Accessibility
Because every person deserves access to therapeutic touch, Touch Ceremony is committed to accessibility. We recognize that economic as well as cultural barriers exist to prohibit certain communities from healthcare and wellness services. To counter this inequity, sliding-scale payment is available to all clients whose sessions take place at my Lockhart home office
Additionally, pay-what-you-can pricing is an option offered to all Black and or Indigenous clients.

Decreased heart rate, reduction of blood pressure, and decreased heart rate variation
Improved lymphatic drainage
Reduced headaches, decreased chronic pain
Increased muscle relaxation and decreased muscle fatigue
Decreased exercise-related delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS)
Decreased tension within muscle-tendon connections
Increased range of motion around joints
Increased fibroblast activity, leading to improved healing
Reduced scar tissue formation, increased scar tissue strength
