Reflexology is the main platform, field of information, resting place for my practice. Reflexology operates on the principle that when the body is relaxed and stress is manageable (in the parasympathetic “rest and digest”, “safe and social” state of the autonomic nervous system), it is released to use its energy to attend to any internal needs for repair and balance.

Energy Medicine
Energy medicine is a broad term that is used differently by different people. In my practice, the Energy Medicine components involve non-reflexology informed practices and frameworks such as Breath, Reiki, Eden Energy Medicine (EEM), Chinese 5-Element theory and practice (including 5-element components of EEM, chi gong, teachings from Thea Elijah). These other modalities are based on long-standing, deeply-researched “sciences” from other cultures and focus as much on the energy systems of the body as on the physical forms. Words like “energy”, “chi”, “meridian”, “aura”, “chakra”, “flow” are part of the Energy Medicine “language”.
Plants
Using organic plants and other natural ingredients, I prepare salves, lotions, and sprays that capture the restorative energies of the plants they contain. You can smell them, apply them to your skin and hair, or simply carry a container of them to connect with their healing and strengthening qualities whenever you need them and wherever you go.
