Healing Tree Myofascial Therapy

Tongue pull next visit anyone?

From birth, your tongue is connected to your toes through an intricate network of fascia. If your tongue is not resting correctly in your mouth, things can get out of alignment in your mouth and the rest of your body.

Tongue posture can lead to a foot imbalance and vice versa because the tongue guides all myofascial continuity structures that run from the inner arch of the foot up through the middle of the body to the tongue and jaw muscles.

When the tongue sits on top of the palate, it seals the oral cavity and holds the throat open like a tent. These muscles support the neck, keep your posture straight, help you breathe, and maintain your posture upright.

Your tongue also acts as a rudder and support system through a fascial line, and when the tongue is down, we breathe through our mouth, and the head falls forward due to lack of support, which leads to poor posture and increased energy expenditure.

Last week I had the opportunity to complete my Shared Journey Fertility Certification w/ Dr, Jennifer Mercier🥰.
It is a great compliment to John F. Barnes Myofascial Therapy. It just dives deeper into what we can do in woman's health.

This is a soft tissue visceral manipulation technique that takes place outside the the body to ensure the pelvic organs are on optimal position. It restores mobility and blood flow to carry nutrition to the pelvic floor.

This approach is a naturopathic approach to pelvic floor pain, PCOS, endometriosis, infertility, IVF as well as an alternative to IVF, painful periods, hyper/hypo thyroid, low estradiol, scar tissue, perimenopause, menopause and more...

Healing Tree is excited to now offer Mercier Therapy and I am looking forward to the fellowship program in the very near future!!

We have new dates for Bella's Energy Alchemy classes for the new year!

Alchemy is the ancient art of turning base metals into gold. Applied to the body, it’s the art of catalyzing stuck energy into flow & finding the gold beneath the layers of emotional dross, negative thoughts patterns & physical pain.
In this class we will be exploring different ways of moving energy to create a felt sense of freedom & flow in the body, including:
🌹embodiment practices
🌹movement
🌹dance
🌹Breathwork
🌹Healing touch
🌹Vocal exercises
🌹contemplation
🌹Guided journeying
🌹Acting & archetype work
🌹Community connection
🌹Heart shares
& more!!
No two classes will be the same as we’ll flow with what’s alive in each session.
You’ll get to explore bringing your consciousness more deeply into your body, leaning into the places you avoid to alchemize constriction into openness, struggle into love.
Dress comfortably. Bring an open mind and a willingness to explore what’s alive within you.
