What you should know about me: I believe that endometriosis should be treated holistically, taking into account the whole person and not just their pelvic floor. I have found that my clients who come to see me with a diagnosis of endometriosis have suffered for, on average, 10 years with painful periods, bowel dysfunction, and fertility struggles. I work using both manual visceral techniques and have taken courses with Ramona Horton and Jennifer VandeVegte, along with using a lifestyle approach by optimizing sleep and nutrition, and giving my clients tools to manage their pain and stress and empower them to live their lives fully.
