about amy!
For 25 years I have been helping people put their best foot forward.
What I do is reduce tension, align muscles, bones, ligaments, and reintroduce movement into your feet. Reflexology is a scientific art based on the premise that there are zones and reflex points in the feet which correspond to all body parts.
To me, the power of reflexology is that it works on a structural level to help open and relax the feet so you want to move more. This grounding and movement helps the body circulate nutrients and remove waste, making your body work better and you feel better. Reflexology provides layers of deep, deep relaxation and a recalibration of the nervous system making your mind clearer and your body more rested.
Utilizing 25 years of knowledge and training in reflexology and massage, I will work with you to gain back movement and momentum. Please know it took time for your feet to get out of sorts, and it will take time to get them back into alignment. Most clients report a pain reduction of 50-90% in the first session.
Who am I?
healer, idea generator, artist, terrible craft maker, wanderer of places and spaces, frequent user of the library, mystic, cat mom, and one of those people who dances in the street or when served food at a restaurant.
For 25 years I have studied everything I can about the body, foot pain, reflexology and the facial system. I try to use all of that collective knowledge in my sessions with clients. I often don’t share my thoughts as they lie in that non-verbal place while I work but I love it when people ask.
I am a breast cancer survivor and a person who desires to wander the world in search of the most delectable baked good and cup of coffee, a body of water to sit by or frolic in, and a sky of stars to gaze at.
What I Believe:
1. Feet are important. Make sure yours are in good shape so they will carry you far and on many adventures. There is nothing better than long walks in nature and if your feet hurt its impossible to wander.
2. Finding your creative self makes living in a complex world better. Paint and art, especially no-good-very-bad art can be an amazing way to access your deepest self, your longings, and most importantly creation can teach you that failure is possibly the only way to success.
3. The world is fucking amazing. I see it as part of my job to point out some of this amzingness in the hope that you will also point me to the amazing in your world. This can be food, places, spaces and things.
4. Somewhere in the act of growing up we forgot about magic, faeries, and being alive and deeply connected to the natural world. Houses are great but a sky full of stars pulls deep at your cellular wisdom and body. I want to share enchantment and connection with you.
5. Cats are everything. My greatest teachers are my cats, they remind me to bathe daily, take naps and stretch often. I cannot help it I will often share stories of my obsession with my feline friends. To date I have hosted over 56 foster cats and kittens helping them grow big and strong and find their fur-ever homes. As you will note below, my instagram feed is 75% cats, 15% food and garden and the rest might say something about my work. Or it might be more cats.
