ABOUT ME
Hello! My name is Abbey Joy Cmiel. My goal is to help people connect to their bodies, community & the Earth.
I am a healer, community builder, activist, and Earth tender
I am trained in Ayurveda, Herbalism, Yoga, and Polarity Therapy. I offer Ayurvedic Pulse Assessments, Lymphatic Body Work, Womb Care, Yoga Classes and other healing modalities. I live and offer Ayurvedic treatments in Sebastopol, CA on unceded Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo Land.
I have studied extensively with DeAnna Batdorff of dhyana Essentials in Sebastopol, CA since 2022 to learn Ayurvedic Pulse Assessments, Lymphatic Body Work, Tibetan Cranial Massage, Abdominal Massage, Uterus Alignments, Breast/Chest Lymphatic Care, Pancha Karma techniques, and more.
I am the co-founder and co-director of the Integra Collective, an organization founded in 2020 dedicated to regenerating the human-Earth relationship. Integra Collective brings together social and ecological changemakers to host educational programs and community events to connect people to their bodies, communities and the Earth.
I am an avid caretaker of the Earth, and studied Permaculture at the Eco Institute in North Carolina, the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center in California, and Rancho Mastatal, Costa Rica. I love to garden, build relationships with plants, and create herbal medicine.
I would love to support you in your journey of building your relationship with your body and the Earth
In deep gratitude to my teachers & mentors

TESTIMONIALS
“I loved my consultation with Abbey. She is so knowledgeable and experienced and also caring and sincere.
It was really easy to talk to her about my health concerns and she worked with me to come up with solutions that were both practical and empowering.
Her approach to health education is very down-to-earth and also fun. I look forward to following up with her.”

“Abbey is wonderful. She knows how to adjust the uterus with external work. My bladder is functioning so much better after only one adjustment.
She has helped my dry menopausal system get juiced up- my skin, lymph and joints are so much more supple. She has helped break down stuck fascia and old scar tissue.
I feel younger and am getting replenished at a deep level from working with her for only 3 sessions.”

“Abbey is a wonderful bodyworker! She is so grounded and vibrant. It was so clear that she was seeing me as I authentically am and envisioning with me the great assurance of health that is possible.”
