Our Healing Arts Sessions are an eclectic mix and outside the mainstream of common modalities. This reflects both the practitioner’s adaptive interaction with health and healing and to the Studio’s as well. You can request a modality of your choice or leave it up to the practitioner to decide based upon your body’s need at the time. Many of our sessions are informative as well as provide home and self-practice exercises.
