Last week I began an 8 week Gentle Scar Therapy program with ! I am so incredibly excited!

One of my favorite things to talk about is fascia! It’s right underneath the skin, coating every structure, creating an interconnected network within the body. Physically everything is interconnected. When fascia is disrupted, it can create a pull that can be felt an entirely different area of the body. And it can also cause interruptions in other systems within the body like the nervous system and lymphatic system. Fascia does not require great for to illicit a change. It changed my massage world when I began learning about it.

I’ve always believed that there was some level of interconnectedness between the mind body, but wasn’t until what my Hypbosis & NLP trainings taught me about subconscious mind that I really learned how deep it runs. The words we say, the sense we make out of things, all our beliefs affect our well being. The subconscious can also plays role when it comes to how pain shows up. There is so much to be considered when someone comes in for treatment.

This is the main reason why my work has shifted and is currently shifting to more integrative approach. With energy work and body work in tandem sprinkled with subconscious support. Because where the mind goes the body follows.

However, even with all of that, I still felt like something else is going on here. Which brought me back to the fascia but specifically scar tissue! It is WILD how scars treatments are not really part of aftercare. ESPECIALLY WITH CSECTIONS!!!! The stats on low back pain after c-sections in people who didn’t have back pain prior is 54%! That scar tissue impacts so many other systems and functions in the body. Like come on!

Anyway, I digress! People deserve more and I am so happy to be learning this work and being able to offer it. It will sort of be an aspect of because I plan on making this an accessible offering for the community. I am sure what that will look like exactly! Stay tuned.

Let’s talk about Grief…but not necessarily in the context of how we normally do.

I’m personally in a season of grief right now. There are just so many things, big and small. And I’ve noticed the same thing happening around me. With clients, friends, and the world at large, it just feels heavy lately.

Which brings me back to two ideas that I’ve probably mentioned if we’ve talked in the past few years:

✨ Shadowloss ✨and ✨ Dialectics ✨

Shadowloss is a term from Cole It describes the loss of someTHING in life, not someONE. And just like with deathloss, grief can follow both.

The problem is, we don’t always feel like we’re allowed to say we’re grieving unless someone has died. But grief shows up in all kinds of moments, and most of us are carrying more than we think we’re allowed to talk about.

The birth you didn’t have.
The friendship that ended.
The time you never got.
The time you spent self-abandoning.

Enter in: Dialectics- it is the idea that two opposite things can be true at once.

You can feel grateful and overwhelmed.
You can love your new baby and miss your old life.
You can trust your choice and still grieve what never happened.

These two ideas come up constantly in my work because they show up constantly in real life. I see them in postpartum, in illness, in healing, in transition, and any season where your body or spirit is trying to catch up with your reality.

This is one of the reasons I do the work I do, and the big driver behind really leaning in to postpartum care. To create space for the unnamed stuff. The in-between. The things that don’t have neat categories.

This kind of grief is real.It’s not always loud, but it’s sitting quietly in the background of everything. If it feels heavier lately… it’s not just you. If any of this resonates… let me know!

🌿 Embodied Perinatal Care & Beyond

A new chapter of care that honors the nervous system, the subconscious, and the shifting seasons of the soul.

My own journey into motherhood came with both grief and joy , the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, deeply needed yet unseen. My births and post partum experiences are still hard to look back on.

Becoming a doula was what unlocked this work.
It’s rooted in my lived experience, education, and the desire to offer others what I once needed. slow, intentional care that makes space for both the chaos and the calm.

✨ Integrative pre/postnatal bodywork & energy work: to help you feel safe in your body again.
✨ Hypnosis & subconscious support | to rebuild calm and confidence from within.
✨ Ritual & reflection | For processing birth, identity shifts, and grief.

It’s care for every threshold. from anticipation to healing, from grief to renewal.

With an almost 4 year old, I’m used to being some level of tired, but fine powering through.

But this place I’ve arrived at with an almost 4 year old and a 9 month old Shakespearean cherub? Tis next-level. My little guy never hesitates to express himself with ferocity of a 1000 burning suns. Like I have personally wronged him by existing 3 feet away instead of 2. I call him my Shakespearean prince.
Because every cry sounds like he’s mourning a betrayal that can never be undone.

And for this past week, I remain completely at the mercy of this tiny thespian who has decided that sleep is for peasants
and that Mother shall not know rest.

And every night, he delivers some sort of Spider-Man reenactment in his sleep. Sir, sleep crawls and climbs 🫠Tis truly a performance worthy of a Tony… or at least a standing ovation from sleep-deprived moms everywhere.

To all my fellow mamas currently deep in the midnight chaos,
sending love, solidarity, and duct tape.
(Not for the baby…. my eyelids. 🫠)

Side note: look at those little cheekies!

🍁 Syncing with the Season: Fall Journey
This fall-centered session is designed to help you shed what no longer serves and step into the slower, more grounded rhythm of autumn. Start with decompression in the drift room, followed by intuitive bodywork and subconscious journey that honors and aligns you with the seasonal shift.

This special offering introduces you to our space and seasonal flow with a sample of bodywork, Drift Room time, and space to land gently. This is my new approach going forward. This open to both new and past clients!

🍂 The Fall is almost upon us, and with it will mark the official beginning of the next phase of NEHA. Letting the old fall away and make space for what’s real.

This season I am not pushing. I am not hustling. I am not chasing someone else’s version of success. I am aligning with my own rhythm. I am trusting the slow build. I am letting the work speak for itself.

Everything I am launching now is rooted in years of listening and learning… often the hard way 🫠Years of showing up for others while quietly showing up for myself too.

There were so many moments I thought I had to start over.
But really, I was just starting again. From a deeper place each time. Rebuilding from a place of wisdom. Even though I am still putting out a few fires on some of my tail feathers, definitely my phoenix rising from the ashes era😂

If my younger self could see this now, she might be amazed.
But, I know she always believed in this because how would I have gotten here? She didnt have the full picture.
But she knew we were building something beautiful.

And now, here we are. Fall begins. And so does something new✨

Going forward, This is where everyone starts. It’s a full-body listening session designed to give us both the clearest picture of what’s going on. I’ve offered it at a gentle discount because trying a something new feel like a little bit of a gamble.

✨But first… you Drift….

Before we begin, you get time in the Drift Room. A space to decompress, with calming light, warmth, and tranquil visuals. It’s the perfect place to shake off the traffic, the chaos, the kid drop-off meltdown, or the fact that you forgot your water bottle for the third day in a row. Think of it like a warm-up for your nervous system.
✨ Then, the table work begins.
This isn’t a quick fix or a “tell me where it hurts and I’ll dig in” kind of thing. If bone crush pressure is what you seek, you won’t find that here. I use this time to get a full read on your body’s story… energy, posture, breath, tension patterns, the whole picture.

I have lots of tools (gua sha, myofascial cupping, heated bamboo, infrared therapy), but I save those for future sessions. Why? Because I want you to actually feel how I work and experience the core of what I do. It’s worth noting, for future sessions, it’s all inclusive pricing no additional charge for any of the above.

🌙 Afterward, Drift again ☀️

Most people leave my table like they just took a trip to space and back. So instead of tossing you right back into real life, you get a few minutes to recalibrate. There’s a drink, a little snack, and total silence if that’s what you need. No rush to find your keys or remember how to human 😉
When you’re ready, we’ll chat. I’ll share what I noticed and we’ll talk about what makes the most sense for your care going forward. you don’t have to guess. You get to feel it for yourself ✨

free or pay what you can on select dates in September! See previous post for more details!

I’m launching a new series of services focused on supporting the nervous system, gently working with the subconscious, and syncing with nature’s rhythm. Some new bodywork/energy work and some that are self guided journeys.

For the entire month of September, these new sessions are completely free! The caveat- it is in exchange for your honest feedback, there will be post session forms to fill out! This is a soft launch, a chance to refine, recalibrate, and reconnect.

If you are able to contribute financially, every dollar will go directly toward the legal and licensing costs to help get The Empowered Wellness Project (a future nonprofit) off the ground. No amount is too small. But TRULY, your presence and insights are the greatest gift!

I will be posting more in depth descriptions soon and posting open dates, however you do not have to wait! DM or email me hello@newenglandmassageandhealingarts.com for more info or available dates!
