About Emily
I began practicing Craniosacral therapy in 2001 following formal training from the Upledger Institute and mentoring under a master Craniosacral therapist. Additional training included Craniosacral therapy for Pediatrics, SomatoEmotional Release through the Upledger Institute, the physiologic sciences program at the Chicago National College of Naprapathy, anatomy through Rush Medical School, Reiki I and II and I am a Teaching Assistant for the Upledger Institute for Craniosacral therapy.
By integrating these well-rounded manners of schooling, formal and non-formal, I effectively and gently work on the entire body. I work have worked with all age groups (2 weeks - 89 years so far), on a wide range of issues that are physical, emotional, mental or spiritual in nature. Because of my non-formal training, I have learned many techniques that are not taught in books and I am always striving to enhance my skill and practice.
My philosophy in healing is to work with the rhythms and tides of your body, following the cues I receive by your verbal communication, and with your body?s healing wisdom to awaken your healing process naturally and gently. There are no hard adjustments, and no soreness following sessions.
I have successfully worked with the following issues:
- chronic migraines/headaches
- fibromyalgia
- body pain (muscular and/or joint pain - head to toe)
- TMJ pain
- body pain from pregnancy
- stress/tension issues
- depression
- phantom limb pain
- insomnia
- vertigo
- some forms of hormone imbalances
- trauma (new and residual) that is physical, emotional and/or mental in nature.
I have experience working with women during pregnancy to alleviate the enormous stress placed on the body at this beautiful stage in life, and following birth to shorten recovery time.
I am in love with my Work. It is my greatest joy to walk with someone on his or her healing path with the goal being improved quality of life, and manifesting optimal wellness. I welcome your questions about this work that I love so much and look forward to connecting with you on your healing path.
I have a few locations in which to see clients.
The beautiful healing studios at YogaNow Gold Coast.
And my home office at
5602 N. Ridge Ave in Edgewater, Chicago
