Susan Popiel

Being a native Tarheel, I began my training at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill obtaining a BS in nursing. I have served in healthcare for over 25 years as an RN and focus on the use of natural, integrated methods to assist clients to regain and maintain health and wellness. My study of natural healthcare includes Clinical Acupressure, Process Acupressure, Zero Balancing, Craniosacral Therapy, guided imagery and journaling. I am certified in Clinical Acupressure and Craniosacral Therapy and am completing certification in Process Acupressure and Zero Balancing. (See the Therapeutic Bodywork page for more information about specific modalities.

With an awareness of the sacredness of each person, I approach individual therapy sessions with a goal to guide and facilitate the client in the steps that he/she is ready to make toward health and well being.

In addition to providing Therapeutic Bodywork, I teach Chakra Tai Chi, a movement meditation to support grounding, centering, awareness, and personal growth.

Also, I will be presenting Seva Stress Release Workshops. Seva is an Acupressure protocol which can be self administered to facilitate relaxation and relieve stress. The domino effects of that include improved sleep, better concentration, and improved overall well-being. For class dates and times, see the Calendar and Workshops pages.

I look forward to meeting you.
