Welcome
Welcome to Healing Hands Therapy Center
You’re here because something within you knows there’s more. Maybe you’re navigating physical pain, chronic tension, or recovery from injury. Maybe you feel burned out, disconnected, or out of alignment with your life. Or perhaps you’re sensing a deeper inner shift — a call to rediscover yourself beneath the stress, roles, and expectations you’ve been carrying. Wherever you’re entering from… you’re welcome here
Meet Heather
Hi, I’m Heather — Occupational Therapist, Certified Hand Therapist, intuitive healer, and founder of Healing Hands Therapy Center.
My clinical background taught me how to heal the body…
but my work with clients revealed that pain often lives beyond the physical. Through years of practice, training, and intuitive development, I began integrating somatic therapy, energy work, and transformational coaching to support healing on every level — body, mind, and soul.
Today, I use every tool in my toolbox to guide clients through recovery, reconnection, and embodied transformation.
The Work I Do
I guide individuals through an Embodied Transformation Journey — helping them release stored physical and emotional tension, reconnect with their authentic self, and live in harmony across body, mind, and soul.
This integrative work blends:
- Occupational and upper extremity therapy foundations
- Physical pain, chronic tension and nervous system healing
- Hands on manual therapy techniques
- Energy clearing and intuitive guidance
- Transformational coaching
- Identity and life alignment support
This work is rooted in my background as an Occupational Therapist and Certified Hand Therapist, while expanding into integrative healing modalities that support transformation across body, energy, and identity. Because true healing happens when the whole system is addressed — not just the symptom.
Don’t Just Heal — Transform
It’s your time to reconnect with your authentic self, restore harmony within your body, and step into a more aligned way of living.
What I Offer
Body & Physical Healing
Physical tension, injury recovery, musician strain, and nervous system dysregulation often serve as entry points into deeper healing work.
Life & Leadership Alignment
For professionals, creatives, and leaders feeling burned out, disconnected, or ready for change.
Awakening & Self-Reconnection
For those seeking deeper meaning, purpose, and reconnection with who they truly are.
The Embodied Musician
Specialized physical therapy helps musicians prevent injuries, improve performance, and recover safely effectively.
Body & Physical Healing
Physical pain, injury, and chronic tension are often the body’s way of signaling deeper imbalance.
I offer specialized support for upper extremity injuries, nervous system strain, and performance-related tension — including focused care for musicians and performing artists navigating the physical demands of their craft.
This work supports healing at both the physical and integrative levels.
Life & Leadership Alignment
You may have built success in your career and life — yet internally feel burned out, disconnected, or out of alignment with who you truly are.
This work supports professionals, leaders, and high-functioning individuals in regulating stress, reconnecting with themselves, and realigning with clarity, purpose, and authentic direction.
It’s not about doing more — it’s about coming back into harmony with who you truly are.
Awakening & Self-Reconnection
Sometimes the call to heal runs deeper than the physical or professional layers of life.
You may feel drawn to rediscover yourself — to release emotional patterns, reconnect with your inner guidance, and explore what’s shifting within you on a deeper level. This work offers a grounded, embodied space to support your healing, awakening, and integration journey — helping you reconnect with who you truly are.
You don’t have to navigate it alone.
The Embodied Musician
Sometimes the call to heal goes beyond just treating pain—it’s about restoring how you move, play, and express yourself as a musician.
You may be feeling tension, fatigue, or recurring injuries that interfere with your performance and creativity. Physical therapy for musicians offers a focused, supportive approach to address the unique physical demands of your instrument—helping you build strength, improve technique, and prevent future injury. This work creates a space to reconnect with your body, refine your movement, and perform with greater ease and confidence.
You don’t have to navigate recovery or performance challenges alone.

Client Testimonials
“Before I went to Heather, I had terrible pain in my wrists from playing piano and clarinet. I went to multiple doctors and not one could discover what was wrong with me. One doctor immediately recommended carpal tunnel surgery. In just a few short visits, Heather almost completely took away all of my pain through strength exercises. She knows exactly how to fix any problem and will not stop helping you until the problem is solved 100%! She is a miracle worker! Heather is a wonderful OT and is more than happy to learn more about your condition to help heal you!”
Megan C. (musician)
“I highly recommend Healing Hands to all musicians or non-musicians who are dealing with hand or arm pain. Heather is one of the most thorough and well educated therapists I’ve ever worked with. Because of her specific musical background, she is very knowledgeable about how the strain of being a professional musician (intense practicing for hours and many hours of rehearsal and performance) can put stress on your muscles and joints. She knows exactly how to attack these areas and change some unhealthy habits (posture, tension in hands, etc.) to release this pain and start on a track to painless playing. She also gives great exercises to help with stretching and get at the source of the issue. I highly recommend Heather! She is an incredible person and will help you tremendously.”
Sarah H. (musician)
“Four days before I was scheduled for one of two surgeries – one to my L thumb and wrist and then later the same to my R hand, I called Heather and booked an appointment for a final 2nd opinion … Needless to say, with surgery cancelled immediately after- now, almost a year later and religiously undergoing the amazing Handtherapy that Heather offers, I have almost full use of my thumbs back and Carpal Tunnel gone! “Healing Hands” is what she did for me. I thank her from the bottom of my heart!”
