Therapy for Chronic Illness and Health Challenges
Living with chronic illness and health challenges can feel like an ever changing landscape of pain, symptoms and emotions.
Whether or not you’ve received a diagnosis, knowing your body isn’t functioning properly can create a lot of stress, things like:
How will I maintain my independence?
How do I process the emotions when trust and connection has been lost to my body?
What is my identity when I don’t look or move the same?
All of this can be exhausting to say the least!
Bodywork therapy and therapeutic massage for chronic illness
As one who lives with chronic illness, I understand the many challenges faced trying to navigate the world in an ever changing body. I have found through my own care how important it is to work practitioners who understand first hand the challenges faced when living with a chronic illness.
I want you to feel seen and heard in our work together because so many times this area falls short in healthcare.
Our work together will instill a sense of hope, that you are not alone in your journey to seek better health. I will be there to celebrate your successes no matter how big or small because they all are important.
So, how can I help you?
Think of me as part of your healthcare team.
I am here to spur a sense of curiosity that allows you to safely explore and connect to the parts of you that are not in harmony. This creates the space for a more holistic approach for healing and the restoration of more optimally functioning health.
Most dis-ease did not appear out of nowhere or show up overnight and all have an emotional component that contributes to the cause. The combination of somatic light-touch therapy offers an integrative approach for physical and mental/emotional healing.
Pain and stress are amazing guides, they provide great insight into what is not functioning in health and many times will be the starting point for our work together.
When pain and stress are left unattended they greatly impact a person’s ability to heal. By addressing areas of stress, decreases in pain and symptoms can occur while increasing the ability to emotional cope.
The aim of our work together is to get you feeling better and functioning towards more optimal health. This allows you to have more autonomy over your health and learn to live a life that is still full within its changing perimeters.
