Well Woman Care

IN REVERENCE OF + IN SERVICE TO

the entire experience of woman

hands on care to realign, support and embody your innate intelligence.

informed by physiology + ancestral healing practices; together may we improve structural patterns, release adhesion, invigorate circulation + lymphatic flow, enliven nerve function, and support deep cellular nourishment + organ wellness.

our bodies are altars of creation, living prayers made manifest

Inspired by the magnificence of our primal bodies and the great healings I have received from bodywork and nutrition, I have dedicated my life’s work into reciprocating these gifts.

This work is about devotion, calling forth the innate intelligence that lives within your flesh + blood. Immersing into the depths of embodiment that is well beyond the surface of woman, so that your body, your home, your nervous system and womb be strong +supple. Resilient. Able to adapt like the evolutionary miracle that you are.

In my practice, weaving into hands on bodywork, we hold council; cultivating a relational ceremony, intentionally listening + responding to the information that your body speaks.

As a Women’s health practitioner, I offer collaborative healing of living + birthing in ceremony. With an education in Integrative Bodywork, Organ + Pelvic Specific Therapy, Holistic Women’s Healthcare, Full Spectrum Birth + Postpartum Work, Somatic Sex Education and Scar Tissue Release; I weave in Physiologic Nutrition to support our work.

My intention in bodywork is for people to restore, as much as possible, their original physiological design. With this intention, I understand that my bodywork + mentorship will only go so far if the nutritional support is not there to inform and hold those changes. With this understanding, I integrate physiologic nutrition to support our work. With this, I wholeheartedly believe that honoring bodywork + nutrition as the dyad that they are, we create the potential for true, embodied change.

  • In our work together I am weaving the intricacies of your whole body, while the focus of our work will mostly be in the center of you; tending to your belly + womb.

    With that said, there are several arches + diaphragms in your body, mirroring one another. With this understanding, I witness your structure and provide resources + attune our session to support the resiliency of these connections.

    Beyond your structural reading, we tune into your tissues. Warming + opening your fascial network, we make contact with your body. Creating space for your body to re-organize. Working with the receptivity of your body, we explore deeper, working specifically with your organs. Melting adhesions, moving congestion, invigorating the five channels of flow, and guiding organs into alignment in support of your bodies brilliant design for wellness.

    Each session will have its own alchemy based on what your structure + story express.

    If you have curiosities or concerns about your breast health, we may incorporate a breast check + care into your belly + womb session.

  • While I offer hands on care akin to massage, I feel it is important to make the distinction that this is not your typical massage.

    This distinction is made clear so not to be interpreted as a typical passive massage/spa experience. This body of work requires your presence and engagement, creating the potential for true embodied change. In our session we are in council; intentionally listening + responding to the information your body has to speak.

  • Most all bodies in this day and age have inflammation and adhesion, which is not always comfortable to soften and open. It should not be painful. We always work with the receptivity of your body as we stretch, open, release and engage your tissues.

    It is important to understand that pain + pleasure (“health”) exist in a dyad.

    Sometimes, in order to embody the other side of our pleasure, our health, we must be willing to traverse through our pain. But we never force the body, we always, always work within your bodies receptivity to explore + move through any discomfort.

  • It will inhibit the work we can to do together.

    Womb and Uterine work can manipulate the placement of your IUD and render it ineffective or damage your tissues from the IUD perforating into your Uterus.

    We can still tend to your wellness in a myriad of other ways, through digestive belly work, fascial pelvic work, breast health, ect.

    Do take into consideration, in devotion to this work and your pelvic health; I feel it is important to allow your Uterus to function as it inherently needs to – hormonal contraception + device free.

    I do not recommend IUD’s for the health risks involved, including the creation of scar tissue at the cervical opening. We can discuss natural contraceptive methods if you are interested.

  • We always work within the receptivity of your body, this depends on how you feel about receiving at this time. We can do many other forms of Well Woman Care and save your womb for another time — or we can explore pelvic fascia work while omitting Uterine depth work.

    If you are open to receiving while you are bleeding, this can be really supportive: particularly if you have scant, minimal bleeds or have darker brown blood indicating your womb needs supportive stimuli to help expel blood.

    If you bleed heavily or experience pain during your bleeds, I do not recommend receiving the Womb work at this time, but we can tend your body in a myriad of other ways.

    • Allow the 1st trimester to be a time of rest and protection. You are welcome to book after 15 weeks and throughout pregnancy.

    • Immediately after a vaginal birth.

    • Wait at least 10-12 weeks following a caesarean section.

  • Come prepared to be in deep devotion to your body, to show up with personal responsibilty + patience in your process however it may unfold.

    For for you to be present and ready to embody this work, I require sobriety.

    Please be in touch if are are wanting this work and are in the process of actively weaning off substances.

  • Well Woman Care is essential along the womb continuum from girlhood to end of life. This care is supportive of clearing imbalances and for ritualistic continuation of health.

    How many sessions will depend on your health goals and desires. If you are experiencing imbalance or complications to your health it likely didn’t happen to you overnight, this work can show immense change initially and is a devoted process of working with your body in layers to unravel the dis-ease.

    This is dedicated work, I recommend devoting yourself to 3-6 sessions to fully embrace and witness the changes as we support your homecoming to the center of your body.

  • Absolutely. This is care is supportive for anyone along the womb continuum from young girlhood to elderhood.

    I offer a discounted rate + length of session for girls and teens under 18.

    A parent is required to be present for the full length of our first session. Follow up sessions are at the discretion of the parent and child if the parent is to remain in attendance.

testimonials

  • Alexis's powerful container made me feel safe to show up exactly as I am. Her space holding lovingly welcomes all of our parts into the room. Her reverence for my body and honor for my boundaries/commitment to consent made me feel deeply safe and held. Her touch is cleansing—it was healing for my tissues and muscles, but also for my subtle body. My whole abdomen felt lighter and more spacious and my breath was so much more easeful afterwards. I left the session feeling like I had lived a true embodied prayer knowing I had devoted time to myself, my relationship to the divine, and to making space for presence, connection and blessings.

    Thea

  • Alexis is a phenomenal bodyworker. I am someone who has experienced a lot of trauma and so touch can be very uncomfortable for me. Alexis took time talking with me, getting me comfortable, and making sure my boundaries were respected. She opened up parts of me that had been shut off for years through her body work and compassion. She made my body feel so secure. I felt my whole body relax and release stress that had been pent up for so long. She made space for me to be vulnerable and she whole heartedly held me in that container. Her voice is like drifting off into a sweet dream that you just wanna stay in a little longer.

    Nicole

  • My body work session with Alexis was deeply inspiring and powerful. She has a strong yet gentle touch that helped me to release much of the tension and stuck emotions in my body, especially my abdomen and womb space. I loved the entire ritual of the experience, from a thorough intake, to a nourishing body work session, to education afterwards about how to continue doing the work for myself. I left feeling in much deeper alignment and more connected to my body.

    Abbey

  • Alexis has incredibly healing hands and a very nurturing presence to her. I had recently fractured my back and needed some care, but I was a bit apprehensive due to my fracture and pain. Alexis was wonderful, she listened to my concerns and adapted her session to meet my needs, and I felt very comfortable. She diligently worked the tension out of my tissues that had tightened up due to inactivity and having to wear a clam shell brace for several months. She was just what I needed and at the right time. I will definitely be going back and I highly recommend her.

    Julie

  • Alexis is amazing. She showed up with such a deep presence which made me feel that time was non-existent. She's very integral and detailed about her work, which made me feel loved and deeply appreciated. The way she touches the body is with so much grace and gentleness, I was incredibly relaxed and felt the most spaciousness in my abdomen than I have ever felt in my entire life. I was walking around so much taller than when I had arrived. She's pure magic!

    Jojo

  • Alexis's skill in bodywork is an authentic extension of her heart. She approaches her work with deep respect. She recognizes the importance of obtaining presence and permission in the sacred space she invited me into to. When Alexis combines her learned skills of healing touch with her gentle approach, it becomes a powerful embodied prayer. This act of invocation activated a strong rapport for me. I have personally experienced and witnessed the transformative effects of her healing hands. It is undeniable that the world is a better place with her presence on this journey alongside us.
