Video 1 - Intro & the basics of Polarity Therapy
This is the first video from my YouTube channel - a simple introduction of who I am & what I do, touching quickly on the high-level basics of Polarity Therapy in regard to electricity, opposing polarities, and the body. Much of polarity & craniosacral unwinding inter-mix in my personal practice, but this hits more so on the negative, neutral, and positive poles.
Video 2 - What to expect in sessions 1-3
In this video, I explain why a 3-5 session package is necessary for new clients because this is an investment and long-term relationship. While you may see me frequently for a short period of time, it is intense at the on-set, and then you come back on an as-needed basis quarterly/biannually/annually afterward to maintain or choose a monthly package to stay ahead of your healing.

About Me
I gave massages at family events or to friends during school events ever since I could remember. Athletic training was fun in high school but while I couldn't pay attention to my schoolwork, I'd spend hours reading books and drinking Starbucks in Barnes & Noble deciding which books to part with and how many I could add to my collection.
In my Army days, I met "my Anne..." who attuned me and others to Reiki on a beautiful lake retreat. After some adventures, I came back home and attended the Clinical Massage Therapy school and got a great therapeutic background. It was a solid experience, a great base, but I saw the "formalness" of the process take the "healer" out of so many students, the "politics" of it really started to bother me. I was drawn into a totally different career path in records & information management, where I enjoyed all that that career path had to offer me at the time. I still dabble in this from time-to-time but not much.
​My life was changing again, and I found my way back to bodywork... I found this great school called the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts where I studied advanced techniques, specializing in Craniosacral Unwinding, Polarity Therapy, and Thai Massage.
I took a sabbatical, travelled the US for a short time, did an internship at Arcosanti, an incredible volunteer-built city in North Phoenix where you can learn about architecture and dabble in communal living. I travelled to Hawaii for 6 weeks, learning to charm bees without protective gear thanks to Shane Lee and becoming a level 2 beach bum on the beaches of Kauai.
​I came back home and opened a beautiful Holistic Pain Management Studio called Unwind - Body & Mind where we held classes and had a collective space for holistic bodyworkers. It was an amazing journey.
I took another sabbatical to become a LEVEL 3 BEACH BUM, again, on the beautiful island of Kauai. I really did nothing for society or the human race, but I acquired additional experiences - a whole other lifetime of them..., while I unapologetically let myself rest and rejuvenate for almost a year. Highly suggested.
When COVID locked down the world... while others were forced into seclusion, the Pacific Ocean became my refuge - and my back yard. An eclectic band of brothers formed on the beach of Salt Ponds in Eleele, the only free humans, as we discussed the calamity of the outside world and the odd coincidences we noticed. I was so lucky to have experienced all that I did and all the Aloha they shared with me.
I am now back in Northwest Indiana - I see new clients at the Evexia Salt Cave and established in either Chesterton or Hobart. The bees have come back to me, so stay tuned for great things to come regarding the Bee Multiplication Project.
Welcome!... I hope you join in the fun!
