Your Massage Therapist and Birth Doula
Brittany Muscarella
Some of the most profound experiences I’ve had in my life have been supporting people through their birth experience, and laying hands on the body. My path as a licensed massage therapist began in 2018, but it was the art of prenatal bodywork that ignited my deep love for the alchemy of birth. I quickly discovered the magic that massage holds for the pregnant and postpartum vessel—where the wisdom of the body meets therapeutic care. This calling led me to become a doula student, where I apprenticed under incredible women. I then became a practicing doula, but yet I remain forever a student of birth wisdom.
I feel deeply honored and privileged to witness this transformation and support families through their pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. My passion lies in illuminating the the physiology of birth and educating people on the incredible power within their own bodies. Birth, in all its transformative beauty, is a ritual I sincerely cherish, and I carry my role as a doula with reverence, unwavering love and consider it a sacred privilege.
The conception of Essence of Yin integrates my philosophies of both birth and body work - slowing the breath down and turning inward. All of our answers come from within, and my intention is to be a conduit to support the process, whether I am providing you a massage treatment on the table or holding your hand as you labor in the birth tub.
