked toward a Master/Teacher level in Reiki I sampled Yoga, learned Feng Sui, and began receiving regular massages & CranioSacral treatments, Chiropractic adjustments and Acupuncture.

I became so fascinated with the benefits provided by Massage Therapy and CranioSacral Therapy I decided to become trained and certified in this field. I am currently State and Nationally certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork and certified in CranioSacral Therapy. Over forty percent of my clientele are infants, children and teenagers on the Autism Spectrum with Sensory Processing Disorders. My daughter now has functioning recovery of her Autism maintained by a daily sensory lifestyle and CranioSacral Therapy.
