What Others Have Experienced…
From those who have trusted me with their care.
Natalya B.
Whitney is fabulous! She is highly skilled at lymphatic massage among other practices, and she is very good at listening and responding to what I need. My body always feels better after a session!
Jeanne S.
Whitney is a bit of a wonder woman. Her work using Myofacial Release practices is amazing. What I like most of all, is the suggestions she provides for self-care between sessions or after my condition no longer needs her interventions.
Amy M.
Whitney is a highly skilled and deeply sensitive, trained occupational therapist who does integrative bodywork. She takes her time attuning to your needs. You can’t help but feel better after you see her!
Erin L.
She has a way of listening that really gets to the root of the issue. She also met with my mom at home for more privacy and care. She is lovely and I highly recommend care with her.

Whitney Shepperd
With over 15 years of experience as an occupational therapist in Western Massachusetts hospitals, I bring a strong clinical foundation into a more intentional, one-on-one healing space.
I specialize in gentle, hands-on therapies including myofascial release, lymphatic drainage, and craniosacral therapy—helping clients who feel tight, overwhelmed, or stuck in their bodies find lasting relief from pain, stress, and tension.
I work with individuals ages 12 and up. I also love working with infants and postpartum moms, and I welcome those clients into this space with special care and attention.
