Go with the flow of the rhythm.
We don’t control these rhythms, but if we can learn to go with the flow rather than resist it, we will be much happier in the long run. Our modern conveniences allow us to override what’s happening in the natural world outdoors. As a result we also may be ignoring what our bodies need: rest and rhythm.
Let me meet you where you are and assist you with where you'd like to be. I offer nurturing support throughout pregnancy, birth, & postpartum seasons.

Laura Walker, LMT, Broad Spectrum Doula

Welcome to my world of healing and support. I'm Laura, a licensed massage therapist with a journey that has taken me from the heart of Indianapolis to the vibrant city of Tacoma. I embarked on this path in 2008, armed with the desire to bring relief, comfort, and wellness to others through the art of massage.
But my story doesn't stop there. In 2013, I packed my passion and skills and made the move to the Pacific Northwest. It was here, amid the breathtaking landscapes and diverse communities, that my deep-rooted fascination with the transformative power of birth found its purpose.
In early 2020, I took a significant step towards this calling by training as a birth doula. The world may have hit pause due to the pandemic, but my dedication to empowering and supporting individuals during the incredible journey of childbirth remained unwavering.
Today, I stand at the intersection of two beautiful worlds, where the soothing touch of massage and the nurturing presence of a doula converge. In a time when connection, comfort, and empowerment are more important than ever, I am here to provide you with the unique and holistic support you deserve.
Together, let's embark on a journey of well-being and transformation, because your story matters, and I'm here to help you embrace it.
