Amy Garden
Through deep body listening, acupuncture, and energetic protection rituals,
I support men & women moving through injury, heartbreak, spiritual awakenings,
identity loss, burnout and rebirth. My work focuses on restoring the life force
energy, developing a sense of energy flow in the body, and establishing
healthy boundaries and self-care practices so you can
create a life that is fully alive, resonant and rooted.
