Integrative & Intuitive bodywork sessions to help alleviate tension and promote self-connection.
Why do Bodywork?
I can help with
Physical Pain
Headaches, migraines, neck pain, chronic tension, low back pain, TMJ issues, menstrual cramps, abdominal/GI pain or tightness, joint stiffness, acute injury are all symptoms I can provide care for amongst others.
Mental & Emotional Health
Slow attentive massage & craniosacral therapy can often tap into the emotional realm, providing comfort and insights to help feel more clear in mind and heart.
We are often caught up in the world of giving and doing. Giving yourself an hour or two monthly to simply receive for yourself is incredibly important.
Relaxation & Stress Relief
Massage & Craniosacral work are inherently beneficial to the nervous system and help reduce stress.
Women's Health
Abdominal massage for uterine health can help alleviate menstrual cramps, help soften fibroids, and can provide general ease.
Pregnancy massage & postnatal massage can be incredibly beneficial to mamas as well.
Flexibility & Mobility
Therapeutic massage, assisted stretching, and myofacial release can improve mobility within joins and bigger structures of the body.
Self-Connection
Being touched with loving kindness and deep listening can result in profound spiritual experiences for people. Touch is simple and very, very, sacred.
Meet Anne Marie
Licensed Massage & Craniosacral Therapist
I have been on a journey of health, self-discovery, and body awareness for most of my life. I grew up in northern Minnesota where I developed a deep love for the natural world. Nature has always been my biggest teacher and inspiration. I was introduced to the practice of yoga at age 16 and it influenced my developmental years greatly. Being responsible for my own mental and physical health was empowering and inspiring to me. After teaching yoga for 5 years I realized my favorite part of the class was giving hands on adjustments during savasana. I particularly loved holding people's heads.This led me down the path of healing arts through touch; Reiki, massage, and Craniosacral Therapy. Alongside my professional trainings, I travelled the world for a big chunk of my life and it really opened my heart to the many facets of being a human. I consider myself a Seeker & a Lover- learning about the mystery and truth of life, and finding compassion with the knowledge, is what gives me drive & passion. I now live in beautiful Sandpoint, Idaho, with my Love, Greg, and our sweet pup Tripp.

Craniosacral Therapy
Therapeutic Massage
Somatic Awareness
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle & profound style of bodywork that focuses on the subtle systems of the body. Sessions can be done entirely clothed and tend to bring people into a deep state of relaxation. The whole premise of craniosacral work is that the body inherently knows what it needs and the role of the practitioner is to simply listen to that inherent wisdom. Sessions can be both very still and quiet or contain a lot of movement, which we call "Unwinding." Craniosacral work can help immensely with head & neck pain, jaw pain, insomnia, anxiety, and other forms of physical, emotional and mental distress.
Therapeutic Massage works with the soft tissues to help bring more mobility to the body. Techniques used are anywhere from deep tissue release, myofacial work, trigger point therapy, and swedish massage.
Pregnancy Massage and Postnatal Massage also available.
Sometimes, we need to get back to the basics. How are we breathing? How are we relating with our body? Through a combination of touch and guided exploration, I use my 15+ years of yoga & meditation experience to help individuals reclaim their inner landscape.
