About
Thanks for being here. I'm Adele (she/her). Here, you will find a brief statement about my practice and treatment philosophy, as well as my educational background.
​
I am a doting mother (to: humans, cat, and bunny), registered nurse, empath, and healer. My practice is supportive and preventative. I embrace the body’s inherent wisdom and ability to heal. Yet, times arise when we are faced with illness, imbalance and emotional challenges. We all need help on the journey to health, well-being and self-discovery.
With over 20 years of nursing practice, in a variety of healthcare settings, I personally and professionally feel there is need for a multitude of alternative healthcare modalities. Through the years, my clients have been my valued teachers. These shared experiences act as a touchstone to the power that lies within and hold space for the universal force of Divine intelligence - making itself known. In this space, my work is both receptive and intuitive, offering a passage into greater healing and balance.
​
Dynamic Body Balancing (DBB) is a gentle, hands-on technique, which is grounded in craniosacral therapy (releases restrictions to relieve pain and dysfunction associated with the bones/tissues/membranes of the central nervous system), myofascial unwinding (gentle release of the body’s connective tissue), and biofield therapies (energy work). This modality promotes physical function, deep relaxation, and accelerates healing. I work with individuals, families, and have a special interest in maternal and pediatric care.
My work in DBB began 12 weeks into motherhood. After struggling with a breastfeeding challenge, which went unnoticed by multiple healthcare providers, a DBB practitioner solved the problem during our first visit. Since then, I have been utilizing this practice in many areas of my life.
​
I feel deeply honored to provide care to the individuals and families in my practice. Services are provided on Bainbridge Island, 45 minutes from downtown Seattle.
