Work With Me

​

Healing is not one-size-fits-all.

 

Whether you are seeking personalized yoga therapy support, intentional movement classes, wellness education or collaborative programming, Root to Heal offers grounded, adaptable services designed to support real people in real life.

 

The goal is not perfection.

The goal is creating sustainable well-being, nervous system support and practices that help you feel more connected, resilient and supported over time.

 

Private Yoga Therapy

A personalized, therapeutic approach to yoga designed to support your unique physical, mental and emotional needs.

 

Yoga therapy sessions integrate movement, breathwork, nervous system regulation, restorative practices and lifestyle support in a way that is individualized, adaptable and grounded in your goals and lived experience.

 

Unlike a traditional yoga class, yoga therapy is designed specifically for the individual. Practices are thoughtfully adapted based on your physical abilities, stress levels, health concerns, nervous system patterns and overall readiness.

 

Sessions are available both virtually and in person, allowing support to be accessible whether you are local or located elsewhere. Virtual yoga therapy can be especially supportive for individuals navigating busy schedules, chronic illness, fatigue, mobility limitations or seasons of life where leaving home or adding additional stress to the calendar feels overwhelming.

 

This flexibility allows the work to truly meet you where you are.

 

This work may support:

• Stress, burnout and nervous system dysregulation

• Anxiety and overwhelm

• Chronic disease and lifestyle support

• Recovery and restoration

• Mobility limitations and adaptive movement needs

• Persistent tension and stress-related symptoms

• Life transitions and emotional exhaustion

• Building sustainable wellness practices

 

Because meaningful change and therapeutic support take time, yoga therapy is offered as a foundational 6-session program designed to create consistency, build awareness and allow practices to evolve alongside your needs.

 

The Foundational Yoga Therapy Program

Includes:

• One 90-minute intake and assessment session

• Six individualized 60 minute yoga therapy sessions

• Personalized supportive practices and recommendations

• Ongoing adaptation based on your goals and needs

• Virtual or in-person session options

 

Programs are typically completed over 6-10 weeks depending on scheduling and individual support needs.

 

No prior yoga experience or flexibility is required.

 

Investment: $795

 

Additional sessions and continued support options are available as needed.

Align + Restore 

​

Small Group Classes at MAVE Movement Studio in Toledo, Ohio

 

An intentional, alignment-focused class designed to support and elevate your strength training practice while creating space for restoration and recovery.

This class is ideal for individuals who:

• Strength train regularly

• Feel tight, overstimulated or physically depleted

• Want to improve mobility and movement quality

• Crave recovery-focused movement without pressure

• Are looking for a calmer, more intentional wellness experience

Evidence-informed wellness support integrating clinical knowledge with lifestyle-focused care.

 

Through PharmToTable, Michelle offers select virtual wellness consultations for individuals seeking a more personalized, root-cause-oriented approach to health and well-being.

This work emphasizes understanding the whole person while supporting sustainable, realistic changes that can complement traditional medical care.
