A WOMAN'S HEALTH EXPERIENCE

JENNIFER CALDWELL-ROSSY, RMT, RYT

 Sacred Body Holistic Health integrates manual manipulation, mindful practices and somatic experiences to help women in perimenopause and menopause improve chronic pain with a specialty focus in digestive health. Jennifer believes that when you master your nervous system, release specific visceral and fascial restrictions and start to truly listen to your body you can make transformative changes in your health & wellness

even if you have suffered for decades!

A Healthy Gut is the Foundation to a Healthy Life!

The human gut includes a variety of organs, accessory organs and what is known as "your long tube". Within these areas of your body lies 70%-80% of your immune system (ability to fight disease and infection), the production of various neurotransmitters (that help with digestion, mood, cognition, feeling rewarded and motivated), your microbiota (which interacts with your nervous system) and the muscles that help move the food you eat for absorption of nutrients, vitamins and minerals.

​

So the importance of a well functioning gut is imperative to your overall health, metabolic processes, hormone health, vitality, sleep, daily energy, mood and more!

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that is characterized by an intolerance to gluten and causes the body's immune system to "attack" it's own bowel tissue. It can cause pain, distention and permanent damage if gluten is ingested into the system.

Diverticulitis

Diverticulitis is characterized by tiny, grapelike pouches or sacs (diverticula) along the outer wall of the colon that become inflamed. If the pouches get blocked or filled with stool it can lead to infection and more serious complications.

This condition is characterized by how our emotional health affects the state of our gut and the balance between the enteric nervous system and one's personal microbiota.

Hi, I am Jennifer!

As a Registered Massage Therapist and Registered Yoga Teacher in Ontario with over 2 decades of therapeutic experience I have furthered my learning of human neuroanatomy and treatment through the Upledger Institute International in Craniosacral Therapy. 

 

After acquiring Craniosacral Therapy Practitioner Levels 1 & 2, as well as specialty training in Visceral Manipulation (currently completing) and releasing the visceral layers of post-traumatic gut disorder through manual manipulation, yoga and breathwork (completed spring 2025) it has become my passion to help women who suffer with chronic digestive pain as I know first hand how this can drastically affect your quality of life!

 

Using a somatic approach that includes, breathwork, yoga, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, fascial release and deep listening to the body you CAN transform what healing is possible. â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹

What is Your Mind-Body Connection

The mind-body connection refers to the interconnectedness between how you think, feel, and behave.

It is a two-way street where your mental state(s) can affect physical processes, and physical conditions can impact your mental state(s).

When it is understood that your mind and body are not separate entities but rather parts of you designed to work together as a whole system, then you can embrace a whole new way of approaching total physical health and well-being. 

When you practice moving inwards with love, compassion, curiosity and a sense of really listening to your body.... it is amazing to discover what healing is possible. 

Love & Light,
Jennifer
