Hi I'm Shara

I have a unique ability—and that is to get people out of pain…often long-standing chronic pain. 

After more than 25 years in the medical field—as an Occupational Therapist, Ergonomist, and Feldenkrais Practitioner®—and over three decades of personal growth work with world-class teachers, I bring a holistic, full-body approach to healing.

 

I also offer office ergonomic consultations, mind/body retreats, and advanced training courses for medical professionals.
