Heather has the gift of intuity. She knows exactly what your body needs when she lays her hands on you. It is the highlight of the month when I have my appointment with her. I have been a client and friend for over 10 years. My career is busy and fast paced, Heather makes it possible to continue in my field. I am so looking forward to being back on her table.
