 There is so much that we can easily do to help heal and care for ourselves! These consults developed out of a strong interest I have in education and self-empowerment, out of my own personal practices and research, as well as in response to client's inquiries over these many years. 'Self Care Consults' are tailor made educational sessions intended to teach you holistic practices to support your health. Drawing on traditions of Asian medicine, Western herbs, whole foods nutrition and traditional Asian food therapies, these consults are designed to your specific energetic pattern and personal inspirations for self healing. For example, perhaps you would love to know some simple self-shiatsu techniques for treating your headaches at home; or perhaps education on traditional dietary approaches, specific to your condition, would be just the thing; or, maybe you'd be interested in learning some simple qi gong and energy building exercises.

Consult may include any single focus or combination relating to:
  • Personalized dietary guidelines
  • Self-shiatsu and acupressure
  • Simple herbal teas, tinctures or use of herbs in diet
  • Healing compresses and/or liniments
  • Simple qi gong exercises
  • Other specific home remedies and practices such as therapeutic baths or steams, breathing exercises and lifestyle adjustments
Simply let me know what you want to learn about, within the above options. I then design a self care consult, based on your interests. I can also make recommendations on what might be helpful. The length and depth of these consults are your choice. They can be short and sweet, with just enough to get you going -- or a fuller, more in-depth session for longer term use and reference. Consults session also include a take home reference guide with all materials and instruction from our meeting.
