"All that you touch you Change. All that you Change, Changes you. - Octavia Butler
Hello, & welcome to Body Luminous LLC! My name is Lauren Wales & I am a queer person, a mama to an amazing grown person who was born at home in water, a student midwife & an abdominal, reproductive wellness and scar tissue bodywork specialist. I've been in practice in the field of reproductive care work since 2001, when I began my work as a doula and birth assistant. I currently reside in the greater Orlando, FL area (FL MA 102623), USA, on the unceded occupied homelands of the Seminole and Miccosukee tribes of Florida.
I offer education tools & bodywork services that are oriented towards growth & change within people, families & communities. I provide scar tissue remediation for cesarean and top surgery scars, an Advanced Arvigo practitioner for fertility, pregnancy and postpartum bodywork, and I offer vaginal and perineal steaming to my clients. I weave together a custom session that meets clients where they are, while also inviting greater awareness & connectedness with our bodies & emotions. My practice is trauma sensitive, focused on collective liberation & kindness. I choose to be humbly adaptive to the needs of community & self. I am queer and trans friendly. My pronouns are she & they.
I am currently located in small collective in Winter Park with other professionals, including homebirth midwives, called the Moonrise Birth Collective at 30 N Denning Dr., Winter Park, FL 32789. 312-766-4676.
I also offer out-call massage for clients in the greater Orlando area.
