You are the Healer

Holistic Health Care understands the individual as an integration of body, mind and spirit. Through Yoga Therapy and Direct Somatic integration (massage), holistic health care empowers the individual to take control of their complete health:
Body, Mind, and Spirit. Holistic Healthcare honors the complexity of your humanness; you are more than your symptoms, diagnosable disease and discomfort. The holistic approach to health and wellness begins with addressing your most present need and moves into the root causes of your discomfort. While there are common avenues to alleviate discomfort and move into harmonious health, there are no one size fits all solutions in holistic healthcare. You are seen for your entire being and treated as such. Your level of comfort and desired avenues to treatment (nutrition, movement, mindset, somatic integration) guide your journey to health, happiness and peace.
The North Star has been the guiding light for people for thousands of years. This same light resides in each one of us, guiding us to our Authentic Self and best Life. North Star Holistic Health maps the way to this light within you, igniting your passion for life and inspiring you to live your best life. Working body to spirit, navigating into purpose, abundance, and freedom.

Empowered RealignmentEmpowered realignment addresses the discomfort in body and mind by working body to mind and mind to body. Health is multi-directional. Discomfort in the body (whether it be a diagnosable disease, pain, or a lack of inhabitation) is linked to the mind; likewise discomfort in the mind (such as anxiety, depression, or distorted sense of self) is linked to the body. These links are relational, not cause and effect, and are the pathways to total health. Utilizing tools such as meditation, Ayurveda, mindful eating, joy based movement, and action based practical spirituality, Empowered Realignment integrates your body and mind for total health.
