OPTIMIZING YOUR FAMILIES HEALTH THROUGH THE CRANIOSACRAL FASCIAL SYSTEM

Our Venice Office will be open as of February 1st.

Hi, I’m Devon.

I am so glad you are here!

I am a Licensed Massage Therapist (MA106649) who specializes in Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT). The work I do is based off of the teachings of Dr. Barry Gillespie, a periodontist who developed the Gillespie Approach. This approach allows for deep healing by addressing the root cause that lies in the fascia of the craniosacral system.

I fell in love with this therapy for our own family due to its gentle, non-invasive, and effective nature. I have a deep reverence for the body now having over 10 years of experience working with the body in different capacities including personal training, fascial stretch therapy, 500 RYT yoga, Stott pilates certified instructor, and more.

I believe that fascia is overlooked by conventional medicine and is often the missing piece to address you and your family’s health and wellness issues.  I am committed to sharing my practice and knowledge of fascia work in the Venice and Sarasota area.

Happy Healing!

Your body has the innate wisdom to heal.

My goal as a CFT therapist is to help evaluate for fascial strains and help facilitate a deeper level of healing through gentle and non-invasive palpation.

We live in a world where birth trauma is not uncommon and our nervous systems are on overdrive.

Whether you are suffering from a new issue or are frustrated by a chronic condition that has been treated without success, CFT can help you regain you and your family’s health and vitality.

“CFT is an ideal therapy for children as it is non-invasive, gentle, active, and fun! Removing fascial strain from childbirth … and other early traumas have been demonstrated to help with issues of tongue ties, colic, digestive discomfort, hyperactivity, attention deficit, autism, allergies, asthma, earaches, learning disorders, bedwetting, and other childhood ailments.”
