Morgan offers gentle and deeply therapeutic bodywork that works with your body’s innate wisdom to release restrictions and restore balance within the nervous system. They approach sessions with a grounded presence and intuitive touch that honors the varying needs of anybody who enters their treatment room. Because you're the expert of your own body, they work with you to co-create an experience that aligns with your intentions for healing.

Morgan welcomes all genders and walks of life and has an affinity for supporting those with chronic pain, sensitive nervous systems, abdominal discomfort, and those who are in trauma recovery.

 

Their bodywork skillset includes myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, gua sha, Swedish and deep tissue massage, acupressure, as well as Reiki energy healing that can be offered by itself or integrated into a session. 

 

As an herbalist they would be happy to help you find your plant allies through an herbal consultation. Morgan has been studying, growing, harvesting, and preparing herbal remedies for over a decade, and with great joy continues to deepen relationships with plants daily. They work with herbs from a holistic perspective, acknowledging the interconnectedness of body-mind-spirit-environment and the intelligence of nature to support us in living more harmoniously.

 

Since we are inherently unique, imbalance and dis-ease show up differently in each of us, and Morgan has an eye for seeing which plant(s) may be a good match to support your wellness goals.

Roxanne O'Hara LMT she/her (obmt # 18908)

Roxanne has been practicing massage since 2001. She specializes in an integrated form of myofascial bodywork that incorporates training in myofascial release, craniosacral, and visceral bodywork. Her approach emphasizes deep listening to the various rhythms and movement potentials within the body, both subtle and deeper physical release techniques for the muscular and fascial systems, balancing movement for the nervous system, and space for balancing, integration, and emotional release.

 

In addition to working more generally with these forms of bodywork for whole body healing and reorganization, she also has specialized training to work with the reproductive systems of female/afab bodies. She offers bodywork for the pelvic organs to treat various reproductive conditions as well as for the purposes of increasing embodiment and healing sexual trauma.

 

Roxanne also offers healing myofascial work for the breast and lymphatic systems both for preventative health and in restoring tissue that has been altered by surgery (elective and medically necessary both honored and welcome), cancer, and radiation (this work is offered to those who have completed cancer treatments and are in remission, for those actively fighting cancer I will refer you to someone who specializes in that work). She also offers herbal consultations and support (link here for more information).  

I am mostly not accepting new clients as I am starting acupuncture school in fall of 2022. Some exceptions can be made for folks who specifically need care from me ie: pelvic trauma healing, breast/chest surgery recovery, and complex chronic pain. Please contact me to inquire about availability and if there's a good alternative. Please note that if accepted I am booked out for a couple of months.
