Specialties

Thanks for inquiring about Journeys Inward. For 20 years I’ve specialized in helping people resolve their heath related issues so they can get back to enjoying a rich and full life. The specific techniques that I use are CranioSacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, Low-​Force Myofascial Release, Ortho-​Bionomy and Somatic Trauma Resolution. I have found all of these techniques to be highly effective yet gentle forms of bodywork that help to identify and unwind tension patterns that are often at the core of illness, chronic pain or unresolved injury.

Some of the health challenges I treat are:

Traumatic head and spinal cord injuries, Migraines, Repetitive strain, Fertility issues, Pregnancy/​Postpartum care, Whiplash, TMJ, Pre/​post surgical care (including dental work), Digestive Issues, Chronic Pain and Musculoskeletal Issues, Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.

I see clients in Oakland and San Francisco. I welcome any questions and I’m always available for free phone consultations.

Powerful! — the subtlety and clarity of Moon’s work creates deep shifts; through honoring and creating passages for transformation Moon is a true healer. Her professionalism and respect for her clients and her work is immense.

Moon is as intuitive and serious about her healing work as it gets. I came to her seeking relief from jaw tension associated with TMJ, and what Moon discovered beneath the surface of my jaw tension was incredible. She tapped into imbalances throughout my system that were contributing to emotional, postural, and even digestive ailments affecting me.
I cannot recommend Moon highly enough. She is incredibly bright, articulating her observations and intuitions about your body with clarity, accuracy, and insight. The minute her hands are on your body, she is listening and responding every moment. I cannot read minds, but I imagine that the entire time Moon is working on someone’s body, her mind is present with that and only that. Never once did I feel she had hands on me and mind elsewhere.
Powerful, effective, deep work that cannot be described in this small box.
Visit Moon if you are truly ready to look at your body/​mind systems and how and where they are integrating or are needing support to integrate more fully.
You won’t regret it.

Moon is a master at her craft. Her work is deep. It is healing. Incredibly thorough. She has helped me through everything from an incessant eye twitch to emotional turmoil from grieving to pelvic pain. I am so grateful for her care, her skill, and her awareness. I feel so lucky to have her as part of my health care team!

I’d highly recommend Moon to anyone who is in need of spinal help and I’d especially recommend her to someone who has been in a car accident.
Here’s why:
A couple of months I was sitting in the passanger seat of a car when a truck, going 55 mph, slammed into my door. While I didn’t have any broken bones the right side of my body… particularly my rib cage was soar. I started going to a chiropractor and after two weeks I wasn’t getting any better more importantly my back was getting tighter and tighter. I was worried that my back was going to «go out» on me.
One of my friends suggested I should go see someone who specializes in trama therapy. I got on Unilocal and found Journeys Inward and so booked an appointment with Moon.
Within one session I noticed results (not joking). Within a little over a week I was able to start biking for excerise and after a month and a half I was able to run once more.
Moon is great. She doesn’t try to prolong your visits. From day one I’ve felt that her number one focus is to get me up and running again and she really has done that!

I highly recommend Journeys Inward!
I have been to one session with Moon and I feel that it helped a lot in my quest to heal my tailbone pain after giving birth to my son 2 months ago.
She really knows what she is doing. I left feeling very different from when I went in. My shoulders were looser and my back felt more relaxed in general. My tailbone pain had shifted and I could actually feel my muscles in my lower back, as opposed to just having a ball of pain down there for several weeks. Thank you Moon! I will be back soon, I am sure!
+++++
I have since been back and am very happy I found Moon. She is amazing! She addressed some other issues when I was there last and it’s really made a difference for me in my everyday feeling of well-​being!

highly recommended.
give yourself some love by letting Moon lay her hands on you if you have the chance!
i hurt my back playing basketball this weekend. after going to the chiropractor yesterday and experiencing my body not being ready to let go of its tension through the adjustment, i decided to find a cranio-​sacral massage therapist.
i did this because years ago my back went our of alignment and i had what felt like a miraculous adjustment occur via the gentle administrations of a cranio-​sacral therapist… i was blown away by how such a significant shift could happen via such gentle touch… i was hoping for a similar experience with Moon…
blessedly, i was not disappointed! i walked into the appointment with Moon scuttling sideways and hunched over like a hermit crab, and a light-​filled hour later walked out standing up straight. she was so tuned in and sensitive as to what was going on inside of me, and her gentle interventions subtly but powerfully helped my poor knots unwind layer by layer. her energy is clear and warm and yes she is very good at what she does.

Moon has the most amazing touch — and is very understanding in explaining things, getting to the source of pain, and has a reall investment in making her clients feel better and move better. Back in the day when she did massage, she was THE best massage therapist you could find, and now her real gift comes through in the cranial sacral work that I had done. really helped me with major pain I had due to a herniated disc in my neck. Pricey but so worth it

Moon has helped me with back and neck stress– as well as giving me the feeling of really complete rest after the sessions. She is very understanding, intuitive and listens to you and what your body has to say for you. It is a learning experience.
