Rachel Stermer

BA, AHP, LMT

Rachel is consistently inspired by the embodied human experience and rests the foundation of her healing practice on the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda. After earning her BA in Psychology from Tulane University in 2004, Rachel became deeply curious about holistic methods of healing. This led her to India, where she began practicing Yoga and became fascinated with anatomy and subtle energetics. This deepening call to healing prompted her to receive certification in Massage Therapy at The Scherer Institute of Natural Healing in Santa Fe, NM. Rachel has been practicing bodywork for the past 10 years and specializes in Ayurvedic treatments and Deep Tissue work. She studied for two years at The Ayurvedic Institute under Dr. Vasant Lad and assisted him as a Panchakarma technician at his ashram in Pune, India. Each and every day, Rachel is grateful for the practice of Ayurveda as a means to heal herself and to serve the community.
