Trust is earned in the smallest of moments. It is not through heroic deeds, or even highly visible actions, but through paying attention, listening, and gestures of genuine care and connection.

Patra is truly one of a kind. There are few practitioners I trust to touch my body, and Patra not only touches my body, but my… More soul, too. She creates a safe space and holds it for any process I need to experience - from profound silence to working through something verbally. My sessions with Patra are a treasure. Highly recommend!
My first experience with Patra was excellent. She was welcoming, professional yet warm, and took time to understand my concerns… More and previous experiences. Her technique is incredibly gentle and relaxing yet effective - after my first session, I already notice a lasting reduction in my lower back pain. I'll definitely be back!
Patra is very nice and accommodating. Hernia space is very inviting and quiet. She works within multiple modalities...as it should… More be. She took her time was willing to explain anything and everything. I noticed results before I left, more the next day and I was pain free on the 3rd. I'll be back next week. Thanks a bunch!
Patra is amazing! She is absolutely the most talented Cranial Sacral Therapist I’ve ever been to! She’s helped me so much with… More neck and back pain, systemic joint pain, emotions, and my overall health. I just love her and couldn’t recommend her more!
Patra is a wonderful therapist and has such a calming voice and presence. I appreciate how she fully listens to the cares and… More concerns of her clients and individually addresses their needs. Thank you for all you have done for me!
I have done a few sessions with Patra. I was amazed at the way she is able to tap into your energy using the lightest of touch… More and her gentle demeanor. I experienced profound emotional breakthrough on more than one occasion with her therapy. The release of inner struggle that I wasn’t even aware I was holding onto brought about emotional and physical peace, relieving pain and tension I had been enduring. I highly recommend Patra! Would definitely go to her again.
Had my first experience with Craniosacral with Patra, and it was amazing to feel my leg release some of its chronic tension by… More the end of the session. Patra has a very intuitive touch and checked in often to make sure I was comfortable. She has a very healing presence. The day after our session I felt back to my old self, much of the depression that accompanies persistent pain gone. Her work is intuitive and compassionate. This is the person I would seek out when I really need help with issues related to this work.
I have been working with Patra since she opened her practice. She has helped me through critical times in my life as well as helping… More to keep me balanced and healthy on an on going basis.When i first met with Patra, I was experiencing depression, anxiety, and poor gut health due to stress. She helped me identify, address, and deal with feelings that were triggers.We have dealt with chronic back and shoulder pain, migraine headaches, arthritis and allergies.I am constantly amazed at her abilities to listen, understand, share knowledge and and get into the root of the situation..
Patra’s energy, empathy, ability to connect, and commitment to supporting her clients provides a cocoon of deep healing. Whether… More clarity is revealed slowly or quickly, whether you sense an emotional shift or a tangible physical change, each session is profound. I have experienced such benefits from Craniosacral Therapy in the safety and beauty of Patra’s space as noting an immediate ability to relax and lower my shoulders to the space in which they belong (after many months of not being able to) and being able to drive by the site of a traumatic accident and no longer experience a trauma response, as well as subtle shifts in my energy and personal revelations that unfold in the days following a session.
I cannot say enough positive things about Patra. Just walking into her clinic instantly relaxes me. She begins each session by… More taking the time to discuss any physical or emotional stresses happening in your life at that time, as well as anything positive happening. She always seems to know the right questions to ask in order to get to the heart of whatever it is your body and mind need for each session. Before lying down on a Biomat, she asks if there are any intentions you would like to set for that session. After lying down, she gently evaluates the energy of your body from head to toe, feeling for what needs attention the most. Then, she places her hands around that area. Once again, she asks all the right questions to help you get in touch with what your body needs and release any pent up emotions or pain. She guides you the entire way through- sometimes doing guided imagery or even simply lying in silence- whatever you need. Her hands are like magic. I can hear and feel my body respond to her work... it's truly powerful. I leave her clinic feeling so much better, and can tell my health improves more and more after each session. I am so grateful for Patra and her dedication to helping her patients.
Patra gave me my life back. After four concussions in three years, I had post-concussion syndrome that traditional medical professionals… More had not been able to treat successfully. The prognosis was dim, but Patra was able to succeed where they could not and to alleviate my symptoms to an amazing degree. I am almost symptom-free now. She is amazing.
Patra is a warm and kind person with amazing healing abilities. The experience of treatment is gentle and profoundly effective.… More I highly recommend her!
