Established in 2012.Shortly after my DONA International Doula Training in May of 2012 I attended my first birth and I was blown away. I was amazed and transfixed by the power and beauty of a laboring women and the love she had her for newly born child. Since then, I have worked to build a heart-centered business around women and families. Read more

    I had two prenatal massages from Colleen towards the end of my pregnancy and they were AMAZING and sooo worth it! I highly recommend treating yourself with one or two or more!! Plus Colleen is just a rad woman to talk to and be around!

    Colleen was great. She showed up to take my placenta about 30 minutes after I gave birth. She communicated before and after and spent a good amount of time postpartum checking in on me when she delivered the capsules. I also benefitted from her massage expertise before my delivery. She made the last few weeks bearable with her great massages. If you are on the fence about encapsulating, talk to her. She is a great resource for pregnancy/postpartum care.

    Colleen is amazing! I was so happy with the prenatal massage she gave me. She made me feel so comfortable. At 36 weeks pregnant it's hard for me to feel relaxed and she made it happen! I LOVED every second of my 90 minute massage and wished it could have been longer! The pressure she used and environment she created were so calming, and she is also really good about checking in and making sure you are satisfied with what she is doing. I was so excited to find out she is willing to come to my home for a massage after my son is born too. I am also using her services for placenta encapsulation. She is just a wonderful person in general who seems like she really knows what she is doing and loves what she does. Highly highly recommend!

    I purchased placenta encapsulation from Colleen as well as a post-natal massage at my own home.
    Colleen is great- very responsive, attentive, and empathetic. I had to have a C section and she gave me very thorough instructions that were specific to the procedure and the hospital. Her pickup went incredibly smoothly and she delivered the capsules (and chocolate!) to me in the hospital two days later. I would highly recommend placenta encapsulation to anyone who inquires- I didn't realize how crazy post natal hormone swings would be and I am sure that taking my placenta capsules not only helped ( I upped the dose when I was feeling the most crazy) but also gave me some structure to understand and respond to how I was feeling.
    Colleen came to my home a few weeks after my son was born to give me a massage. I never would have been able to do this if she hadn't come to me. This is such a valued and special thing to be able to do for yourself if you can especially when you're giving so much and incredibly tired. She's a talented massage therapist.

    Colleen is such an intuitive massage therapist. Her extensive knowledge of women's bodies enables her to give massages that truly heal. I am so grateful I have found her and have her magic hands as a resource!!
