WELCOME TO LAURA LIN
HEALING ARTS
At Laura Lin Healing Arts, I help people heal on a deeper level, by connecting them with their authentic self. Many answers we are seeking are held in the wisdom of our bodies. I intuitively guide people to come into listening through a body, mind, and spirit approach.
Perhaps you have chronic pain, or you want to lose weight. Perhaps you are dealing with a difficult situation in life, or going through one of life’s transitions. You may have tried some things with limited results.
Come experience the art of healing with me as I help you turn your challenges into successes. When I see my clients transform their pain into joy, their depression into hope and vibrancy right before my very eyes, this motivates me to keep developing myself and my work to serve you.
Each customized treatment is an integrated healing session incorporating modalities such as Somatic Breathwork, Ayurveda, Thai Massage and Reiki. As you relax, release, and restore, answers arise leading you to true, profound and lasting healing.
I am honored to serve you.
Please see below for more information about my offerings in Ayurveda, Somatic Breathwork and Somatic Bodywork. Please contact me for a complimentary 15 minute consultation to identify your goals and create a custom package
for you.
SERVICES
SOMATIC BREATHWORK
Somatic Breathwork is a breathwork technique that helps to clear out stuck stress, tension and trauma that is held in the body. Essentially, this breathwork frees restrictions in the body, expanding your container to feel and to be with a greater range of emotions. This 60 minute treatment begins with a centering and leads into Somatic Breathwork. It is followed by a gentle transition out to journal or share your experience as I hold a safe space for you to be, expanding into the truest version of yourself.
ABHYANGA
Abhyanga is a light, rhythmic full body massage using sesame oil and herbs to deeply nourish and protect the skin. This 80 minute treatment is especially calming for the nervous system. Warmed oils penetrate the skin, stimulating circulation and moving toxins out of the body through the lymph system. This beautiful treatment supports immune system function and restores your body, mind and spirit.
SOMATIC BODYWORK COMBO
This 80 minute treatment begins with 40 minutes of Somatic Breathwork followed by 40 minutes of bodywork/energy work: Thai massage/foot reflexology, Reiki, Abhyanga face/feet massage. Somatic work opens and relaxes the body, removing restrictions so that you may effectively release deeply held physical tension and emotions. A transformational journey for body, mind, and spirit awaits you.

​
Laura’s Swedish massage is strong and deeply relaxing. Her knowledge of the body truly shines as she naturally finds hidden tensions and deeply works through the knots with both strength and ease, leaving your body in a state of peace.
Laura’s Thai massage is another deeply relaxing asset. Especially for athletes or anyone with chronic tension. She was able to relieve a deep hip flexor tension which I had been feeling for a long time. She does a wonderful job of mobilizing stiffness in joints and opening up the range of motion in tight areas."
"The combination of Laura’s gentle and warm energy, with her strength and expertise makes her a powerful masseuse.
I have been teaching Pilates for over 10 years and can appreciate and recognize talent within bodywork, and Laura is top notch.
I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking to connect to their bodies and walk away feeling completely renewed and refreshed."
