Office Roommate wanted!

As we change seasons I will be changing my office in October.

Because I do not occupy the space full time I am looking for a person to share a second floor 16x12 office in Cascade area with windows that open, a view of trees as well as use of common waiting room and kitchenette.
Ideal for bodyworker or somatic practioner but open to discussing with those who practice other modalities.

Please contact me for pricing, schedule and location pictures.

It is officially soup weather!

Soups are a great way to pack in a variety of nutrients in one bowl.
If you want to do a non plant based recipe you can add extra nutrients by using bone broth for part of the liquid.

A bowl of comfort you’ll want to make again and again 🌿✨ This turmeric lentil soup is warm, nourishing, and packed with goodness. Made with lentils, spinach, and potatoes, it’s high in fiber, naturally low in fat, and full of cozy flavor. Perfect for a healthy weeknight dinner or meal prep!...

Ever heard a practitioner say your SI joint is unstable?

Here is a brief but well done overview about SI joint pain and what you might try to resolve it.

It is never an isolated situation as the load, stability and resiliency throughout our structures are related.

Everything moves together.

SI Joint: “The Sacroiliac Joint connects the spine to the pelvis. Pain can occur when the joint becomes inflamed, stiff, unstable, or overloaded.

Common causes of SI joint pain include:

Poor posture or pelvic misalignment
Uneven weight distribution stresses the joint.
Pregnancy
Hormonal changes and ligament laxity increase joint mobility.
Trauma or falls
Sudden impact on the hips, buttocks, or lower back.
Disc problems or lumbar spine issues
Conditions like disc bulge can alter movement mechanics and overload the SI joint.
Leg length difference
Causes uneven pelvic loading.
Arthritis
Especially osteoarthritis or inflammatory conditions like ankylosing spondylitis.
Muscle imbalance or weakness
Weak core, glutes, or tight hip muscles reduce pelvic stability.
Prolonged sitting or standing
Repetitive stress irritates the joint.
Heavy lifting or twisting movements
Common in gym injuries or manual work.
Post-surgical changes
Sometimes after spinal fusion surgery.

Typical symptoms:

Pain near one side of lower back or buttock
Pain while standing from sitting
Pain during stair climbing, walking, or turning in bed
Pain radiating to thigh or groin

Management may include physiotherapy, pelvic stabilization exercises, posture correction, manual therapy, activity modification, and sometimes injections depending on severity.”

Ready to shed your compensation patterns so you can enjoy your favorite exercise or sport?

Weekend activity asks a lot from your body. Running, lifting, golfing, cycling, pickup games. Then back to a desk, a car, or long stretches of sitting.

Over time, those shifts can create patterns of tension, compensation, and imbalance that affect how you move and recover. For weekend athletes, that can mean:

🏌️‍♀️ More efficient movement
🚴🏾‍♀️ Less strain on joints and overworked muscles
🏃🏼‍♂️ Improved recovery between activities
🧘🏽‍♀️ A body that feels more coordinated and supported in motion

Hey Rolfing®️clients….can you weigh in on what you have noticed after some of your fascial compensation patterns have shifted to give you more efficient movement and ease from tension?

Using focused, hands-on work with the fascia, Certified Rolfers® help the body reorganize in gravity so movement becomes more efficient and strain is reduced.

What have you noticed in your own body when things start to feel more aligned?

Resilient structures support resilient movement.

If you are ready to explore a healthier more resilient connection with your body as you move through life I have availability in June for 2 new clients.
Let’s see what is possible with some Rolfing®️sessions.
