✨ Welcome to the Carp Ridge EcoWellness Centre, Sandra Hauch! ✨

We’re pleased to introduce Sandra Hauch, Wellbeing Coach, who brings a unique, compassionate approach to helping people understand the deeper patterns behind behaviours they may be struggling to change.

Sandra is a Certified Hypnotherapist (CHt) specializing in emotional and behavioural change, with a Diploma in Analytical Hypnotherapy, certification as a Make Peace with Food™ Practitioner, and training as an NLP Master Practitioner.

Her approach goes beyond restriction and willpower, exploring the connection between the mind, nervous system, emotions, beliefs, and behaviours to help you understand why certain patterns keep repeating—and how to create new, more supportive habits.

Sandra can support clients working through:
🌿 Emotional, binge & stress eating
🌿 Unwanted or repetitive behaviours
🌿 Procrastination & emotional avoidance
🌿 People-pleasing and self-sabotaging patterns
🌿 Overspending and overindulgence
🌿 Building a healthier, more balanced relationship with food and yourself

Sandra also offers German New Medicine (GNM) Coaching, helping clients explore their symptoms and experiences through the GNM framework while supporting nervous system regulation and emotional wellbeing.

If you’ve ever found yourself asking, “Why do I keep doing this when it’s not what I really want?”—Sandra can help you begin exploring the answer.

💚 Ready for a different approach? Book a clarity call with Sandra to explore your goals and discover whether working together is the right fit for you.

Giacinto's Barbershop and... Spa?

You may recognize the very kind and gentle soul getting pampered in the barber chair, that's none other than Dr. Katherine Willow, ND. of Carp Ridge EcoWellness Centre just up the road from us. Over the years, Kathrine has treated, counseled and mentored countless people, and is always willing to lend a listening ear. So, on a sleepy cloudy Saturday, I offered to give back in kind.

I've offered these short and sweet barber massages since we opened our little barbershop in Carp some 2-3 years ago, along with hot shaves, as a more unique and relaxing side to the shop.

It's not considered registered massage therapy and thus not insurance deductible, but it's quick and we only charge 15-20$ for 15 minutes, usually added on top of a haircut, or it's also great to de-stress quickly at the end of the day or during a lunch break.

For the sake of clarity, a registered massage therapist is highly trained and certified for doing deep work on muscle tissues and other structures like fascia, even the lymphatic system. A barber's massage is completely different, as it's focused almost purely on relaxation, with very superficial work being done.

There's no doubt that it promotes blood circulation in the head, neck and scalp, but it's not as systematic as a proper RMT massage.

I would say it's like taking care of a kitchen knife: you frequently do superficial work, like setting the blade with a rod before use, but every so often you need a proper sharpening.

As it happens, the Carp Ridge Eco Wellness Center has a number of massage therapists available, as well as naturopathic therapy and psychotherapy. Check out their Facebook and Instagram page and find a practitioner you connect with :)

For all those in-between times when you need a tune-up, you'll find our shop next to the post office here in Carp :)

**The massage helped… so why is the pain back?**

You felt better for a few hours—or maybe even a few days—and then the discomfort returned.

This can happen, and it doesn't necessarily mean that massage therapy isn't helping.

Pain and discomfort can have many contributing factors, and sometimes it can be helpful to look beyond the area where the symptoms are felt.

In my practice, I take the time to assess each person, understand their individual presentation and goals, and determine what approach may be most appropriate for their specific needs.

**Massage therapy and manual osteopathy can be complementary approaches when supported by clinical assessment and a good understanding of the body.** Depending on your presentation, one approach may be more appropriate than the other, or they may complement each other as part of your overall treatment plan.

**Fortunately, I offer both approaches in my practice**, allowing us to choose the approach that best suits your needs and goals.

Every person is different, and treatment should be adapted accordingly.

The goal is not simply to address where you feel discomfort, but to understand the bigger picture and provide care that is specific to **you, your body, and your needs.**

**Does your jaw hurt when you chew?**

Pain with chewing is one of the symptoms that can occur with **temporomandibular disorders (TMDs)**—a group of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joints, the muscles used for chewing, and surrounding structures.

You may notice:
• Pain in front of or around the ear
• Tenderness in the jaw muscles
• Pain when chewing or yawning
• Jaw fatigue
• Difficulty opening your mouth comfortably

TMDs can have multiple contributing factors, including muscle overactivity, clenching or grinding, joint irritation, and other mechanical or behavioral factors.

Massage Therapy and Manual Osteopathy are complementary, yet distinct, approaches that may be appropriate for individuals experiencing jaw, facial, neck, or shoulder tension. As I offer both services, you may choose to begin with either Massage Therapy or Manual Osteopathy based on your needs and treatment goals. Your assessment will help determine the most appropriate approach and guide your individualized treatment plan.

If jaw pain is persistent, severe, or affecting your ability to eat or open your mouth, an assessment by an appropriate healthcare professional is important.
