why massage?
The body has the innate capacity to heal itself under the right conditions. It is not simply a luxury it has been branded over the years, but a very useful, important and ancient practice promoting physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
The ability to manage stress + increase an overwhelming sense of calm that massage provides cannot be understated. Not only does it provide relief from injuries, chronic pains, stiffness, but it also activates the parasympathetic nervous system -- an important piece of health considering our overactive sympathetic nervous system in a stressful world. We output so much, but there are not many moments in which we truly receive and are not required to do anything other than receiving. This experience alone is of great benefit in regards to replenishing and renewing the mind, body + soul.
It's never too early to start, and never too late. I am a firm believer in the ability of massage to greatly increase quality of life. I see it everyday!
what's herbalism?
Herbalism is the study and practice of plant medicine. It is the foundation of medicine in this country, and the world. Some would call it "alternative" medicine. It is Traditional medicine. I offer herbal consultations, either accompanied with massage for a whole approach to health & longevity, or separate. I craft small batches of herbal remedies from wild/native plants here in the Berkshires.
I have a certificate and 400 hours study in herbalism.
