Elizabeth Kelley

Hello, I am Elizabeth Kelley, a mother of 2 boys, wife of one, and a native central coast.  I grew up here and moved away in my 20s where I eventually went to school for massage in Boston, Massachussetts at the Muscular Therapy Insitute. The massage school's techniques are based on anatomy with a blend of clinical/medical massage and swedish. I was introduced and studied trigger point therapy and myofascia techniques.  I then studied and focused on pre-natal massage, post-natal care / massage, and being a Doula. Helping women transition to motherhood is such a privilege. For the past year, my training and focus has been on CranioSacral Therapy from Upledger.

CranioSacral Therapy is a fully clothed bodywork that is very light touch. It tunes into the nervous system by way of the bones and fascia of that system to facilitate the body's ability to self-correct. The brain and spinal cord is surrounded by fluid (CSF) and contained in 3 layers of fascia that is then attached to bones. It is with this structure that we focus on. Function follows structure so by facilitating restrictions within the structure of this system the functions within that system improve. 

There is a list of things CranioSacral Therapy help with and here are a few: Brain injury, learning disabilities, dizziness, headaches, depression, back pain, pain anywhere in the body, ADHD, autism, dementia, and chronic fatigue.

Quality of life is so important. Having a wellness routine can help maintain this or it may be a short journey of wellness to get you back on track. Every individual's needs are different. I am honored and privileged to be part of this work. You are worth self-care and I would love to work with you and meet you where you are at.
