Julia Hyndman
Hello, my name is Julia Hyndman, and I own Tulip Tree Healing Arts Collective. We operate at the intersection of creativity and wellness, offering massage, coaching, ecstatic dance, hula hoop classes, and art workshops.
I myself am an artist, bodyworker, and coach and the main one-on-one service I offer is somatic Thai bodywork. This work combines the practice of Thai massage and somatic coaching.
Thai massage, also called nuad borarn, is considered the art of sacred healing touch. It is a branch underneath the umbrella of Traditional Thai Medicine. This ancient practice originates from Thailand, where I just spent a month extensively deepening my studies of the practice as a whole. This is my 9th year as a bodyworker, and nothing could have prepared me for how humbling and life changing it would be to study in Thailand with lifelong masters.
In a private 1-on-1 session, I will cater it to fit your needs. The beauty of this work being on the floor with clothes on, is that we can seamlessly shift and adjust the appointment to exactly what you need, no two appointments are the same. I do have a table, if the floor is inaccessible to you. I also offer coaching on its own, if you would rather not be touched, or would like to do somatic coaching through zoom from the comfort of your home.
My Story
My path began as a self-healing journey. I went through the majority of my life with internalized fear and pain. I also had this deep desire for expanded freedom of expression and to reach my full potential in body, speech, and mind. After getting a BFA (Bachelor's in Fine Art), my heart led me to the study of Traditional Thai Massage and Somatic Bodywork. From there my whole life changed, and I knew I wanted to be a facilitator for others to feel as good and complete as I did receiving this work.
I am an LMT (Licensed Massage Therapist) and I have worked in a spa and clinical settings. I am also certified in Somatic Stress Release Technique, Expressive Arts, Usui and Holy Fire Reiki, as an Empowerment Coach, a Red Tent Priestess, and a Hoop Love Coach.
I would be ecstatic to work with you and show you the beauty of this approach. What I ask, is that you are willing to take self-responsibility and be an active participant in your journey. I can give you the tools you need and help you feel much better in an hour or two, but it is up to you to take the change with you and allow it to transform your life. I hope to see you on my mat soon!
