When we rest deeply in capable hands, muscle and connective tissues become receptive, more easily able to release to optimal length, and healing begins. As a culture we are swamped with stimuli, over-scheduled, and longing for rest and connection. Experiencing structural integration or massage therapy can reset the body's tension level, bringing us into the relief of equilibrium.
Individual sessions, a 3-session series 'tuneup', and a complete 12-session structural integration series are available, utilizing the pioneering technique of Tom Myers, author of 'Anatomy Trains' and founder of Anatomy Trains Structural Integration (ATSI) which is based on the work of Ida Rolf and updated with the new science of connective tissue pliability and less discomfort than in earlier iterations.
I am so enthused about this style of yoga since doing a deep and immersive 2019 training. In Yin Yoga study and practice, poses are held for two to ten minutes, resulting in increased range of motion while tapping into the benefits of the parasympathetic nervous system. Talk to me about how this slow and targeted practice can respectfully bring your body into balance.
The human body is Susan's life work and Embodi is her signature style of integrating a lifetime of living and learning into therapeutic practice. Working as a massage therapist since 1981, she is known for her compassionate, thoughtful, and comfortable style of facilitating change with clients and students, emphasizing techniques that encourage lasting results and awareness.
If you want a massage, look in the Yellow Pages. If you want a professional in every sense of the word, call Susan. Susan's knowledge and talent as a massage therapist are only surpassed by her consistent focus on what will best serve her client on that day and in that session. Susan does so much more than provide a therapeutic massage.

Susan as a true healer. I have known her for over 20 years. I have taken several of her class series for ballignment and personal growth, as well as receiving body work therapy from her. She has also offered her assistance in helping me find appropriate and compassionate body work therapists for my young children as things have come up throughout the years. Susan approaches everything that she does thoughtfully and with kindness and compassion for those she's working with. She is an amazingly skilled healer and has always been resourceful in her quest for health and wellness for her clients. I

Susan's touch comes from knowing, not from assuming, not from judging. She listens on a deep level!

Susan is a remarkable person gifted in many areas. Her work using Structural Integration on me had a profound and healing effect. I expected a positive physical experience, but the extent of psychological and spiritual influence was a welcome surprise.
