Working with Joni was the best part of 2022… she helped me through complex health issues with compassion and patience. She listened to me when it felt like nobody else believed me. I worked through the five elements with her and then added another when I broke my wrist a year later. I missed her sessions when I stopped with the regular ones.

I though Shiatsu would be too strong for my osteoporosis but Joni knew exactly what she was doing. She treated me very well. She helped me with pain management and mobility.

Joni’s work is deep and quite strong when it needs to be. Sometimes she’s very light and I love that too. She seems to read my situation very accurately and knows exactly how much pressure to use. Her help through a dark depression was the best help I could have hoped for. Way better than my anti-depressants… I looked forward to her sessions. They kept me going. Leslie H.

Shiatsu is the BEST bodywork! They do the whole body. They believe in treating the emotions as well as the muscles! Joni was my best massage therapist when I needed some extra kindness and emotional/physical support. I can’t tell her how grateful I am for just her being so cool and kind and wise.

Joni’s sessions felt deeply nourishing and kind. She was like my mother for an hour. So the deep work always landed without defensiveness or resistence.

I worked through some very old trauma with Shiatsu sessions. Joni listened with her hands and thumbs and also with her kind eyes. We laughed we cried. I don’t feel like I have that lump stuck in my throat anymore. I had that feeling for a very long time and she got rid of it.

I was integrating a lot from a year of deep exploration and plant work. Joni was like landing back at home. The effects of her work would last for a week. I’d feel like I was back to my normal self. Then when I started to feel off I would go again for more “medicine”. She gave me hope and a lot of homework! All in the form of specialized yoga and medical chi gung which I have to say helped the work hold in between sessions. Sometimes sessions felt like a lifetime of weight lifted off my shoulders. My posture is so much better! My chest is open and my bones are aligned.

I worked with Joni for a year to get over a frozen shoulder but we went DEEP. My frozen shoulder resolved after about four sessions and didn’t come back. She understands neurodivergence, Hypermobility, ADHD and all the physical reprecussions of those conditions.

I now go to her for private yoga just to keep things in place.
