Hands-On Care
To revitalize your woman, your motherhood, your artist
It is a potent medicine to be held by another woman.
Held not just in the idea of you, but in the three-dimensional flesh and bones of you. In the Spirit that exists within those bones and all around.
Step into a space where all versions of you get to be here.
Where your body is not something to manage or control, rather to listen to, create with, and honor through personalized hands-on care, story and ritual.
This is an opportunity to let go of the things that you didn’t realize you were holding onto. To find true repair in your organs and tissue. To feel, grieve, rage, shed, and begin again.
I currently offer sessions on Cape Cod, MA and Hudson Valley, NY.
Cost: $300| 2-hour session
* Additional packages available.
Session Structure
The pre-journey: Listen within. What calls you to hands-on work?
Maybe you are a mama who is just now feeling the effects of birth, and processing her story. Maybe you are a woman facing symptoms, diagnosis or pain. Maybe you are at the edge of a new chapter, and want to nourish your body in the process. Maybe you long to rest, to press pause, and to be seen.
Consider your intention. Let your body speak. Upon booking, a brief intake / history will be sent to learn about you, your body and your desire for support. You will receive details to prepare for our session, as well as 1-2 exercises to work with before meeting.
The medicine: We dive into your intention, story, gentle assessment, and hands-on care.
We may work with Holistic Pelvic Care™, myofascial release, lymphatic drainage, energy work, breast care, ceremony, and story-telling. We may address physical imbalances such as incontinence, urinary urgency, prolapse, pelvic pain, constipation, birth trauma, breast pain, scar tissue, disconnect and numbness — or energetic intentions such as deeper relationship with body, self, in intimacy and in creative expression.
You will receive body-based exercises and reflections to support integration at home.
Integration: The medicine continues to unfold.
You will have access to email support for 1 week after your session to process anything that came up for you, or to be with any lingering questions or curiosities.
You will continue to cycle with the exercises and insights offered - to feel this medicine long after the session is over - and to lead you into the next.
CLIENT LOVE
“My time with Erica has been so important to my healing journey, filled with so much love and care. I have felt so held, and safe to wander into places that were previously not accessible to me, but where I needed to go. She supported me to feel those feelings and let them go, and to create space to feel myself, to know my power, and receive what is here for me. Allowing me to connect with me.”
BETH, MOTHER/EDUCATOR
“After my mastectomy, Erica put her knowledge and skills to work to help me regain my full range of motion and recover from lymphedema. Her care was comprehensive and deep — she took into account old surgeries, pregnancy and childbirth, nutrition, and the emotional aspects of healing and wellness. I came away with a much fuller understanding of the interconnectedness of the whole body, and of mind and body.”
