"I believe we are here to remember our joyful, God-filled spirit, to find and love our authentic selves, our Essence in Harmony with Life around us. Relief of discomforts or dis-ease of body, mind & spirit and the emergence of the true self, can be the result of our time together."

CranioSacral Therapy
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a light touch, manual therapy that addresses and releases tensions deep within the body. CST allows the body to release the effects of stress and blocks that can lead to disease. It works with the Cranio Sacral System (CSS) which consists of the membranes and Cerebral Spinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. The CSS directly impacts the Central Nervous System where an imbalance can cause sensory, motor or neurological difficulties. So CST works on balancing the entire body and all of its systems. Its delicate techniques allow the body's natural self correcting mechanisms to function properly. CST is typically performed with the patient fully clothed on a massage table.
Mary has experience in working with all ages including prenatal, infants, children, adults, the elderly and hospice patients.
Yoga
Yoga is an ancient eastern Indian art of nearly 3000 years and harmonizes body, mind and spirit. Mary's yoga classes can be a source of inspiration, of maintaining flexibility and of learning to breathe while being.
Hospice
The process of dying is sometimes a scary and confusing place to be. CST is a great modality for those in the last stages of life. Often, we need help in letting go of past struggles, while staying in the present moment and allowing grace within as we transition. Helping the dying to have a joyful, loving and peaceful journey home to God is an important aspect of Essence in Harmony. CST also aids those burdened by grief and helps in the mourning process.
