Postpartum Massage & Bodywork 💗

In the postpartum period, your body holds so much. Hours spent feeding, rocking, and carrying your baby can leave you with aching shoulders, a tight neck, sore wrists, low back and hip pain. Postpartum massage is designed to relieve these common discomforts while supporting circulation, lymphatic flow, and overall recovery. It can support the body in unwinding patterns of strain that build up during the early months of motherhood.

Beyond physical relief, nourishing touch is deeply regulating for the nervous system. So much of this season is about giving. Massage offers you a space to receive, soften, and return to your own body. Mothers often feel lighter, calmer, and more connected to themselves after massage sessions. Misa and Bianka have weekday and weekend openings to offer convenience to your schedule, book your postpartum massage through the link in bio. 💗

Postpartum Care with Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

In Chinese Medicine, the way a woman is cared for after birth matters deeply. Postpartum is not just a short recovery period. It is a foundational window that can influence your health for years to come.

Pregnancy and birth draw heavily on Qi and Blood. After delivery, your body is open, tender, and recalibrating while you are also caring for a newborn. When this season is supported with warmth and intentional care, the body can truly restore. When it is rushed, depletion can linger as hormonal imbalance, painful cycles, chronic fatigue, or emotional overwhelm. Acupuncture helps you heal, rebalance, and rebuild strength in a sustainable way.

Physically, treatments support uterine recovery, scar healing, pelvic and back pain, incontinence, prolapse, constipation, night sweats, and hair loss. They can also increase milk supply, relieve clogged ducts, and help prevent mastitis.

Emotionally, postpartum can bring anxiety, irritability, sadness, or difficulty sleeping. Acupuncture regulates stress, steadies mood, and creates grounded calm so you can move through this season with more resilience.

Spiritually, postpartum is an initiation. You are integrating your baby’s birth and your own rebirth. Acupuncture helps you feel centered, connected, and empowered in this new version of yourself.

Whether you are newly postpartum or years into motherhood, you deserve care that restores your energy and brings you back into balance.

Neuromagical Tweens ✨ A 6-week group series for tweens ages 10-12 with ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent experiences.

Does your child feel overwhelmed by big emotions, sensory overload, or a body that seems out of sync with their fast-moving mind? Do they struggle to express what they are feeling, connect with peers, or regulate stress and anxiety, even though they are bright, creative, and deeply perceptive?

You have a brain that is capable of magical things! Maybe you feel like your brain moves too fast for your body, or like your feelings are too big or intense, or maybe you don’t always know how to express what’s happening in your inside world. Often, it’s just a matter of understanding what your brain and body need to be able to feel your feels, learn, and connect with others.

This workshop series is designed specifically for neurodivergent tweens who experience the world intensely and need practical, embodied tools to feel more grounded, confident, and connected. Rather than asking kids to “think their way” through emotions or behaviors, this group supports them in learning how their nervous system works, what their body is communicating, and how to respond with skill and self-compassion.

Somatic Therapy with Pam ✨

For those who are neurodivergent or carrying the imprint of trauma, life can feel overwhelming on a nervous system level. You may feel highly sensitive, easily overstimulated, anxious, burned out, or disconnected from your body. You may have spent years cognitively trying to heal patterns that actually live in the body.

At Luminae, Pam Lozoff, LCSW, offers somatic psychotherapy for women, mothers, tweens, and families. Her work gently helps regulate the nervous system, process stored trauma, and interrupt cycles of anxiety, disassociation, and emotional overwhelm.

Rather than pathologizing sensitivity, Pam recognizes that sensitivity is as intelligence. Sessions weave together talk therapy, mindful body awareness, and relational skills to help you feel safer in your body and more steady in your relationships. If you are longing to feel grounded, understood, and supported in a way that truly meets your nervous system, book a somatic therapy session with Pam!

Acupuncture for Yang Fire Horse year 🔥🐴 This year’s energy is of quick action and velocity. When this momentum meets already full schedules and overwhelmed nervous systems, the Heart and Shen becomes overstimulated. This shows up as symptoms like anxiety, racing thoughts, insomnia, restless sleep, emotional intensity, frantically doing things, feeling ungrounded.

In Chinese Medicine, Fire is balanced by Water. Therefore it especially important to nourish Yin and support the Kidneys, the deep root of vitality and resourced stability. The Kidneys help ground fear, anchor the nervous system, and create an inner sense of safety that allows you to move through life steadily rather than burning out. It gives you resiliency through ups and downs, willpower to go through phases and cycles of change, and appreciation for the miracle of life.

This year invites us to pace ourselves by moving from alignment and embodiment rather than urgency. Acupuncture offers a rebalancing and recalibration of your body so that you feel more healthy, your energy feels sustainable, and you feel connected to what truly matters to you. This is a powerful time to receive care. Book your acupuncture session with Ivy now!

Being with What Is ~ Breathwork Journey ✨

Feeling into this 1st month of the 2026 Western Calendar, and the 1st new moon this Sunday (1/18), the new year tends to be saturated with ideas and ambitions of change, forward movement, goals, resolutions etc, which tends to overshadow the beauty of the being. This time together will be about resting into what is, and being in presence with what’s most alive for us at this time.

To keep it easeful, while we’re winding down in the snake season, is there anything you’re looking to shed or let go of, and anything you’re looking to call in?

Where do you already feel at home in your life, and how could you spend a little more time there?

What qualities / sensations would you like to cultivate more/less of (e.g. liberation, play, joy)?

We’ll start with a grounding meditation, light somatic movement, dialogue about the theme, and move into the main ingredient, the breathwork.

We have a full group for this gathering. 🙏✨

Massage for deep restoration ✨ Winter settles deeply into the body. Cold temperatures and accumulated stress often show up as tight muscles, neck and shoulder tension, back and hip pain, achy joints, fatigue. At the beginning of the year, many people feel depleted yet intentionally ready to care for themselves in a more healthy way. Massage and bodywork offer a grounding way to warm the body, release held tension, and support the nervous system in slowing down and restoring balance.

Deep Tissue Myofascial Release Massage works with the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue to unwind chronic tightness, improve mobility, and bring lasting relief to areas that have been holding tension and pain.

Herbal Poultice Massage adds another layer of relief, using warm poultice herbs applied directly to the body to pe*****te cold, soothe sore muscles, increase circulation, and calm the nervous system. These treatments are especially supportive during winter, when warmth and intentional care help the body soften and reset.

✨ Give your body some deep rejuvenation, book your massage session now!
