The longer I dedicate myself to the art of healing, the softer I become.  My hands, my words, the herbs I work with – all are softer.

In medical school, I was trained in osseous manipulation (cracking backs), but due to my arthritis this was never accessible.  I thought I would remain in the realm of biochemistry, diagnostic testing, and juggling complex medical cases – primary care.

Then three years in, reality hit.

I live with a chronic pain condition. It is magnified by stress and demands a level of self care previously unknown to me.  Even the act of receiving a massage or chiropractic adjustment could put me in bed for days.  I began to question whether I would be able to continue being a doctor or even work as the pain and fatigue were so severe.  Then, I found Craniosacral Therapy.
