Craniosacral therapy is a gentle, hands-on technique that focuses on assessing and improving the flow of cerebro-spinal fluid around the brain and spinal cord. This therapy is commonly used for reducing stress and tension-related disorders, managing headaches and migraines, addressing chronic pain, and enhancing relaxation and emotional well-being.
Using light touch to detect and release restrictions in the craniosacral system, our practitioners are dedicated to promoting relaxation, relieving tension, and enhancing the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

Tabatha is a board-certified New York State licensed massage therapist since 2013, a reiki master practitioner since 2021, a Birth doula since 2018, and is now expanding her passions to include craniosacral therapy.
Tabatha is trained in craniosacral therapy 1 & 2. After seeing how much her son benefitted from craniosacral therapy, and noticing that there was a lack of providers on Long Island who offered craniosacral therapy, Tabatha decided back in 2022 to pursue her CST-D certification. She views CST as a way to bridge the gap between phyiscal and emotional trauma, helping to release the way that mental and emotional trauma manifest physically.
As a seasoned massage therapist, her specialties include prenatal & postnatal massage, medical massage, post-surgical, post mastectomy oncology massage, lymphatic drainage, sports massage, stretching, deep tissue work, Swedish massage, Asian bodywork (amma) with acupressure points for various diagnoses.
She is also a mom of 3 plus two step kids. They range in age from 22 to 18 months. She has a unique view of motherhood as her children were each born in a different decade of her adult life!
In her spare time she loves fitness, running, painting and spending time with her family & friends. She welcomes all clients young and old, male and female from all different walks of life.
“Helping to heal people physically, & energetically helps me to simultaneously heal myself.”
