White-knuckled and strapped in, Move2wellness has held on for two years through the economic roller coaster, evolving into a true co-operative, complementary, alternative healing center. Lynda Willams added her Natural Bodyworks, a long-established massage therapy practice with reflexology and craniosacral, to the Center. Colleen Olphie’s five-element-based Radiant Health Acupuncture moved its Wilton practice to M2W and has increased its office hours threefold. In the fall of 2010, Roberta Russell’s Beyond Touch Therapy began classes in EFT, the Emotional Freedom Technique, and now offers extended workshops. Melissa Merendino, longtime spiritual supporter of the center, well-respected reader and healer, offers private sessions and workshops in the healing arts for both the two-legged and four legged. Bob Pagament of Westchester Hypnosis now offers sessions in smoking, weight reduction and addictive behaviors, and naturopathic physician Dr. Deb Bossio offers free monthly discussions on topics ranging from Addressing Anxiety Naturally to Menopause. As times change and we all negotiate the economy, environment, and medical evolution, Move2Wellness founder Rob Young remains committed to providing therapies that can best serve its community.
