About me
Welcome I’m Isha!
My interests are plenty. I’ve never fallen neatly into a box so I decided to create my own thing.
Now, I serve and help misfits like myself reconnect with their bodies. Whether through injury, life events, or a desire to go deeper with oneself, this is where my magic lies.
I believe that true wellness comes from nurturing both the body and soul and I’m dedicated to creating a compassionate empowering space for you to explore and thrive.
Treatment Philosophy
I believe that it is not possible to separate the body from the mind. In yogic philosophies,there are actually 5 “bodies” known as Koshas.
As such, when working to heal, change or facilitate change within our “physical body,” we must understand the intricacies of how all things affect all things. The body creates responses and symptoms based on it’s nervous system response (perhaps the most clear representation of the mind-body) so our work together in all aspects is about soothing and empowering the nervous system.
In many cases, the body has the capacity to heal itself, what is necessary are the right conditions. I invite you to consider thinking of yourself as a beautiful garden rather than a machine full of parts. My job is to figure out which plants might be helpful, where and how to plant them, and how to best to take care of them. By tending to the conditions around you, you will bloom the most beautiful flowers.
