Ali offers intelligent body therapy for healthy posture and lasting pain relief. Structural integration is a system of deep-tissue bodywork and movement re-education. Based on the pioneering work of Dr. Ida Rolf, structural integration brings about lasting improvement to your posture, your movement, and your ability to adapt to the changing demands of daily life. Structural integration seeks root causes, rather than addressing symptoms. Our habits and hobbies, past injuries, surgeries and emotional stresses all affect how we stand, sit and move. Over time, we develop body-wide patterns of compensation that create chronic discomfort, make us prone to injury, and guzzle energy just to hold ourselves up against gravity. Ali addresses restriction in the fascia (the connective tissue that holds every cell together), nerves, arteries, and sometimes organs to unwind global patterns that contribute to the symptoms you are experiencing. As your body recovers its natural length, freedom and balance through manual therapy, Ali guides you through simple awareness exercises that help you use and maintain that newfound freedom.

19 Princeton St., Medford,, Massachusetts [MA] 02155 United States • 617-710-7860 • bluelotusreflex@gmail.com
Reflexology is a non-invasive, complementary health practice that involves alternating thumb and finger techniques on the feet, and is based on the principle that there are reflex areas on both feet that correspond to all the glands, organs, and parts of the body. A session lasting 50 minutes facilitates deep relaxation, improves blood supply, promotes unblocking of nerve impulses, and helps bring the body systems back into balance. With my portable recliner, I can make house visits or offer sessions at Blue Lotus Reflexology in Medford. Christal is a certified reflexologist trained in the Ingham Method of Reflexology. She is also proficient in Thai-style foot reflexology and was certified at the Wat Po Traditional Medical School in Bangkok, Thailand.

Please check out my website here: https://www.fallingwaterdoulaservices.com
I offer holistic, individualized doula support for birth, postpartum, and reproductive loss.
I am here as a pathway to help show you your own power. You are strong. You are love and you are loved. With my support, you can have the birth and postpartum experience that you desire and you can thrive. Navigating the health care system is really hard and I can be a voice of advocacy for you and an invaluable resource.
Your care and comfort measures will be personalized for you. I love the moments when I am working with a family and I see that something clicks for them and they realize how amazing they are! I am here to help hold you in one of the most vulnerable, joyful, difficult, and incredible times of your life.
My long term goal is to have an impact on marginalized communities. Doula care, especially support during the postpartum period, is seen as a luxury to many people, because it has become more inaccessible. I aim to serve all families and parents, especially those that are not always able to get the care that they need. I am always very mindful of the various identities that I hold and my clients hold and keep those in mind as we get to know each other. I am always open to sliding scale payments as well for my clients. -

Our bodies have an inherent capacity to heal, and I help clients find the right herbs to support that capacity. While I support clients with any health conditions, I work primarily at the intersection of emotional and gut health — when mood is affecting gut health and vice versa. This brain-gut connection can show up through a wide variety of symptoms, such as acid reflux when stressed, or blood sugar spikes and crashes. I support clients in improving the communication between these two systems so that the whole person can thrive.
