Integrative Bodywork for Women + infants

Drawing upon Craniosacral Therapy, Pre and Perinatal Somatics, Visceral Manipulation, Manual Therapy + Emotional Clearing these sessions use intentional touch, movement, and processing to bring the nervous system into balance. This approach helps bring the unconscious, traumatic memories stored in the body into conscious awareness in a safe and supported way. This way, the nervous system and body can come into a pattern of regulation, free of distress and restrictions held in the tissues. When our bodies are free of distress and restrictions we bolster our resistance to disease, chronic pain, and daily stress.

Lesha is also specially trained to work with newborns and has been working with newborns for 12 years both as an Occupational Therapist and Craniosacral Therapist. She has specialized training in conception, time in utero, delivery, attachment theory, and postpartum needs from the baby’s perspective. The main focus for babies is Craniosacral Therapy. Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that facilitates the body's natural ability to heal. It releases tension in the central nervous system so the entire body can relax, self-correct, and improve whole body health and performance. She works with the pulse rate of the Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF), or the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord to find and release restrictions in the body. This fluid protects our brain and spinal cord and interacts with all other systems and functions of the body. By releasing restrictions in the brain and spinal cord, the body and all of its systems are allowed to perform at their best; this naturally eliminates pain and stress, bolsters resistance to disease, and enhances health and well-being.
