Growing up in the 70's my mother preferred holistic modalities to conventional medicine. At the ripe age of 10 years old is when I began to receive professional bodywork. Trigger Point Therapy, chiropractic, herbs and homemade concoctions of various types. You name it...we did it!   As a child I would lay on the floor in front of my father while he was sitting in “his chair” and plop my feet into his lap to receive a good ol’ foot massage from his strong hands. I now know how much this touch was nurturing, relaxing and therapeutic for me. Little did I realize I would “grow up” to do massage professionally and provide healing touch for others.   This gave me an internal awareness of my body and the ability to connect and listen to it. Today I bring this to the table with my clients, listening to their body to help with their own healing. To me a good therapist is one that can listen, with their hands, to the client’s body.   What sets me apart from other therapists is my 32 years of practice, teaching and learning. Training as a Midwife, witnessing over 40 births. Working in a woman’s health clinic as a medical assistant. Countless massage continuing education classes to deepen my knowledge, and broaden my techniques.   Techniques that fascinate and intrigue me the most are Myofascial Release, Structural Integration, Deep Tissue and Craniosacral Therapy. This is where I have honed my skills and continue to take classes regularly so I can bring them to the table to you. To make you feel better. To help you heal.   Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you. Joline ~
