Relaxation & Deep Tissue Massage
Relaxation (Swedish) Massage supports central nervous system relaxation. Flowing, soothing massage with varying pressure depths, often incorporating hot steamy compresses for the back, neck, shoulders and face. Organic Massage oils made freshly are used in each session.
Deep Tissue Massage is best suited for chronic pains that are muscular, postural, or injury related in origin.
Focused pressure, connective tissue mobilization combine with heat, analgesic balms and advance massage skills to help release held tension, and increase blood flow into the fibers of the deeper tissue.

Massage, Acupressure, & CranioSacral Therapy
I offer three distinct healing modalities: (1) Therapeutic Massage for relaxation and / or deep tissue work (2) Acupressure to release trauma & alleviate chronic emotions such as anxiety, fear, and grief & (3) CranioSacral Therapy to calm your central nervous system.
What can you expect during a session? I will listen carefully to your specific requests & tailor each session to best achieve your desired outcomes. My treatments are goal-oriented in the sense that I hone all relevant tools in my “kit” to most effectively attain the results you prioritize; whether this is deep muscle relaxation, pain relief, or emotional release. I conjure spaces of respect, care, and transformation. You can count on me to maintain a clear focus as I channel life force energy to help heal your body, mind, and spirit.
In particular, in Chinese medicine, each of us is thought to have a “diamond,” or true nature, residing within our heart. But chronic emotions, life stressors, & traumatic experiences can occlude this diamond & manifest as physical imbalance & dis-ease. Activating acupressure meridians, I help your body remove such occlusions to allow for physical symptom relief and realignment with your heart spirit. If you are ready to clear a current, generational, or past-life trauma negatively impacting your body-mind-spirit, we can activate one of the eight extraordinary vessels to seek relief.
My path to bodywork has been full and winding. Click here to read more.
My specialities include: Therapeutic Massage, Somatic Trauma Release, and Cranio-Sacral Therapy. I also offer Fire Cupping for deep muscle relaxation & Gua Sha. It would be an honor to help you heal with ease.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a relaxing holistic healing modality that involves the practitioner applying pressure to reflex points on the client’s feet or hands to aid in the relief of pain and stress and to contribute toward boosting the immune system.
The feet have reflex points that correspond to organs and systems of the body and when pressure is applied to these areas energy blockages are released and the body can restore itself toward greater balance. Pressure on the reflex points helps to calm the nervous system and stimulates the release of endorphins, easing physical discomfort and improving general well-being. Enjoy an epsom salt foot bath at the start of your session. Combo with Polarity Champissage for a full body experience
Polarity Champissage

Marma acupressure points are activated on the head, neck, face and shoulders using warm herbal oils, hot stones and pranic cleansing strokes to rebalance your energy body. Finish with a hot compress to penetrate the medicinal properties of the herbal oils into your body for them to work their magic! Some benefits include relief from headaches, migraines and symptoms of TMJ, stimulates lymphatic drainage and improves immune system, promotes hair grown and improves scalp condition, tones and sculpts the face and neck. Infused with Reiki. Combo with Foot Reflexology for a full body experience!

Ayurvedic Bodywork and consults
Ayurvedic Treatments
I love to help people connect to their life force using the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda as well as somatic work. I offer three different kinds of treatments to support optimal health for your nervous system and whole body: Warm oil massage, an invigorating treament, and a deep rest treatment.
Abhyanga - Warm oil
Abhyanga is a choreographed, warm oil, whole body treatment. The strokes are rhythmic with a light pressure – with copious amounts of oil from the scalp to the soles of the feet with the intention of covering the body in the healing, grounding oil. Unlike massage, the aim of this treatment is not to “fix” or manipulate the tissues but to cover the body in the healing oil. The rhythmic nature helps the body and mind to relax and enter into meditative state. 60 minutes
Invigorating Treatment
Feeling sluggish, heavy, slow, lethargic, or dull? This is an invigorating, detoxifying, stimulating and warming treatment to bring energy and circulation to the body. This treatment is balancing to the earth and water elements, and brings balance to the heavy, cool, slow qualities of kapha dosha. Great in the late winter/spring or anytime you need some detoxification and invigoration. This treatment begins with Garshana, a vigorous full body exfoliation with raw silk gloves. Next is a salt scrub and clay mask on the back finished with hot towels to warm and detoxify. The third part is a full body oil treatment called Vishesh. It is less oil, deeper tissue and faster paced than Abhyanga – but like Abhyanga it is not a massage-the aim is not at fixing or manipulating tissues-but to apply oil and move energy. Oil and products for this treatment are local, small batch from Solavedi Organics. 90 minutes
Deep Rest Treatment
Feeling spacey, ungrounded, busy brained, exhausted, and in need of deep rest and rejuvenation? This treatment helps to balance the air and space elements with copious amounts of warm oil to ground, calm, nourish and soothe frayed nerves. Balancing to vata dosha.
The treatment begins with a slow, rhythmic form of Abhyanga followed by a gentle oat and rose petal scrub on the back and warm towels. Ending with a mini shirodhara (stream of warm oil on the forehead) and head massage. This treatment is blissful. Oil and products are local, small batch from Solavedi Organics. 90 minutes
Kristen is an Ayurvedic Health Counselor, Somatic Stress Release Practitioner, Resilience Coach, herbalist and host of The Nourished Nervous System podcast. She started studying Ayurveda over 20 years ago while living and volunteering at Kripalu Yoga Institute and it has been a part of her path since. She is passionate about helping her clients to cultivate more resilience in their nervous systems through an Ayurvedic and Somatic approach.
Ayurvedic Health Consultation
Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest systems of whole-person care, rooted in the understanding that health is a state of harmony between body, mind, senses, and spirit. In a consultation, we work together to uncover the root causes of imbalance through an in-depth look at your constitution, daily habits, digestion, sleep, and emotional well-being. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, Ayurveda meets you where you are and offers personalized guidance through diet, lifestyle, herbs, and simple daily practices that honor your unique nature and the rhythms of the seasons.
Areas of focus include:
- Gut health and the gut-brain connection, supporting digestion (Agni) and addressing the accumulation of Ama (the buildup of undigested material that clouds body and mind)
- Mental and emotional well-being
- Sleep and nervous system support
- Seasonal wellness and long-term prevention

Energy Healing and Hypnotherapy

Reiki, Somatic Coaching, Relational Alchemy
I love to create safe spaces for profound healing and discovery through presence, embodiment, and connection with the sacred unknown. I believe in the intrinsic wholeness and wisdom of my clients.
Reiki: Craniosacral Therapy informed. Optional add-on of warm or cool local ocean stones bring in grounded flow. 60 minutes. “The energetic work has been phenomenal. The day after I saw you I felt incredibly light, grounded and joyful. I wish I could bottle that feeling or aura. It was some powerful stuff.” Meg P., Boston, MA
I hold master certifications in Usui Ryoko Reiki, Kundalini Reiki, and Kundalini Seichim. I’m a certified and insured Life Coach, a 150-hour Watsu Provider, and hold a degree in Women’s Wellness and Creativity from UMass Amherst.
Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT)
My work complements the retreat journey beautifully — as the outer world quiets, we turn gently inward together, exploring what is ready to be healed and released. This is an intimate one-on-one experience, with just a few sessions offered during each retreat.
RTT™ (Rapid Transformational Therapy) is a gentle yet deeply effective approach that works with your subconscious mind — the place where your beliefs, memories, and patterns live — to create real, lasting change.
In a session together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back, whether that’s old wounds, deeply rooted beliefs, or patterns that simply no longer serve you. With compassion and care, we work to release what no longer belongs to you and make room for the life you’re longing for.
I also occasionally weave in CCT (Command Cell Therapy) and healing vortex work, when it’s the right fit — inviting your body’s own wisdom into the process, because true healing happens when mind and body are tended to together.
My greatest joy is walking alongside people as they move through what has felt impossible — and watching them step into lives filled with more peace, freedom, and ease.
Healing doesn’t have to be complicated. If this speaks to you, I invite you to reach out — an introductory session is where we begin.
Deborah Fournier is a certified RTT/RTC therapist and coach with a strong background in counseling and education. Her passion lies in helping you achieve clarity in your goals and overcoming any obstacles that may be hindering your progress. Whether you’re seeking personal growth or professional development, she offers various session options tailored to uncover and address your specific challenges. Let’s work together to pave the way for your success and fulfillment.
Sound Healing
Biofield Tuning
Biofield tuning offers us the opportunity to support our Energic body and allow our biofield to flow clearer and with less resistance.
Through this process we can reduce dissonance and free up stuck energy in our biofield. Throughout our lives and those of our ancestors we encounter Physical, Mental and Emotional events that create this dissonance in our Biofield. By finding frozen pockets of energy and melting them with the harmonies of the tuning forks they are then free to flow like water back into our energetic system. Sessions typically last 60 – 90 minutes.
Bill Catania has been trained through the Biofield Tuning Institute founded by Eileen Day McKusick, a pioneering researcher, writer, inventor, practitioner, educator and speaker in the fields of therapeutic sound, the human biofield and electric health. She is the originator of the sound therapy method Biofield Tuning with over 2000 students trained worldwide since 2010.
Group Sound Immersions, Group Energy, or Shamanic Journeying
Maleine began adding sound into her Healing Arts practice in 2013. It started when she had a client on the table who happened to be a MD from India. Maleine was guided by the Angels to chant particular mantras to stabilize her organs. Although initially it was uncomfortable to use her voice, she hasn’t stopped since.
As you are invited into this magical experience of sacred sounds, create expansion, and feel your heart melt. A space where you’ll drift and weave through dimensions with angelic vocal improvisation, ethereal sounds, mantra, toning and harmonies.
While moving through this symphony of sound, get deeper into the recess of your heart with the gentleness of a handmade Deer Drum. Receiving the benefits of vibrational medicine, you’ll feel the restructuring of your DNA on a cellular level.
Accompanied with an assortment of instruments (bowls, chimes, didgeridoo, drums, flute, gongs, tuning forks, rain sticks, rattles, xylophones, and others) your journey will take you adrift through these healing frequencies.
During an intuitive heart-led sound bath, Maleine connects within ethereal realms bridging sound, energy medicine and other modalities.
Release what is no longer needed and allow. Create a space within yourself for new opportunities of life exploration, and gratitude. Release, recalibrate and re-new, your soul will be grateful.
Maleine Gargurevich is a Colombian Peruvian, and first generation American born in New York. She has traveled widely throughout Central and South America, as well as North America. She spent many years in the mountains of Hawaii living completely off grid, where she grew and foraged most of her own food. The way of the forest is her way, adaptive, calming, quiet and resourceful.
At the age of seven she began her journey in connecting with individuals who have crossed over and has been living her life by intuitive guidance for almost two decades now. With this guidance, she has been able to assist herself through brain cancer as well as assisting others on their journeys or personal challenges.
Group Sound Journeys
Jacqueline offers immersive sound journeys that blend the grounding pulse of the Buffalo drum with the luminous tones of quartz crystal singing bowls, the playful resonance of wah wah tubes, chimes, and the rich tones of metal bowls and tuning forks. Each session is designed as a spacious, guided experience where sound becomes a pathway to relaxation, release, and inner alignment.
Jacqueline’s work is deeply informed by sensitivity to grief and all the ways it lives in our bodies. Her sessions are deeply trauma-sensitive and specially curated to meet the needs of her groups or clients.
Through carefully layered vibration and intentional pacing, the soundscape invites the nervous system to settle and the mind to soften, allowing deeper awareness and restoration to naturally unfold. No two journeys are the same—each one is shaped by presence, intuition, and the energy of the moment.
Jacqueline has been studying the power of sound for many years, and has been personally transformed by her practice. A certified sound healer and local to Belfast, Maine, Jacqueline takes an integrated, holistic approach to vibrational healing, weaving together sound, stillness, and attunement to support balance across body, mind, and spirit.
Jacqueline offers 90-minute sessions for $300.
