SPRING NEWS + PRICING UPDATE ☀️ For these past months, I have been reflecting on how to come back to seeing clients in a way that feels aligned with the shifting energies and capacities of new motherhood. While I am excited to get back to the table and rec***ect, I don’t see myself coming back full time for the foreseeable future, so I have decided to modify my set of offerings and continue to limit my availability for now. Thank you so much to everyone who has sent kind words and for your patience while I navigate this wild and wonderful new frontier!

I am opening just a few afternoon appointments per week that are open to all for online booking. I have put together a set of offerings that reflect what I specialize in, ranging from 30-75min sessions which include Buccal Massage, Crown to Heart Treatment, Manual Lymph Drainage, Abdominal + Castor Oil Therapy and Holistic Bodywork.

I will not be available to book online for Massage services. Yvette, who has been supporting Moontide clients during my leave (thank you Yvette!), will continue to be our primary therapist for these services which include Therapeutic Massage, Deep Tissue/Sports Massage and Prenatal Massage. Please continue to show her love, she is a wonderful therapist and I am very grateful for her energy and care that she brings to the studio!

We will be lifting our pricing $20 for massage services only beginning May 1st. It has been 3 years since any pricing changes and we appreciate your continued support! *If you’d like to take advantage of the current pricing for longer, purchase a 6 pack in the month of April at its current discounted pricing ($10 off/session). We are now offering these packages to be shared by immediate family members! Packages have a 6 month expiration and can be purchased by contacting Moontide directly. Reach out if you have any questions!

Merry Spring to all 🌸

Emphasis is on prevention, support, and optimizing health through the use of all natural, non-invasive therapies and natural substances that encourage the body’s inherent ability to self-heal. Clients are encouraged to take charge of their own well-being and control their health destiny.

ABOUT LOUISE

Louise was raised by parents who both extolled the virtues of healthy lifestyle – a mother trained as a Dietician, teacher and marine biologist and a father passionate about people, gardening and spirituality – both avid sports enthusiasts and served in the US Air Force. These values shaped her as an adult before she began a career in food and nutrition. She then developed technical training and curriculum while working as a Business Analyst, and Project Manager, focusing on root cause analysis, data insights and process engineering.

She maintained her interest in health and wellness, working with friends and their families for 30yrs showing them how natural remedies and therapies could help them in their healing journeys while studying yoga, Feng Shui, martial arts and herbology. Then Louise decided to formalize her passion for helping people by attending the Trinity School of Natural Health. She now shows people locally and across the country how natural remedy sources, modalities and therapies are our best plan for longevity and/or for a healing journey.
