Trauma and stress don’t just affect the mind. They affect the whole body. Which is why healing that trauma, and the physical health issues it leads to, requires a holistic approach.

  • Proven practices that correct muscle imbalances to improve posture, reduce pain, and regain energy
  • Strategies for improving bodily awareness, to help you better recognize what your body needs to heal
