Massage provides time to rest; to collect and reintroduce the parts of yourself that slip away throughout the days, weeks, and months of living that happen between the times we take care of ourselves. This is a call to care for yourself, yet another radical act in our busy world.

Stephanie Lavon Trotter, LMT #18138 Stephanie has been learning about the body in action and rest for the past two decades. Through her practice as a performer and vocalist, her understanding of the body has deepened the more curious she has become. In 2010, she began as a clinical massage therapist, treating chronic and acute injury through rehabilitation, working alongside chiropractors and physiotherapists. Stephanie has begun to expand her field through somatic practices. Stephanie believes somatic work helps to heal our patterns that inhibit us from living more fully in our bodies.
As a manual therapist she focuses on the structure-function relationship of the body through not only the muscles but also the fascial, visceral, circulatory and nervous systems. Stephanie uses this work to address recurring patterns within the body and overuse injuries, alleviate and effect chronic and acute pain, support transformations of postural deviations, and create awareness in the body by combining manual therapy with somatic work -a deep, personal knowledge of the body. When we can remap our bodies, we can use them with less effort, we can live with less discomfort. |
