Get to know Regina,

During my youth, I spent a summer with my aunt in her third trimester of pregnancy. That time nurtured an awareness of the beauty and challenges inherent in pregnancy. I did everything I could to comfort my aunt, secretly wishing it would grant me a place beside my Mom in helping my aunt during her childbirth, which ultimately, it did not. Years later, I devoted hours to drawing pregnant figures and fetal anatomy from library book images. This art highlighted the variances in the bodies of my mother, aunts, grandmother, and even my own as it transformed, leading me to a deep fascination with the complexities of female biology and experiences.  Fast forward to 2024, I now have nearly three decades of clinical practice in female-centered bodywork, I hold multiple advanced certifications in soft tissue and somatic correction and have attended over 525 births as a doula. 

These days I’m committed to using bodywork to support healthy physiologic childbirth and to resolve pain that is specific to female biology, biomechanics, and lived experiences.  Much of my training and work has been dedicated to understanding developed postural patterns that can contribute to pain in pregnancy, cause fetal malpresentation, delay the onset of labor, or stall progress in childbirth. Following postural patterns has also fostered a deeper understanding of the pain that comes from female experiences- irrespective of whether the individual was assigned female at birth or identifies as transgender, nonbinary or gender non-conforming. 

Almost every day of the week I get to use my training, experience, hands, heart, and intuition to guide people toward the inherent health that resides within. When I’m not in session or collaborating with my peers, I’m enjoying time with my two fantastic young people, being active with friends, or expanding joy and connection with my partner. 

 

Dedicating my life to mastering bodywork techniques that are specific to the lasting health of females has been a journey filled with awe, connection, commitment, and frustration. The joy and sense of purpose I gain from applying three decades of training and clinical experience to address the unique challenges and traumas faced by women is immeasurable.
