Some time later, you emerge with something incredible. At Awen Bodywork, the body is my media and massage, the art form. I believe that it is the collaborative relationship between client and practitioner that produces lasting results; that the body has an innate ability to heal itself, the therapist is simply a pillar of support and facilitator of that process.
So much is to be gleaned from this work, the wisdom to be found is never-ending. I spent my childhood wandering the dense woods and scouring the rocky beaches of the San Juan Islands. I decided to pursue a career in herbal medicine and bodywork after experiencing first-hand the power that they hold.
Holistic therapeutic massage considers the 'whole' being of the client - emotional, spiritual and mental aspects as well as physical ailments and medical background - to tailor each massage to provide the most effective treatment during sessions. A holistic approach assesses body and mind - areas of tension, emotional stress, sleep patterns, and other areas thereby considering the entire person and all factors unique to each individual.
With her intuition and intention, her work has a depth that is truly healing. My overall experience was absolutely phenomenal. I'll be back at least once a month. My body feels like I am a new woman. Natalie is definitely someone I will be continuing to see for massage, no doubt about it. She is genuine, receptive, caring and professional. Her touch is nurturing and knowledgeable, making each bodywork session a healing opportunity. My body has not been this relaxed in what feels like a lifetime.
She's informative and incorporates different techniques as needed. Afterwards I felt like a new human. Dedicated to providing a safe, serene refuge for your body to unfold and be heard.
