While one might say that Natasha found massage therapy through a series of winding and unexpected roads, it feels equally, if not more true to say that it found her. It is “work” that doesn’t feel like work to her, work that she understands as an art form, work that she is enthused, fascinated and energized by. Helping others is the most rewarding, purpose-fulfilling way to spend her days and she is honored and deeply grateful every time she gets to join alongside her clients in their healing journey. Having navigated (and continuing to navigate) learning about her congenital bilateral hip dysplasia a few years back, her work is strongly influenced by a deep and firsthand felt sense of discomfort, pain, restricted movement, and frustration. From this place, she daily journeys into how she can bring more ease, fluidity, functional and optimal movement to her body, as well as to that of her clients. It is through this internal experience that she is able to relate and collaborate with her clients on a deep and authentic level which she has been told not only supports her clients’ physical well-being, but energetic, emotional and spiritual well-beings as well. Her approach is also strongly influenced by myofascial work, nervous system regulation, passive range of motion and the ability and power to tune in, listen to the body and utilize various modalities at any-given time. As each day is new and we are new in it, so is each session she shares with her clients. In her free time, you can find her both resting and rejuvenating through movement of various forms, especially when it includes sunshine and fresh air. Whether it is cycling, dancing, rock climbing, or anything in between, including trying new and nerve racking things such as scuba diving, she comes to life when exploring what her body is not only capable of, but wants to express and work through. While she once identified as someone fear ridden and highly anxious, it has been though these experiences and activities that she has come to believe in the power and ability we have to progress and evolve, to take our aches, pains and anxieties and transmute and transform them and once more, will be honored to join alongside you in your healing journey!
