OUR VALUES
About the Owner
What is Manipura?
The name Manipura comes from the Sanskrit “mani,” meaning gem, and “pura,” meaning city. The English name for Manipura is solar plexus or navel chakra. Manipura is known as the City of Gems, which helps us think of Manipura as our own personal treasure center of power and well-being. It is also believed to have a magnetic effect and an attraction from the universe to ourselves. A healthy Manipura chakra is known to give a clear sense of who we are and what our purpose is. This self-effulgent gem that shines by its own light is located in the navel area. This chakra governs our gut intelligence and our ability to see clearly. Manipura is associated with the element of fire, and it represents purpose, courage, and self-confidence. When this chakra is out of balance, it affects our judgment, our sense of being, and, ultimately, our health.

She specializes in myofascial and trigger point release, joint mobilization and oscillation, Swedish and deep tissue massage, as well as lymphatic drainage and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. In general, these techniques enhance the pliability of tissue, separate adhesions between damaged fibers, and break up scar tissue, freeing the body of pain.
