About Michael Emanuel, LMT"Each person is on their own healing journey. Rather than "fixing" people, I support your work towards health either physically, or energetically. Through the process of holding, unwinding, applying various therapeutic techniques, I join the person in discovering opportunities for unwinding and transformation."

About Heather Emanuel, GCFP, LMT"Our bodies are always organizing towards health, the best they can. My work is to help people to access this innate healing and learning capacity, using effective, pain-free, hands-on methods. No matter what we are facing, whether chronic illness, pain, degenerative disease, the natural aging process, we are all able to improve, and to change how we engage with our difficulties. This improvement is what I call healing. Different from returning to a former state of being (that may or may not have been ideal) this is moving forward with new knowledge and wisdom gained from injury, experience, and maturity."
Heather offers a (frequently new) paradigm for understanding our patterns of movement and discomfort. Her listening hands ask questions about the way we organize our movement and offer us new options for moving and for thinking about movement, and new choices for addressing pain. In addition, Heather offers Awareness Through Movement® Classes (Feldenkrais Method). She also teaches Restorative Yoga and trains teachers in that practice, as well as assists with training new Feldenkrais Practitioners.
