Camille Brittnum, LMT
Camille began her health and wellness journey in 2015 when she started having health issues arise at a young age. She found herself unclear on the best practices for natural wellness and began her research. In the process of discovering ways for natural healing she started her yoga practice and enjoyed learning the benefits of different postures and how the body reacts to different poses. She started to take a closer look at the anatomy of the body and natural ways to heal it. Camille attended Soma Institute specializing in Clinical Massage Therapy and Sports Massage. Coming out of school she strives to blend the art of yoga practice and massage therapy. Camille is diligent, compassionate and wants the best for her clients; she believes with consistent focus and full bodywork, maintaining consistent physical exercise, proper nutrition, and mental meditation, any ailment can be remedied. By healing the body in natural ways we are able to reach a level of holistic wellness that is long lasting. Camille enjoys learning about natural herbs and oils, she is excited to start a new journey in helping and healing by educating one client at a time.

Sharon Haynes, LMT
I dedicated thirty years to a career that I was truly blessed to have, but it definitely came with its fair share of stress and high-pressure challenges. That journey eventually led me here, to a path of holding space for others’ healing journeys. I’ve learned that massage is so much more than just working out a knot; it’s a chance to hit the reset button on your nervous system.
My goal in every session is to be completely present and grounded so you feel safe enough to actually let go. Whether we’re working through something specific or you just need to breathe, I’m there to hold that space so your body can do what it does best: heal at its own pace.
I’m a big fan of traditional methods and I’m currently diving deeper into Shiatsu and Reiki.
On a personal note, I enjoy cooking, dancing, practicing mindfulness, and mixing up aromatherapy butters and creams.

Alex Lindo, LMT
With over a decade of experience and training in advanced bodywork modalities, my philosophy as a bodyworker stems from profound experiences I’ve had in my own life of the body’s innate intelligence and the capacities of conscious touch as catalysts for transformation. I’ve witnessed bodywork achieve remarkable outcomes—resolving injuries deemed permanent, succeeding where surgeries have failed, and helping release trauma carried for a lifetime.
Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy
A specialized, targeted approach to address and release trigger points, relieving pain and dysfunction associated with issues many people have come to presume are untreatable such as migraines, scoliosis, pelvic floor issues (treated non-invasively), and more. Instruction in self-care exercises and the addressing of underlying perpetuating factors are significant portions of what allow this change to become lasting. This is bodywork that often succeeds where surgery fails. If you are looking for truly targeted work meant to create lasting change, Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy is what I recommend.
Biodynamic Cranial Approach
The deepest yet gentlest work I offer, Biodynamic Cranial Approach can be great for supporting the body’s innate rhythms and self-healing capabilities. It is often profoundly relaxing and can be useful for addressing deeply-held injuries.
This differs from other styles of cransiosacral therapy in that its primary focus is on the evolution of body-as-consciousness as opposed to “fixing” a specific issue. Treatment happens in accordance with what is known as the inherent treatment plan.
Experiencing this work is what led me to become a bodyworker. It offers the most direct, felt-sense experience I’ve ever had of the holistic ideal of treating the whole person, though it can be a bit difficult to describe because the perspective it’s approached with is so different from what most people are used to.
