About Me
Riann Wakefield aka Ri or RiRi
Despite being successful in the hair industry, I felt as though I wasn't fully living my purpose, like there was more I could be doing. I have been interested in the way the human body works since high school and had seriously considered going in to sports medicine to work with athletes and sports injuries. I chose beauty school instead knowing that I could later return to school for sports medicine. After 20 years of standing behind the chair in a salon, and various other accidents and injuries, my back problems had reached a level of pain and discomfort that I was no longer willing to live with. I began looking in to becoming a yoga teacher. Yoga has become an important part of my life.
I was able to successfully avoid back surgery by developing a daily yoga practice and doing corrective strengthening. I want to share this with others experiencing back/body pain or dis-ease due to a weak foundation. In addition to becoming a yoga instructor I became certified in Cranial Unwinding, a modality that allows me, as the practitioner to create a space for you in a session to remove energy blocks and disruptions in the flow of cerebral spinal fluid by "tapping in" or listening to your cranial rhythm. I like to call it being an energetic plumber. Anyone who's had a shower, sink, or toilet in their home has experienced a clogged drain. The plumbing is clogged somewhere, disrupting the flow, and as a result, affecting the function of that system.
I received my diploma as an Integrative Healing Arts Practitioner with specialties in Cranial Unwinding and Yoga from Southwest Institute of Healing Arts. My focus is in being a foundational health and wellness coach. I am passionate about facilitating a space where you can strengthen your foundation physically and energetically. In my practice, yoga is where the physical strengthening of your foundation comes in and Cranial Unwinding is where I find the most "medicine".
My interest in the human brain and cranial unwinding has led me to focus on concussion, TBI, and spinal cord injury protocols while still facilitating a space for my other clients with a nervous system.
Do you have "dis-ease" that is in the way of you living your best life. Have you experienced an injury that you'd like support in the healing process? Is your body holding on to trauma that you're ready to release? Are you tired of being tired, stressed, in pain, feeling overwhelmed? Do you need support in moving forward with a big decision?
