Therapeutic Bodywork Practice

Rowan Farrell-Trombetta, LMBT #3774

"I've received hundreds of bodywork sessions, and Rowan's are still my favorite! Her strong hands, deep knowledge of the body, and her powerful heart energy are a rare combination, creating sessions that heal on many levels." –Anonymous

“Rowan has a gift of sensing just where I am in need. Often I don't realize I have been holding pain or tension in certain areas of my body until she uncovers it during a session. Gift certificates for Rowan's bodywork have passed back and forth between my friends and I for years. She is like our "BodyWork Whisperer". -Andrea A., Asheville, NC

Throughout fourteen years of practice, I have collaborated with clients whose unique concerns are expressed throughout the full spectrum of a lifetime: pregnant & postpartum moms, infants, children, athletes, dancers, elders and hospice patients. My approach is tailored to your individual needs promoting optimal health and well being by gently facilitating the body’s natural ability to self-correct and heal. Each treatment protocol is dictated by your body’s wisdom, verbal evaluation, palpation and observation of movement. Depending on your needs, our work together may draw from the following modalities:

• CranioSacral Therapy
• Somatic Emotional Release
• Lymphatic Drainage
• Pregnancy Massage
• Geriatric Massage
• Neuromuscular Therapy
• Swedish Massage

Rowan has been involved in Bodywork Therapies since 1994 and taught since 2001. She attended the Academy of Somatic Healing Arts in Atlanta, GA becoming certified in Neuromuscular Therapy, Swedish, and Sports Massage. She was then trained through an extensive six year Apprenticeship in Holistic Midwifery with one of the last of the travelling Midwives of Georgia. This profound experience indelibly imprinted her with the teachings of Wise Woman Tradition. The beautiful pregnant and laboring mothers who graced her Apprenticeship honed her skills with first-hand “on-the-job training”. During this time she assisted in establishing the only Holistic Midwifery School in Asheville, NC. She is currently offering the MamaToto Holistic Doula Immersion & Correspondence Course. Skills earned through the Upledger Institute include CranioSacral I, II and Somatic Emotional Release. She brings a creative approach and wide knowledge of the human body to her work, having trained as an Emergency Medical Technician and a Desikachar Yoga Instructor.
