Tracy Heron-Moore, LMP

Tracy graduated from the Port Townsend School of Massage in 2007, and from the California School of Herbal Studies in 2002. Tracy's work is grounded in her training in Swedish and Deep Tissue massage, and deeply influenced by her studies of  Western Herbalism, Aromatherapy, Flower Essences, Hydrotherapy, the 5 Element System, and Ayurveda. Her massage style is best described as "intuitive deep tissue", and she delights in how each session is a new, dynamic experience: our bodies (and minds, and spirits) are really not ever the same today as they were yesterday, or will be tomorrow. She sees her role as a facilitator, and loves helping her clients find their own unique healthful balance in their bodies.  For more information about Tracy, please visit her website: www.thistleandmoon.net.
