What clients have to say...


Amanda says…

My sessions with Anna have been extremely helpful. I have finally found someone who knows how to deal with early developmental trauma and attachment issues. Anna is kind and patient and extremely respectful. She has spent years developing her impressive skills. I highly recommend her. Make an appointment. You will love her.

Claudia says…

“Initially, I was hesitant to try a new practitioner after my last experience in Germany. But Anna made me feel instantly at ease with her welcoming presence. As soon as we began, I was able to trust my body to her. She intuitively knows when to not force any processes but to help where the parts of my body are willing to heal. I was finally able to sleep again which was my goal. Thank you Anna!"

Melinda says…

“Having received over 10 Somatic Experiencing® treatments from Anna and having gained noticeable healing, improved equanimity, and increased mental health from each one, I can confidently and highly recommend her to those in need of help processing experiences of formative trauma. There is hope. Anna is very welcoming, very supportive, and very good at what she does.”

Helen says...

”It was a pleasure to meet you. Your (Somatic Experiencing®) work was a gift to me from heaven, given how I have been feeling. When I left, I sat in my car for a while just to be as peaceful as when I left (your office), and did not want to do anything more but to be there and to feel and enjoy this joy and peacefulness in me. I came home and mentioned it to my husband and now he wants to meet with you...."

Celine says...

"I really enjoyed our (online Somatic Touch) session, it was very interesting and I got a great piece of awareness about how my body and nervous system respond to physical closeness.  You did a great job guiding me while not being in the room with me and I am quite impressed at your ability to read my experience from so far away!"

Amy says...

"Anna is doing the work that she was born to do! Truly, she's so gifted and that brings healing to others. I've been working through lumbar disc degeneration over the last 18 months, and seeing Anna once a month was a major factor in my achieving a state of wellness and continues to be a critical part of maintaining a happy and pain-free quality of life. I can't recommend her enough!"

AK says...

"Anna is truly a master of her craft. The aromatherapy massage/cranio-sacral therapy/reiki I received (all in one visit) was just what I needed to help me through the grieving process of losing my mother. Her location is perfect for Durham and Chapel Hill residents, and her work is worth the drive for anyone in our surrounding communities. The office is bright and refreshing yet can transform into the perfect calming meditative space needed to achieve maximum relaxation. Thank you Anna. I can't wait for our next session, and to refer friends and family."

Alison says...

"Thanks so much, Anna! Your intuitive ability to isolate and address problem spots and trigger points was fantastic! Of the nearly 15 massage therapists and healing artists I've seen over the last 10 years, you are one of two who didn't need me to verbally validate or alert to problem spots throughout the process. Beyond my intake form, you required little to no guidance to effectively locate and work my most problematic areas. Your talent isn't common, and at least for me, very much appreciated!"

Jess says…

“I came to see Anna with an intense muscle spasm in my back, resulting from an unfortunate lifting incident. I have always heard about cranial sacral therapy, but experiencing it firsthand under her expertise was transformative. Her facility is very lovely and comfortable. The best massage bed I have experienced so far! Anna took the time to understand the root cause of my discomfort, and she navigated the tension and imbalances, addressing not just the surface pain; it felt like she was uprooting issues from deep within my body. In just one session, she alleviated about 75% of my pain. I am now looking forward to my next appointment.”

Jody says…

“Anna, thanks so much. I didn't know how tense my body and mind had become in this time of corona. Your (Somatic Experiencing®) session really guided me to focus on what my body was trying to say and I felt really calm and aware after the session. I am continuing the exercises you suggested and they help. Also, I admit I was skeptical of online work, but you made a believer out of me.

Jennie says...

"I had a wonderful massage by Anna and then Anna did the Physio-Spiritual Etheric Bodywork. All I can say is something amazing happened and she brought myself back to me. I had lost myself due to extreme trauma over the past few years and from some emotional childhood issues. Anna is amazing and she definitely helped me put my "self" back together so I could be me again. I highly recommend Bodhisattva Bodywork - especially doing the energy work if you have lost your sense of self and you're not whole any more."

BJ says...

"Anna pinpointed a major source of a lot of my chronic pain and showed me some practical, easy exercises to do at home that will continue to alleviate that source of pain.  I can't even remember a time when I haven't had that pain on the right side of my neck until after yesterday's massage. To me, that's a miracle. Thank you, Anna."

Kathryn says...

"Anna is a well prepared and confident practitioner who has strong hands and  an intuitive touch. She is luminescent and exudes acceptance, so being around her is immediately relaxing. That said, I went to her to try cranio-sacral and discovered it may not be for me. Though I felt deeply relaxed while having the work done, it did not have a lasting effect once I stood up. Later that week I had an MRI which showed a herniated disc so I'm sure that affected my result.  I would gladly see Anna again for a different type of massage, or perhaps even for cranio-sacral, once my disc herniation is resolved. Simply meeting her is an experience worth having."

Jo-Anne says...

"Anna is not only an excellent massage therapist but is also skilled at helping her clients release emotional issues that may be contributing to physical pain. I was so grateful for her expertise and her sharing of her knowledge along with take home stretches that will continue to help me heal. Excellent experience. "

Kelly says...

"Hi, Anna, I'm still feeling much better. It's funny, massages I've gotten in the past, while relaxing, have really just left me realizing how stiff my back still was.  Yours was the first that I actually still feel any relief a few days later."

Aye says...

"I had an amazing massage/reiki experience with Anna. She took a lot of care to focus on problem areas and tight spots that we had discussed at the beginning of the session, all the while giving an incredible full-body massage. By the end of the appointment, I was totally and completely relaxed like I haven't been in a long time. I had never had reiki done before, but I am a definite believer now! I can't recommend Anna enough and can't wait to go back!"
