At Core Connections, our bodywork goes beyond relaxation

It’s a deeply integrative approach that connects the core of the body to the whole system. Sessions combine abdominal therapy, visceral manipulation, acupressure, and a variety of massage modalities to address pain, digestive or reproductive issues, stress, and musculoskeletal imbalances. By focusing on both assessment and individualized treatment, we support the body’s natural ability to heal, restore balance, and relieve discomfort, helping clients feel more grounded, energized, and whole.

We offer support for:

  • Chronic musculoskeletal pain

  • Acute injury/pain

  • Digestive disorders

  • Urogenital problems (e.g., bladder incontinence, menstrual pain)

  • Post-surgical healing

  • Anxiety and stress-related disorders

  • Peri-natal healing

  • Symptom relief for those undergoing cancer treatment or with a history of cancer.

At Core Connections,

our work is guided by our CORE values, the principles that shape how we care for our clients, how we teach, and how we show up in every session.

Compassion

We meet people where they are, with empathy and presence. Whether someone is navigating pain, discomfort, or life’s transitions, we hold space with steadiness and care responding to what’s needed in the moment.

Oneness

We recognize the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit (Qi, Jing, Shen). Abdominal therapy may begin at the core, but it is inseparable from the whole person. Our work honors these connections and the way each system influences the others

Respect

We respect every individual’s choices, wishes, and boundaries. Each body and each story is unique, and we honor every person who entrusts us with their care.

Effectiveness
