I believe that we have been given many tools and advantages to help our bodies return to its divine blue print. There is a balance in utilizing resources and our innate ability to heal. When our bodies are given the correct tools and blocks removed, effective and possible lasting changes can take place.

I am passionate about supporting others in their journey to restoring balance physically, emotionally, and spiritually. My focus is in pain and stress reduction, balance for a healthy body, mind and spirit, and empowering each individual on their unique path and journey.

I am passionate about the opportunities we have to support our health. All the modalities I offer I have personally tried and tested. I have my own personal healing journey from using them and am excited to support others in their journey of wellbeing.

I worked in the medical field for 8 yrs as a nursing and medical assistant. I aspired to become a nurse practitioner and music therapist but my path shifted and I am now a Holistic Health Practitioner and massage therapist. I am currently finishing my Therapeutic Musician training. These definitely “fit” my beliefs and abilities with empowering the client to create balance, peace and physical support.

I love music! I own a music studio and teach as well as play the piano, harp, guitar, ukulele, Indian flute, and sing. I enjoy creating meditation and therapeutic music, writing poetry and have started writing a few books. I love cycling, kayaking, and “zen”ning out in nature by the river, rocks and trees. I love reading, enjoy the humor my children bring and love creating things with wood. I strive to embody Kigatsuku & Kaizen.

I have additional training and/or certifications in the following modalities:
Bowenwork, Vibroacoustic, TBM – Total Body Modification, Therapuetic Music, HeartMath, Sound Healing, VoiceBio-Voice Analysis, Holistic and Functional Nutrition, Mindfulness/Meditation, Yoga, Qi Gong, Holistic Herbalism, Holistic Aromatherapy, Ayurveda, Acupressure, Emotion Release, Chakra Balancing, Cranial Sacral, Geriatric Massage, Hot Stones, Lomi Lomi, Medical Massage, Myofascial Release, Perinatal, Prenatal, Reflexology, Reiki, Shiatsu, Sports, Structural Integration, Swedish Massage, and Thai Yoga.

I have been studying and training in natural therapies for over 20 years. Bowenwork fits right in with the work I have been doing and adds a piece to the puzzle. This work has helped ease and eliminate lower back pain, knee pain, insomnia, shoulder pain. It has helped with people’s golf swing by loosening up the muscles in the torso to help the body move with less restriction.
I work with athletes, new mothers, pregnant women, infertility issues, babies, and anybody needing this work.
By combining Iridology and Bowenwork I am able to be very specific as to the needs of the individual client by identifying areas of the body that need strengthening and nurturing. This along with herbs and nutrition can help create a perfect protocol for each individual.

Hello, I am Mishelle Knuteson. I live in central Utah with my husband of 30 years. We are in the stage of life of being empty nesters and enjoying every bit of it. I have two married sons, a step daughter, and so far four grandchildren. I cherish my role as mother and grandmother.

Energy/body work is my passion. My main drive in working in the natural health field is to bring peace, health and vitality to people. When given the right input, the body can heal itself and create balance in people’s lives.

I have been in the holistic health field for over 17 years. Plus while growing up, I had the influence of a self-healing mentality around me. I like to think of myself as an eclectic healer. I have studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, received my master’s degree in Herbology at the School of Natural Healing, and studied many other areas of the healing arts. I take principles and truths from these different systems and bring that knowledge into what will best serve my clients.

I was led to Bowenwork; it entered my path and everything flowed together. My prior training meshes very well with this amazing modality. I love how Bowenwork is gentle yet effective. I am working with people who couldn’t find results in other places and are experiencing the remarkable results of Bowenwork: a frozen shoulder healed in just 3 sessions, knee pain gone after the first session, and a mother who had the first full night’s deep and restful sleep since the birth of her five year old son. Who would have guessed that such a soft touch in specific locations could elicit a healing response through the whole energetic system of the body? LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this work!

I have been told over and over again that I have a gift of bringing comfort and peace into the lives of others. It is my desire that Bowenwork is a way for me to share that gift and hopefully touch the lives of my clients for good.

Andrea has been a practitioner since 2009. She aims to work with the body’s nervous system to make it more balanced and peaceful. She coaches:
1.) Tom Bowen’s 80/20 anti-inflammatory foods contain plenty of water and other enlivening techniques for drinking more good, clean water throughout the day.
2.) The movement of deep breathing in session, walking 20 minutes in the sunshine after a session and each day, and Bowenwork integrative movements after specific procedures.
3.) Waiting in between moves in the calming meditation of a session designed to release stress, working toward a restful night’s sleep for the glymphatic system, and the peaceful assurance that the body can obtain the resources required for self-repair without needing other deep-tissue modalities within five days before/after a session.
4.) What to do in the waiting days can be creative walks, finding purpose, support, love, compassion, humor, play, affirmations, and freedom.
