"Your hand opens and closes, and opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and co-ordianted as bird wings."- Rumi

Bodywork Offerings

Devon Carter is a Certified Massage Therapist with 35+ years experience in the field of Mind/Body/Spirit integration both as a teacher and in private practice.

Devon offers 60 or 90 minute sessions at her office in San Rafael California. Her bodywork approach encourages people to connect with their intrinsic movement toward wholeness through Craniosacral Therapy, Orthopedic Massage, Soft Tissue Mobilization, Acupressure, Somatic Awareness and Mindfulness practices. 

Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle, light touch therapy based on the principals of cranial osteopathy. It uses subtle movements to unwind holding patterns in the body and restrictions in the craniosacral system. Releasing these restrictions improves nervous system function and has a positive impact on all other tissues of the body. For more information about Craniosacral Therapy please contact the Upledger Institute http://www.upledger.com/ 

Orthopedic Massage and Soft Tissue Mobilization are an advanced system of massage and manual therapy that are a profoundly relaxing, efficient and effective treatment for acute and chronic pain caused by soft tissue imbalance. These are the foundational techniques used in the Hendrickson Method as developed by Dr Tom Hendrickson. For more information about the benefits of these techniques contact the Hendrickson Method http://www.hendricksonmethod.com/three-techniques-of-hendrickson-method/

Acupressure is a light touch therapy that uses finger pressure on the same system of points and meridians as acupuncture only without needles. Gentle pressure on specific acupressure points increases relaxation, and improves circulation of both the blood and the body’s life force energy to aid in healing.
