If there is such a thing as a healing touch, Miriam has definitely got it. I've seen a large number of different body workers over the years, but none as gentle, sensitive, and intuitive as Miriam. She can sense exactly where the knots and tensions are, and knows how to get them to relax. Not only do her sessions feel marvelous, but I always function more effectively afterwards and get a lot more work done. Highly recommended!

Miriam is a true healer. Her body work has helped me physically and mentally. I recommend her to anyone needing body work she is warm, caring, compassionate and kind. I have also had her to my house for a tarot reading with 6 of my good friends. It was very interesting and we learned so much about ourselves and each other. Looking for something different to do with your friends over the holidays I recommend a tarot party with Miriam.

Miriam does body work with energy work at the same time. She's able to intuit what type of energy is affecting your physical body. For example, she might say something like ".there is fear and anxiety that's causing your psoas muscle to be tight. Let's try to release that fear energy." Her sessions have always done amazing improvement for me. In addition to all of that expertise, Miriam has also created an entire new modality that joins Tarot, Astrology, Numerology, Yoga, and Polarity. It's stunning how she has discovered the way all of these ancient and modern perspectives of the world connect and help each other. And help us. So if you need bodywork, or info as to where your life is right now, or advice on how to work with your physical and energetic body, Miriam is one of the best people to work with.

Miriam helped me work several life affecting changes. Her intuitive interpretation of the cards and of me was right on! I've recommended her to friends who have been equally blown away.
