Cherry Blossom Therapies aims to help beautiful souls on their healing journey, through therapeutic mediums such as Trauma release massage Infused with Cacao Ceremony. Having the courage to be vulnerable and allow someone into your space to help facilitate your healing, takes guts. Having the courage to share our own stories with others, truly turning up as our authentic selves, takes HUGE amount of guts.

No human being can hold everything inside themselves, and the saying 'a problem shared is a problem halved' could not be more true in this modern fast-paced society. I am hear to help you release anything that no longer serves you or that needs closure, to enable you to move on remember how to enjoy your blessings in life once again. 

Hello beautiful ones. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Anna Chantal (Hobbs) of Cherry Blossom Therapies, and I can offer you 3hrs of time dedicated entirely to you in ceremony to honour your body, mind and soul for all that you have endured over your life experience.

I work with you to do this, through the beautiful art / craft of a 3hr massage called La Cerrada or Closing the Bones.

ALL ABOUT YOU:

Let me ask you, when was the last time you were able to put yourself first? When was the last time that you were a priority in your own life? I feel for many of us, it has been at least 4 years and some.

Considering it was around this time 4 years ago in January 2020 that the whole world began to become a pandemic whirlwind of chaos, fear and loss, there has been a lot going on for everybody back then and since.

WHO IS LA CERRADA / CLOSING THE BONES, SUITABLE FOR?

This healing facilitating ceremony, is suitable for women who have or did have a womb and are in need of help to close the doors on previous chapters of their lives to make way for new chapters that will come.

Equally, it is a wonderful way to thank your body for supporting you in life's happenings; after child birth, when you are going through big life changes such as menopause, divorce, bereavement, so much more.

It is a ceremony that we as mothers women of the community can do with our own daughters to mark their transition from child to maiden after menarche. A ceremony that we can utilise as thanks for our Sisters, Aunties, Mothers and Grandmothers to honour their body's stories and the different phases they are in - whether Maiden (pre child bearing), Mother (child bearing), Enchantress (peri-menopausal) or Wise Woman (menopausal).

WHAT DOES IT ENTAIL?

The ceremony is a form of massage using a mixture of gentle hands and beautiful handwoven Mexican rebozo shawls to rock, sift, wrap and massage our most vital parts of our bodies that we have or have had as women; the abdomen, pelvis and womb, the life-giving source of our being, our power-centre. 

HOW CAN LA CERRADA / CLOSING THE BONES HELP? 

***WARNING, POTENTIAL TRIGGER AREAS - MENTION OF MISCARRIAGE, ABUSE, TRAUMA***

Do or did you have a womb? Have you experienced bereavement of a loved one or miscarriage, multiple miscarriages / baby loss? Have you experienced birth trauma or sexual abuse at all? Have you come out of a traumatic relationship or are you transitioning into a new phase of your Life?

Whatever it is that you are coming out of right now, or going into, I am here to hold a safe, comfortable secure ceremonial space for you, to help facilitate you unravelling and letting go of all the past experiences, as well as trauma and pain that your body needs to heal from that no longer serves you.

We hold trauma on our hips in the form of adrenal crystals manifesting on the hip bones. In the massage, we work to break up and release the crystals, thereby releasing past traumas we may unknowingly hold.

We go at your pace; we talk if you wish to talk, we remain silent if you just want the peace and stillness to let any necessary tears flow and the pain or grief to unravel, then we rock you, soothe you, pull you and tighten you back together to allow healing to take place post-massage. Even after the wrapped shawls are undone and released after a short time, the healing effect is felt for weeks afterwards.

SOUL RENOURISHING EXPERIENCE:

After the lockdown years we are still coming out of recovering from - never mind everything that may have happened to you since then - we all need a bit of mothering, nurturing and to be held in safe hands now then. I am here to serve you and provide you with that safe space.

GET IN TOUCH WITH ME. 

Please reach out and talk to me if you would like some more information, and let us see what we can do to help you.

Sending you so much love and peace on your healing journey and congratulations on making it through arguably one of the toughest periods we will experience in our lifetimes. You are stronger than you think you are.

After spending a long time supporting your children, your friends, and your loved ones during the chaos of 2020's covid-19 and likely are still healing from, as well as everything that has followed since, let's make time to support you.

YOU CANNOT FEED FROM AN EMPTY CUP, YOU CANNOT EVEN FEED FROM A FULL CUP, IT HAS TO BE OVERFLOWING SO THERE IS ALWAYS ENOUGH LEFTOVER FOR YOURSELF AS WELL.

Love always, Anna Chantal xx
