My Path to Parasympathetic-Focused Care
My journey began with a strong foundation in the mechanics of motion, which taught me how the body moves. I deepened this understanding while studying chiropractic.
I quickly realized that while structure is important, the system governing it is crucial. I saw countless patients—especially women—whose tension and pain persisted because their nervous systems were locked in "fight or flight." So, I set out to create a place where patients feel truly supported and understood.
This led me to specialize in a trio of critical, gentle, and highly effective disciplines:
-
SOT® (Sacro-Occipital Technique): Focused on restoring foundational stability, particularly the pelvis and spine.
-
Certified Pelvic Exercise Specialist: Integrating core and pelvic function to ensure structural stability is supported by movement and strength.
-
SOT® Cranial and TMJ: Using the lightest touch to balance the craniosacral system, directly regulating the nervous system.
I am currently the only Certified Cranial Specialist in El Dorado County, reflecting my commitment to the deepest level of training in neuro-structural and dural system regulation.This advanced training allows me to create a profound shift, helping your body release the physical patterns that hold onto stress and past emotional overwhelm.
More Than An Adjustment: My Healing Philosophy
My practice is an expression of my belief that holistic health requires connection. This is why our sessions always include breath work and somatic coaching alongside precise structural correction. Our Mission at Pacific Spine and Structure is: To empower women to transition from chronic stress to deep, sustainable healing by gently restoring spinal and cranial integrity, regulating the nervous system, and cultivating an environment where the body naturally learns to Rest, Heal, and Feel Safe Again.
