May is ❤️
I shared with a new patient today that I treat EDS and related conditions not just because there is a need for it, but because both my husband and I have hypermobile EDS (and a number of co-occurring conditions).

There was a time when every day was a struggle and I legitimately thought I wouldn’t live to see my 30th birthday. I am so grateful that the days of wondering if we were going to make it are behind us. Both of us have been bed-bound and unable to work because of this illness. We are MUCH better today than we ever thought possible.

Since that VERY tough chapter in our lives, we have both earned our doctorates and started to work part time again. I am beyond proud of us and grateful every day that I can use the knowledge I gained in the pursuit of our health to now help other people.

We definitely need more Fascial Counterstrain practitioners! But if you can’t find someone near you, Craniosacral is one of my faves, I’ve seen Barral work wonders, and I also think a great lymphatic massage practitioner can be a godsend for our bendy bodies. The Perrin Technique is also becoming increasingly interesting to me!

Have you tried another type of body work/ manual therapy that you love?

It's the last day of , and while this should be a celebration, it's a sad week for LGBTQIA+ folks as our supreme court has effectively legalized discrimination against us.

It is honestly quite depressing, since we already face discrimination in so many ways.

I believe that we all have some amount of power, whether in our social spheres, our professions, or our communities.

Because should be something we celebrate all year, and because we need to help lift each other up in the hard times, I'm happy to share that I will be offering reduced rates/sliding scale prices for patients who are LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC.

Everyone deserves access to quality healthcare, and while this is a drop in the bucket with regard to addressing the equity gaps in many of the systemic injustices in our country, I believe every little bit counts.
