The Wholistic Healing Experience

Dawn Ramsden, Wholistic Healing ExperiencesWholistic Healing Experiences opened its doors in November of 2016 and ever since they’ve been on a mission to help people move better, feel better, and live better.

Healing is Possible. Founder, Dawn Ramsden, believes that the body is meant to heal. As the wife of an injured veteran, she has experienced first-hand the impact pain has in our lives. Dawn learned advanced therapeutic massage techniques that worked on hundreds of other people, but didn’t provide the same results for him. Then she learned about functional neurology and how this brain-body approach was the key to overcoming chronic pain.

Wholistic Healing Experiences’ team of therapists are life-long learners. They place high value on continued education beyond massage training and work hard to keep up with all of the latest information. Each therapist has an expertise, making the team as a whole one that’s fully equipped to serve your needs. Together they are committed to helping you overcome your pain so you can stop feeling limited–both physically and mentally.
