As "drops in the ocean", when we heal on the individual level, we are doing powerful work for the human collective, and the planet we can be proud to call home.
philosophy
Your Issues are in your tissues!
Your thoughts and emotions are reflected in your body, and physical changes in your body influence how you think and feel.Â
Now, imagine that every cell in your body holds memories, emotions, and energy—not just around events in your life, but also from the world around you.
Sometimes, upon receiving a bodywork session or engaging in your own Holistretch practice, memories or ideas might come up to be examined. That is the mind-body connection.
Chronic pain and tension and even diseases with no known physical causation could be your body desperately trying to communicate with you! In this way, our pain could be considered a gift - An opportunity to heal something far deeper.
Feel free to check out my meditation videos on Youtube to start freeing your mind, body & spirit today.

FRANCES EVE NIN
"I began dancing the moment I could find my feet, but flexibility in body and mind was always my biggest challenge. I grew up feeling like I didn't matter and was perpetually bullied. In high school, I was the least flexible on the dance team and would wake up at 4 a.m. daily to stretch for hours before school, during school breaks and after school just to fit in with the rest of the team. It taught me the power of consistency and dedication.
My journey into healing touch began in 2012 during my first Burning Man, where I massaged nearly 50 people as a gift to the community, because I enjoyed helping people feel good in their body. Though untrained at the time, their transformative feedback inspired me to pursue this work professionally. I became certified in Reiki that same year, and pursued other certifications like Lomi-Lomi while attending MITT (Mastery in Transformational Training) to expand my emotional body and mentally free myself.Â
I was introduced to Bob Cooley in 2017, and through his program, I discovered the deep intimacy between the mind, spirit and body and the powerful effects of resistance flexibility. I became Level II certified, and found that stretching my massage clients this way yielded far greater results than just massage or passive stretching alone.
As I became a transformational trainer for teens and teaching them to feel their emotions and take responsibility for their thoughts, I started to attend IPSB (Integrative Psychostructural Bodywork) school in Santa Monica to work towards my license.
2020 was when Holistretch was founded and the pandemic taught me something profound: beyond physical healing, people are yearning for deep human connection and don't always know how to move past their fear and anxiety. This realization led to the creation of the Feel Free Beach Event in 2021, where tears, hugs, and heartfelt connection confirmed the importance of this work.
In 2024, I became Yoga Teacher Certiifed with Thaivedic - an Ayurvedic approach to healing the mind and body.
Today, I am endlessly inspired by my clients’ transformations—watching them release scar tissue, regain mobility, and become more of their authentic self. It’s a powerful reminder that true healing lies within each of us when we decide take back our own power."
