ART, Assisted Release Therapy™ is trauma informed bodywork that uses Acupressure, Shiatsu, and Myofascial release to get to the root of chronic pain and tension, and create lasting change. Assisted Release Therapy also uses mind/body processing techniques such as breath work, guided visualizations, and Chi Kung movement to deal with the effects of stress, trauma and emotional triggers on the body, including PTSS/PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome). ART incorporates a beautiful blend of the Classical Taoist mind/body associations and the western approach of the IFS, Internal Family System trauma model.

Trauma informed bodywork is client-centered and collaborative. Performed fully clothed, touch is employed gently and compassionately. Working at a slower pace allows for the client to process on a deeper level and move towards fully integrating the effects of trauma.

Fees are sliding scale $85-$110, allowing individuals to work within their budget.
