My Story
Pain is one of the most direct teachers. Foot and heel pain led Rachel to follow a friend's referral to Osteopathic Manual Therapy, deciding that getting some help was going to be worth the freedom to keep walking and meeting up with this friend. Three sessions later, Rachel was told not to come back: Who knew that the legs had anything to do with the stomach organs, that walking and even crawling rebuilt broken bridges between the brain and healthy movement. But it was true, and Rachel was free of pain even during her 5K walks.
It was a few YEARS before Rachel needed another treatment. This time she learned that stress on the nervous system had a direct relationship with allergies and hemorrhoids. Learning that she was not irreparably broken felt like being zipped back together again. With a few treatments, these issues resolved themselves and helped her avoid previously suggested surgeries. Most of all it made living in her body feel like a safe and hopeful place, again.
With a few simple osteopathic tests, Rachel has now been trained to recognize the source of chronic pain, whether muscle, joint, tissue, nerve or organ-related and address it with manual, medical-science techniques, including:
Targeted Manual Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy
Perrin Lymphatic Massage.
These specializations have been curated by study with seasoned professionals dedicated to helping more people, including Osteopathic doctors from England and France. And she's not finished yet. Rachel grows with each session and takes her questions to class each quarter to find answers for the body's riddles and her clients' needs.
