Teresa Harris
Licensed Massage Therapist, Arvigo® Practitioner, Certified Pre- & Perinatal Massage Therapist
Facing continued fertility challenges had been one of the most trying times of my life. 4 pregnancy losses and 2 unsuccessful IVF cycles in 6 and a half years left me feeling angry, confused, desperate, resentful, and questioning everything I knew about my body, my emotional strength, and my spiritual maturity. But for as difficult a time as this season was, it had also been a time of tremendous blessing. I learned essential things about how to uniquely care for a woman's body that I did not learn growing up (but should have--we all should have). Once I was able to shift my perspective on what it means to be a woman with regards to work, play, nourishment, rest, and nurturing others, the menstrual and digestive complaints I'd suffered with for over a decade resolved. I also forged personal, and later, professional relationships with amazing women's health practitioners who are now my referral base for my clients.
"I am seeing miracles happen. It's both awe-inspiring and humbling to see what happens when we give our body the support it needs to heal. I am so grateful to have been called to this very important work of supporting women just like me."
In professional practice I strive to educate each client, empower and support her. But above all else, I endeavor to be a healing presence: to hold safe and sacred space for each client to enter into the full experience of life; praying only for my client to experience whatever wisdom and deep healing is available to her. In 2020, I celebrated 23 years as a Licensed Massage Therapist so you can trust that you are in knowledgeable, intuitive and very good hands.
My studies in Arvigo® Therapy and Yoga Therapy have given me unique ways to support a woman on all levels of her being: physically, energetically, psycho-emotionally, intuitively, and spiritually. We don't just stay focused on eliminating physical symptoms, we explore ways she can live in harmony with her own nature.
I recovered from each one of my miscarriages with Herbal PeriSteam Hydrotherapy. It is one of the most loving things I have ever done for myself. I cried the first time I did it because I had never been so thoughtful and kind to this part of my body before. I grieved that I had been so callus with my womb space, and I asked for her forgiveness. I have steamed regularly ever since as a way to relax, center and stay connected to my own rhythm and cycle.
