My practice focuses on holistic bodywork in consideration of its interconnected systems.
Only when in balance (homeostasis), can our body reach its full potential.
My training includes corrective exercise, breathwork coaching, instrument-assisted therapies, tui na, cupping, and orthopedic, sports, and lymphatic styles of massage, as well as Spinal Reflex Therapy, fascia releasing techniques, dynamic stress, organ and vagus nerve manipulation, traditional Chinese medicine philosophy, acupuncture, and complete decongestive therapy.
I’ve helped clients with many conditions by viewing the signals as requests for help.

Elaine Woo
OWNER, CERTIFIED WELLNESS COACH
My coaching sessions focus on mind and body connection — to align lifestyle with your core beliefs and values. When you acknowledge and honor yourself, you can you live a life where you feel peace and joy.
Some of my clients have underlying anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, eating disorder, attention deficit disorder, or trauma. To me, these are words in which we can begin to build understanding and unravel a way forward, but it does not define a person.
My coaching experience includes career, communication, emotional well-being, personal identity, physical fitness, relationships, spirituality, work-life balance.

LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPIST & CERTIFIED PERSONAL TRAINER
I am Michael Spencer Balensiefer; a husband, father, and Masters-aged athlete dedicated to enhancing the remarkable 'platform' that is our body. In today's world, holistic health is often overlooked. True health encompasses not just the body's physical systems, but the mental, spiritual, and emotional, too. (And taking omega fatty acids won't hurt!)
My journey into the world of bodywork is deeply personal; I've faced and conquered disabilities, which has ignited a sincere passion towards helping others heal. To master one's craft, one must commit to daily learning and growth--and I am unwavering in my dedication to expanding my knowledge to assist you.
I invite you to embark on a journey with us to enhance your well-being and unlock your full potential!
