  • What is Somatic Bodywork?

    Somatic bodywork supports a comprehensive and integrative approach to working with the body. It recognizes that our bodies are a storehouse for a person’s physical, mental, emotional and psychological history. This storehouse can also reflect the body’s intelligence about how to deal with life challenges. Somatic bodywork invites your body to open and release historical patterns, tension, and possibly trauma to create space for healing and transformation.

    An integrative care doula is a non-medical professional who supports another individual through a significant health-related experience through using integrative and complimentary therapies. A doula may also provide support to the caregivers or family and friends.

  • What is an End of Life Doula?

    An end of life doula provides non-medical support and comfort to the dying person and their family, which may include education and guidance as well as emotional, spiritual, or practical care, from as early as initial diagnosis through bereavement.
