I am a licensed massage therapist with more than 25 years of experience helping clients restore balance, reduce tension, and support the body’s natural healing process. I approach every session with a combination of clinical knowledge, intuitive insight, and collaboration with each client to create care that is both personalized and effective.

My goal is to provide a therapeutic experience that not only relieves physical discomfort, but also promotes relaxation, nervous system support, and overall well-being.

My work focuses on helping release tension, restrictions, and energetic blocks that can interfere with the body’s natural flow and healing abilities. I specialize in:

• Lymphatic drainage

• Swedish massage

• Myofascial release

• Craniosacral therapy

• Esalen-inspired massage techniques

Each session is tailored to the individual and may combine multiple modalities to best support the client’s needs and goals.

I was born and raised in the southwest suburbs of Chicago, where my husband and I raised our four children. Later in life, I returned to school and earned a degree in philosophy, with a concentration in religion and science, reflecting my lifelong interest in the connection between mind, body, and healing.

My journey into massage therapy began through my own personal healing experience. After experiencing the positive impact therapeutic massage had on my health and well-being, I felt called to study the field professionally so I could help others experience those same benefits.

Do you feel stuck in cycles of chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, fatigue, or unresolved trauma? Are past experiences continuing to affect your relationships, emotional well-being, or ability to fully engage in life? My goal is to help clients reconnect with themselves, release patterns that no longer serve them, and move toward greater balance, resilience, and authenticity.

As a somatic trauma therapist, yoga instructor, and Reiki practitioner, I take a compassionate, body-centered approach to healing that supports the connection between mind, body, and spirit. I believe the body holds profound wisdom, and through intentional therapeutic work, it is possible to restore a sense of safety, empowerment, and emotional freedom.

I believe healing is not about “fixing” oneself, but about learning to understand, honor, and integrate every part of who we are. Through movement, mindfulness, nervous system support, and therapeutic connection, I help clients develop personalized tools and coping strategies that support long-term healing and growth.

Born and raised on the southwest side of Chicago, Laura has dedicated much of her life to helping others improve their health and well-being through compassion, education, and natural healing practices. Her personal experiences with chronic digestive issues and holistic healing inspired her path into colon hydrotherapy and wellness care.

Laura’s philosophy is deeply influenced by her long-standing practice of Nichiren Buddhism through Soka Gakkai International, which she began in 1972. This practice emphasizes compassion, respect for all life, and the belief that every person has the ability to create positive change and lasting value in their lives.

Laura spent 32 years working alongside her father in the family printing business. During that time, personal health challenges and the loss of her father to stomach cancer led her to take a deeper interest in holistic health and nutrition.

After struggling with digestive concerns for many years, Laura began working with holistic healthcare practitioners who introduced her to nutrition-based healing and lifestyle changes. Through dietary modifications—including reducing inflammatory foods and eliminating gluten—she experienced significant improvements in her health.

As part of her healing journey, Laura was introduced to colon hydrotherapy and quickly experienced profound benefits in her digestive health and overall well-being. Inspired by the positive impact it had on her life, she decided to pursue professional training so she could help others experience similar results.

Laura became a certified colon hydrotherapist through International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy in March 2006 and has been supporting clients through colon hydrotherapy ever since.

Her credentials include:

• Advanced-Level Certified Colon Hydrotherapist

• Member of the National Board for Colon Hydrotherapy

• Certified through International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy

Laura believes that healing begins by supporting the body naturally and addressing the root causes of imbalance. She is passionate about educating and empowering clients to make informed lifestyle choices that support digestive health, vitality, and long-term wellness.

Her approach is grounded in compassion, respect, and creating a supportive environment where clients feel comfortable, cared for, and encouraged throughout their wellness journey.

I am a licensed massage therapist with more than 600 hours of professional massage education and a passion for helping people restore movement, reduce pain, and improve overall well-being through hands-on care. My journey into massage therapy began through my own experiences recovering from years of skateboarding-related injuries, which gave me a deep appreciation for the body’s remarkable ability to heal when given the right support and environment.

Through bodywork, movement, and natural approaches to health, I was able to regain function and stability and continue doing what I loved. Those experiences inspired me to pursue a career in whole health care and help others feel stronger, move better, and reconnect with their bodies.

I believe education is an important part of healing, and I enjoy helping clients better understand their bodies while empowering them with practical tools to support long-term health and recovery.

• Therapeutic massage

• Swedish massage

• Thai massage

• Prenatal massage

• Cupping therapy

• Myofascial release

In addition to hands-on treatment, I educate clients on proper body mechanics, stretching techniques, and home exercises to support recovery, mobility, and long-term function.

My own healing journey through bodywork and natural health approaches ultimately led me toward massage therapy and whole health care.

Outside of work, I have always had a strong connection to animals and grew up caring for birds, dogs, cats, ferrets, and even a chinchilla. Those experiences taught me responsibility, compassion, and patience from an early age.

I also began skateboarding at age 11, which taught me discipline, perseverance, and dedication—qualities that continue to shape both my personal life and professional approach today. I remain committed to lifelong learning and continually expanding my knowledge and skills to better support my clients.

• Graduate — New School for Massage (2022)

This gentle, non-invasive therapy focuses on improving overall function of the reproductive organs. Factors such as scar tissue, inflammation, endometriosis, surgery, infection, childbirth, or chronic pelvic tension can limit this natural mobility. Using precise, external abdominal techniques, Mercier Therapy helps restore movement, improve circulation, support lymphatic drainage, and reduce pelvic congestion allowing the body to function more optimally.

• Irregular menstrual cycles 

• Painful periods (dysmenorrhea) 

• Endometriosis and pelvic adhesions 

• Pain with intercourse (dyspareunia) 

• Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) 

• Scar tissue from pelvic surgery 

• Post-surgical healing 

• Fertility challenges 

• Support during IVF or IUI cycles 

• Recovery after miscarriage or childbirth 

Sessions are performed externally on the abdomen and pelvis and are both gentle and non-invasive. A typical treatment plan consists of six sessions, each lasting 45–60 minutes, completed over about six weeks.

Care is always individualized based on your symptoms, history, and goals. At Prosperian Integrative Clinic, Mercier Therapy is often combined with nutritional support, herbal medicine, and lifestyle guidance to create a more comprehensive and supportive plan.

• Pregnancy 

• Active infection 

• Active cancer 

• Intrauterine device (IUD) 

• Essure device 

• During menstruation for those with endometriosis 

Mercier Therapy is a complementary approach and does not replace medical care. It is intended to work alongside your gynecologist, fertility specialist, or primary care provider.

If you’re experiencing pelvic pain, menstrual concerns, or looking to support your fertility, this may be a helpful addition to your care. If you’re unsure whether it’s right for you, a consultation allows us to review your history and create a plan that fits your needs.
