Your Body Is Capable Of More Healing and Vibrancy Than You’ve Ever Been Led To Believe.
All new clients must be referred by current clients and professional partners/colleagues.
Thank you for understanding.
Because every body is different and the formula for health is unique and different for each person, I offer tailored wellness services for the Body, Mind and Spirit. Having worked in the helping, healing and holistic health arena for over 20 years, I can honestly say I’ve never seen anything that works for everyone or any approach that applies to every-body. We are all so unique in our biology, physiology, experiences, genetics, habits, lifestyles, beliefs and movements that we simply must treat each person as uniquely as we truly are.
Body work and massage sessions are customized to suit each clients needs, on the day they need it. I utilize a combination of techniques from Thai, Ashiatsu, Swedish (Relaxation), Reiki/Energy, Aromatherapy, Breathwork, Acupressure/ Trigger Point, Cupping, Herbal Compress and Myofacial Release bodywork to meet the goals and comfort level of each person.
As a holistic focused practitioner, I work with people to facilitate balance, harmony and re-establish a healthy homeostasis in the body. A huge component to achieve those goals is regular support and activation of the parasympathetic nervous system— the rest and restore system of the body. Our modern society has trained our sympathetic (fight or flight) system to be turned on in ways our bodies were never designed to sustain and as you may see around you in friends, family, co-workers or yourself… a chronic sympathetic state leads to dis-ease in the body, mind and our lives.
Thankfully, some simple lifestyle changes, regular bodywork, body awareness and acupressure has been shown to provide greater states of rest, restore and repair in the body which leads to:
Increased Cellular Healing
Decreased Pain
Healthier Tissue and Muscle Tone
Improved Sleep
Elevated Mood & Increased Relaxation
Improved Immune Function
Increased Mobility
Increased Sense of Well-being
Increased Organ Function
Increased Hamony Among All Systems In The Body
My Why
Like most people that work in the health and healing field, we are here because our personal journey and struggle brought us here to share what we have learned and are still learning. My mental health, physical health, relationships, job and creativity all became brightly amplified when I decided to get in the drivers seat and make my health a priority.
Work With Me
I have been where you are and let’s be honest, somedays I still am. Life is busy, stressful and overwhelming already and when you’re not feeling good in your body, knowing which way to go can feel outright impossible. I have found that people are the most successful in their health goals when they have a team, support, a cheerleader and some guidance. I try to be for others, who I needed when I started my health journey.
Massage & Bodywork
If you don’t take care of your body, where else will you live? A chronic state of stress in the body leads to dis-ease in our body and lives. Massage is such a great way to stimulate the restore and heal system of the body while breaking up some every day aches, pains and stagnation.
Holistic Health
Food and lifestyles are not just calories and habits … they are messengers to your DNA to inform it how to behave…or, misbehave. We will look to food as fuel to heal and communicate with the body at a cellular level and we will build strong lifestyle habits to promote energy, good sleep, balanced hormones, a healthy weight, mindset and relationship with food.
The Office
My office is located at The Memphis Wellness Collective. A shared space of independent holistic health practioners that offer whole body wellness, relaxation and conscious care.
We work with and provide products that protect and respect your health, the planet and the animals we share it with.
“I’ve seen Michelle’s health coaching in action with my patients and I’ve now had the privilege of experiencing her massage therapy skills personally. She’s amazing at both! She helped this poor mama remember what relaxation actually is 😂. Her positivity and intuitiveness are infectious. I can’t wait until my next appointment! 💆🏻♀️”
“Michelle is an incredibly intuitive and compassionate holistic practitioner. She knows her stuff and provides great support for mind body and spirit wellness. I’ve had several massages from Michelle and every time I feel wonderful. Thank you so much for all you offer!”
“I got to know Michelle as a health coach for my daughter and I. She is kind, compassionate and encouraging. I appreciate her so much as she does not look at one piece of your life but as a whole, emotionally and physically. I recently went to see her for a massage and she addressed my concerns with great care and compassion. She even went out of her way to send me resources to aid in my healing journey. It is evident that she has a great deal of passion for her work and her clients. I highly recommend!”
“I have been seeing Michelle for about a year now for different issues. One thing I love is she doesn’t take a one size fits all approach to the body. When I had shoulder, legs and neck issues, she used different techniques depending on my problem and she really listened to me! With her background in nutrition and holistic healing she offers a complete understanding of what will help me feel my best!
Her energy is infections and her office is so chic, warm and inviting! I’m so happy to have found her!”
“If you’re looking for a person who cares as much about your wellness as their own, Michelle is your inspiration. I have never met a more genuine person and her only goal is to help you find the best balance for your mental, social and nutritional health.
”
“Michelle is passionate about each person’s health - she loves to equip people to find what is best for their unique bodies, minds, and spirits. She is kind, funny, and an ever-curious lifelong learner. She’s a joy to work with!”
“ I love Michelle!! She’s so fun to work with and is a wealth of knowledge. She’s practical and open minded, and will work with you to find the best lifestyle choices for your unique self.”
“If you are looking for a massage therapist who is intuitive, professional, talented and a natural healer, look no further. Michelle’s calming and nurturing presence plus her attention to detail creates such a soothing experience. I was so calm and relaxed during my last massage with her that I actually fell asleep! As a person who experiences high levels of stress and difficulty sleeping, I highly recommend seeing Michelle for massage therapy. I am sleeping better and feeling more calm and well overall.”
