My name is Mira Luna and I specialize in pain relief, posture improvement and injury recovery bodywork. While the mainstay of my practice is structural integration, craniosacral therapy and orthopedic bodywork, I draw on many different modalities to address your needs and goals.
I have over 14 years experience and 1700 hours of training, similar to a Masters degree level of training. I have a high level of orthopedic bodywork training to care for serious cases safely, as well as a structural integration certification to address complicated postural issues effectively. Additionally, I am trained in craniosacral therapy for nervous system and emotional issues.
While very physical in nature, my practice also holds an emotionally and spiritually healing element to it. Though I can help you along in your healing process, I hope you learn to heal your own body during our journey together.
I am a former gymnast and cyclist. I currently love doing ecstatic dance, qi gong, trail running, hiking, pilates, boot camp, Zumba and yoga. My studies and practice in organizing have given my a strong understanding of how to support clients, with cultural sensitivity, from many different backgrounds (low income, differently abled, LGBTQ, POC, religious minorities).
