WHERE ANCIENT TRADITION MEETS MODERN INDIVIDUALIZED CARE
I am an Āyurvedic Doctor and a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist. I work with adults, children and families developing lifestyle, nutrition and therapeutic treatment plans based on individual body types as defined by Āyurveda. Every illness, every expression of pain and every imbalance in health can be linked back to the health of the gut according to Āyurveda, and it is because of this understanding that all therapies I offer begin with a plan to bring your gut health back to a balanced state.
My studies in Āyurveda span over 6 years of formal training in the classical texts of Āyurveda with clinical experience at AIM Hospital in Bangalore India all totaling over 5000+ hours of education. While my knowledge is deeply rooted in these ancient teachings, my approach is devoted to making Āyurveda a viable and complementary system of wellness and health for the world we live in today.
Additionally, my education in holistic medicine includes, Registered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist (RCST) (over 700 hours/2 year curriculum), Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist in CT and NC with 650 hours of curriculum.

WELLNESS, RECOVERY, AND EMPOWERMENT
Working with Samantha has had wonderful and unexpected benefits. There is a lovely synergy between my yoga practice and the care Samantha offers. We speak the same language regarding my pranayama practice as well. Another positive impact of my work with Samantha is the change in my physical health and general well-being. I have seen a significant improvement in medical assessments done by my primary care physician—my cholesterol, sugar levels, etc. On my recent colonoscopy I was told that nothing significant needed attention and I could wait three years between procedures—which have previously been every one or at most every two years.
My journey with Samantha came after a long battle with some skin breakouts in the palms of my hands, psoriasis and terrible dandruff accompanied by hair loss starting in 2019. I had been thru the conventional gamete of medical practitioners, with no solution other than a pill or ointment, multiple doses of steroids, with no results or worsening symptoms. I wanted to try something natural and approached Samantha with my problem. She introduced me to Ayurvedic medicine. Treating my whole body naturally with diet and herbs. She guided me thru every step and explained the Doshas we each have in our body. As I eliminated things from my diet and began to treat my body naturally my symptoms began to fade and eventually were under control. She taught me what to look for in nature that might trigger symptoms again and how to eat seasonally. It has been life changing for me. She is a great teacher and tunes her focus into the individual patients needs. This is what medicine should look like. Whole mind and body care. I would be a victim of Big Pharm if I had not meet Samantha.
