Faith, Fitness, Nutrition, Massage and CranialSacral Therapy
As a Holistic Nutritionist I advises individuals, families and groups on how to improve diet, lifestyle and attitude to prevent disease and promote health. Certified Health Minister/Nutritional Coach:
I provide my clients with Nutrition on Holistic Health, helping people understand the importance of real nutrition as a whole. There is a lot of information out there about what you should be eating, what diet works for which body type, or blood-type, or whatever. You need to devise a food regime that promotes maximum digestability and nutrient absorption with real pleasure and enjoyment in your meals. I really encourage looking at nourishing traditions! As much as you can, go local. Know where you food is coming from, and how it was farmed. Develop a personal nutrition that respects the cycle of food production, and do a little research: look into CSA’s (community supported agriculture), food co-ops and farmer’s markets, find out where you can get pasture raised meats, eggs and dairy products, find ways to reduce your carbon imprint, and share what you find with others. The more we contribute to changing the face of the food industry, the happier and healthier we will all be. And don’t worry about being perfect. Every little bit that you can begin to incorporate in the Now, will create the platform for more change in the future. Just begin! Contact me today! FN Specialist

Registered Massage Therapist:
I am a graduate of the Baltimore School of Massage, Licensed in Maryland, Nationally Certified through NCBTMB. I provide therapeutic massage to my clients by evaluating kinesthetic movement, palpation
of muscles and postural assessment. Specialize in CranioSacral Therapy:
CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including:
Migraine Headaches
Chronic Neck and Back Pain
Motor-Coordination Impairments
Colic
Autism
Central Nervous System Disorders
Orthopedic Problems
Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries
Scoliosis
Infantile Disorders
Learning Disabilities
Chronic Fatigue
Emotional Difficulties
Stress and Tension-Related Problems
Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders
Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ)
Neurovascular or Immune Disorders
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-Surgical Dysfunction

I believe that motivation and accountability are key to achieving personal fitness goals. My background has given me the knowledge to help clients return to working out after an injury or while injured. Using many different training styles which include muscular endurance, plyometrics, interval training and flexibility, I can help anyone achieve their fitness goals. I train outside, in your home or at your gym!
