Dawn Hunter

Cranial Sacral Therapy

Cranio-Sacral therapy (CST) is a gentle effective way to release tension and asymmetry in the tissues in the head, spine and sacrum and throughout the body. Infants, children, pregnant women, adults, and elderly can all benefit from CST. Dawn offers intra-oral and sinus treatments.

The focus of cranio-sacral therapy is on locating areas of strain and imbalance and then using the gentlest of pressure to release and rebalance them. Physical and emotional issues can be addressed.

Dawn’s special emphasis is on Infant/Maternal care throughout the childbearing year, including CST for maximizing preparation for labor and delivery, post birth mother/baby wellness, and breastfeeding and tongue-tie issues.

Dawn is a Tummytime! tutor and offers classes and individual sessions.

Marma Therapy

Marma therapy promotes subtle energy cleansing and rebalancing of our bodies systems. Opening the subtle channels with a light touch over the marma points with specific transdermal marma creams, this therapy is subtle and profoundly relaxing. Marma points are the gateways in the body where the body and mind communicate. By stimulating the marmas, blocks due to stress and improper diet can be dissolved, awakening the intelligence of the mind body connection. Marma therapy helps balance the doshas, increase digestive fire improving digestion, reduce ama (toxins), promote energy, and rejuvenate our body and mind.

Integrative Massage

Massage strengthens the immune system, stimulates circulation of blood and lymph, releases feel-good endorphins, and helps soft tissue maintain suppleness. Infants, children, and adults of all ages benefit from therapeutic touch.
Dawn blends her diverse training to best address your individual issues.

Scar Tissue Therapy

Scar tissue therapy helps in reducing/relieving pain and discomfort due to thickened tissue post surgery, from chronic inflammation, or from old and new injuries. This effectively helps scar tissue reintegrate into the healthy fascial web and helps to reestablish healthy nerve function.

Effective tissue treatment is possible for the following:

Caesarean scars, hip or knee replacement, sprained ankles, mastectomy surgery scars, and scar tissue from old or new injuries.

Flower Essence Consultation

Flower essence therapy works on an energetic level to restore the equilibrium of the body, mind, and spirit. The particular specialty of flower essences is the realm of emotions and attitudes, which exert a powerful influence on health and ill health. As Edward Bach, an English physician and homeopath and the father of flower essence therapy, stated it, “Behind all disease lie our fears, our anxieties, our greed, our likes and dislikes.” By addressing underlying psychospiritual issues and promoting energetic shifts in the mind and emotions, flower essences promote a return to health on all levels.

Every single massage I have had with Dawn Hunter has been the most healing and blissful experience I have encountered. My mind is at peace, and my body seems to go to another level of comfort and deep healing. Stress evaporates, I smile at life. A kind of blissful rest takes over, the body surrenders effortlessly to the healing hands, FEELING that healing is taking place. There is love and caring in the touch — which causes healing at a deeper level. Every massage seems like a miracle. The body-mind seems to become transformed into a peaceful state of pure bliss. Dawn’s unique gift is her healing touch. Chiropractors have only helped me a little. Dawn’s techniques have helped me enormously. It is a blessing to have her work on one’s body — for the experience penetrates deep within the mental and the physical, healing both levels of mind and body. Every massage session is an experience in healing at the most subtle level. One emerges with bliss and peace in the heart and mind. God bless you, Dawn.”

It is a wonderful feeling when a person is so present in what they are doing, that it invites the other (client) to drop into that deep peace, where the body/mind/spirit can truly repair and rejuvenate itself. I have received Marma Therapy from Dawn and I am very grateful for getting those wonderful experiences, of dropping into a very deep feeling of peace, from her presence.”
