Are you in pain? I can help
Are you experiencing headaches, migraines, jaw tightness or shoulder tension or other sensations that impact your ability to think and accomplish the many tasks of your day?
Or a workaholic with tense neck and shoulders that massage, foam rolling, yoga, ibuprofen, sleeping does not resolve no matter how much or how often you do/use/try it?
Are you irritable and resentful from over-giving, unable to slow down or relax, feeling overwhelmed, unheard, anxious, unhappy, keeping everything inside because there seems to be no one to talk to, to listen to you?
No idea HOW you could feel or be different?
Or you know who you want to be yet have no idea how to grow and change into that version of you?
First, check in with the body
Are you in pain
anywhere
in the body
in this moment?
If the answer is yes, that is a starting point for change.
If the answer is no, I'm glad for your sake. In my career, I have met too many people who are constantly in pain, believing there is nothing that can be done.
I always disagree with "nothing can be done" because I am a believer in prayer AND in miracles.
I believe in the efficacy of CranioSacral Therapy.
I've witnessed the healing from Reiki.
I know the value of having someone to talk to.
Many times over the past 25 years (back to when I was a drug and alcohol counselor) I have heard people say, "I feel so much better. I just needed to get that off my chest."
Talk about it.
Book a free consultation to talk about your current situation, issues, needs and goals. You will receive a tool or intentional thought to use immediately for your current, most critical challenge. I will listen.
The consultation is for gathering information. It serves as an 'intake' so that when we meet for the first session, you are already moving toward feeling better in your body and/or working toward achieving your goal.
I am Aldene Etter, MEd, LMT(WV), Bodyworker, Somatics Practitioner, Intuitive, Healing Facilitator, Coach, Shamanic Practitioner, Reflexologist, Reiki Master, Yoga Teacher, Channel. Medium (to name many of my roles.) For over 20 years, I have helped adults, teens and children FEEL BETTER by addressing pain, discomfort, numbness, tension in the body as well as old patterns of thinking/behaving.
I help people NAVIGATE the STRESS of life and find ways to increase their experience of FEELING SAFE in the body. The results: less pain, more energy, focus and the mental & emotional capacity to accomplish tasks.
In confidential 1 to 1 sessions, I listen. I also teach exercises and tools to slow down at a pace that feels safe. Begin to slow down enough to notice your breath, connect with your body and be in the present moment, to feel more centered and balanced.
Unwinding happens. Releasing happens. Calm, centered, grounding happens. Distant craniosacral integration facilitates an even deeper level of relaxation and transformation. Some clients choose to go even deeper into transformation with SomatoEmotional Release work.
We meet in 1 hour sessions, most of the time. You may sometimes choose a 2 hour session or 3 hour intensive to dive deeper into one of your current issues or patterns, consciously examining and moving toward resolution.
Time and commitment are needed to unwind old patterns. Change can be challenging and difficult. Your mind will want to resist. We will notice that resistance and choose to meet regularly in confidential sessions to disrupt old patterns and create/maintain new ones.
Start imagining the I-feel-good version of yourself.
How do you feel in your body? How are your relationships? What are your opportunities?
Not Sure? I can help you begin to create your vision during the free consultation, 1 hour.
Your time is valuable. The consultation is well worth the hour you commit. It also is a step toward you committing to show up regularly for yourself. Schedule yours here

In the meantime...
Exhale,
Inhale for a count of 4
Exhale for a count of 8.
Notice how you feel in your body.
One of the benefits of working with a somatic coach is having someone who points out AND tracks your successes, with you: Your successes, improvements, achievements, the baby steps on the way to reaching your goals.

"There is the thought, then there is the knowing of the thought.
The difference between 'Being Aware of the thought' and 'Just Thinking' is immense.
It’s enormous.
Normally, we are so identified with our thoughts and emotions that we ARE them.
We have to learn to step back and know our thoughts and emotions are JUST thoughts and emotions.
They are just mental states.
They are not solid.
They are transparent."
-Tenzin Palmo, Buddhist teacher
