Nathan’s journey to bodywork and healing modalities has been many years in the making. Since a child, he has had a strong connection to Yogic sciences and participated in a Yoga Teacher Training in 2013. The experiences he gained from that training opened his eyes to the possibility that the body can heal itself. Nathan then graduated from the International Professional School of Bodywork in San Diego, CA in 2016 with specializations in the Rolf Method of Structural Integration (SI) and Somato- Emotional Integration. Under the tutelage of Rolfer Emeritus, Edward Maupin, Nathan has worked with SI students in Japan on two separate occasions. As a result of assisting these classes, he was shown that the healing effects of SI can transcend culture and language. Nathan provides insight into his client’s foundational body movements by analyzing their gait and posture. Through these analyses he is able to educate his clients about their movements and introduce them to a new realm of effortless motion that works harmoniously with gravity. Creating a sense of grace within gravity is the primary intention of Structural Integration. Clients experience relief from pain, greater ease of movement, and an enhanced awareness of tension patterns within their body. Nathan’s goal with each session is to collaborate with his clients to achieve improved health and balance through focused contacts, movement and awareness.
