Hello, I’m Tina.

Thank you for stopping by. I am passionate about helping women like you heal from chronic pain because…I can relate.

I understand the unique challenges of mid-life: the transition of the empty nest, the hormonal shifts of menopause, and especially, the onset of aches and pains that begin to limit once-loved activities.

It was chronic pain that led me to become an expert in chronic pain relief through Yoga Therapy. I suffered for years with chronic pain in one of my legs as a result of a past injury that never healed. Despite consulting countless specialists, the pain continued. Feeling unsupported and frustrated, I knew I had to figure it out myself. I refused to live the rest of my life limited by my condition.

I firmly believed in the resilience of the body and was determined to find a way to heal. I delved deeply into my yoga studies, dedicating myself to continuous learning, training, and practice, culminating in an 1000-hour IAYT-Yoga Therapy certification. This specialized training, which is akin to a master’s degree, not only helped me completely resolve my own chronic condition, but also illuminated my true passion and ability to guide others.

My Mission

Through this journey, I realized that women in this stage of life need the specific support I did not receive. When it comes to chronic pain, they need a safe, non-surgical option that gets to the root of the problem and doesn’t just mask the symptoms.

That's why I dedicate my work to helping women relieve chronic pain using a holistic approach that addresses the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

Now, I am excited to share my knowledge, guide, and support you on your own healing journey, safely and holistically.

When I’m not helping others, I enjoy hiking, traveling, and spending quality time with my family (my husband and three grown children) and friends.

Thanks for getting to know me a little better. I look forward to hearing your story.
