The perinatal and postnatal periods have the potential to run deep and wild: from feeling lush and remembering a long-forgotten language to processing ambivalence and wavering in the overwhelm of new sensations and information. It can feel universal + interwoven, and at the same time, entirely internal + individual.
Together we’ll make space for the both/and nature of this experience.

60-Minute Abhyanga Treatment
Find your quiet. Light-touch, warm-oil, restorative body work. Slow, subtle movement to calm the nervous system, open lymphatic pathways, and hydrate inside + out.
Treatment is open to all bodies, with the exception of those currently pregnant. If you’re expecting, I’m happy to connect you with terrific prenatal practitioners. These sessions are especially supportive in early postpartum, and just as beautiful for any human moving through life.
Highland Park studio treatments are currently offered at community rates.
*BYOB: bring your own baby—if you don’t have coverage for your infant (0-12 months) or separation feels like too much, this space makes room for that. Book around a nap window—your little can snooze nearby in your stroller or our infant lounger or bassinet (for pre-rollers). If they wake, we adjust and flow.
