About Donna

“There is nothing more beautiful than feeling a person connect deeply with their body and the deep rest and healing that this offers the client as they choose to be with their body in stillness and in movement.”

Donna offers bodywork therapies, yoga classes, massage, gentle exercise, meditation classes, workshops and retreats all with the focus of supporting her clients to develop a deeper and more loving relationship with their body and being.

Her clinical experience involves one on one sessions where she works with clients who present with an injury or physical condition, emotional stress/issues, anxiousness, a depletion in energy, tension or simply wanting to deeply rest, reconnect and restore. She brings a warmth, openness, deep care and commitment to her clients offering them the space to let go and be themselves.

Through the bodywork therapies, Donna works with her clients to assist them in their understanding of the underlying cause of the ill in the first place and supports through discussion and hands on treatment to clear tensions that are held in the body so that the client is able to let go of old patterns that may stop them from moving forward or from healing an injury or physical ailment.

Having been through a diagnosis of breast cancer 13 years ago at the age of 33, Donna now has a passion for supporting people through their diagnosis, treatment and post treatment for cancer with the array of modalities that she treats with.

“Having been through cancer, I bring an understanding as to what the client is experiencing and I am fully committed to offering people the support through what can often be a difficult time.”
