I am a Certified Rolfer; I graduated from The Rolf Institute of Structural Integration in Boulder, Colorado in June of 2015. My years of experience as a yoga instructor and practitioner became very helpful in my understanding of the body and how it moves.
Rolfing Structural Integration is a form of manual therapy and movement education that works with the body's fascia (connective tissue) in order to release, rebalance, and realign the entire structure. Dr. Ida Rolf developed the method over 50 years ago. She was a pioneer in the health field, and the first person to understand the important roll that the fascia plays in our bodies. Rolfing SI can help to reduce pain, increase flexibility, improve balance, and is an excellent compliment to many wellness practices.
welcome individuals into a safe, nurturing environment. To provide professional healing alternatives. To encourage awareness and education. To promote balance of mind, body, and spirit. At all times, honouring the body to heal itself. like that of the pearl, is a journey to oneness. And, like the oyster that nurtures this jewel, we create space for the Self to emerge, transforming life's hurts into the joy and lightness of being. Our goal is such that every soul will find it's reflection in the iridescent qualities of the Shimmering Pearl.

I contacted Helga initially for reflexology. She has a welcoming home spa, very clean and not cluttered. She immediately made me feel welcome and comfortable. I found it to be a very relaxing treatment and she doesn't speak during your session. This is nice, because in the past I found therapists to want to talk during my session, and it "ruins" it for me.
She was very knowledgeable with reflexology and I noticed positive results after a couple sessions with her. So happy with her service!Read more
