Anni Powell: Craniosacral Therapy | The Healing Grove Podcast

The Healing Grove Podcast

This week I would like to introduce you to Anni Powell.
Anni Powell is a registered nurse, lifetime musician, CranioSacral therapist, and nature lover. She has practiced as an RN since 2011 with a background in cardiac intensive care, progressive step down care, family medicine, and currently serves as a hospice nurse, certified CranioSacral therapist, and music performer. She began studying CST in 2020 with the Upledger Institute, opened her own practice in 2022, and completed the CST techniques certification in 2023. She continues to study with the institute and with personal mentors to refine the art of CST and SomatoEmotional Release, and also assists with CST classes. She has found over the years, after embarking on her own healing journey, that wholeness and health are addressed on all levels - physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. All parts affect the whole. Looking within to do the work with compassion, curiosity, and a dose of bravery, will eventually reveal everything needed for change, and a unique, personal prescription for wellness!
