Meet Natalie

Xavier Holland

A GROUNDED APPROACH

Natalie’s work is shaped by years of hands-on practice and a deep respect for how the body adapts, protects, and responds over time. Her approach is attentive and observant, guided by what your body communicates rather than a fixed protocol. Through Somatic Healing & Alignment, she supports clients across Lakeville, Edina, and the greater Twin Cities area with care that is steady, responsive, and individualized.

Natalie has personally experienced the benefits of Structural Integration after navigating injury, surgery, and the physical effects of stress, deepening her understanding of how this work supports balance, ease, and adaptability.

Experienced, Attentive Care

Natalie brings a calm, steady presence to each session at Somatic Healing & Alignment. Her work is informed by training in Structural Integration, Somatic Experiencing®, and Esalen® Massage.

Sessions are guided by careful assessment and close attention to how your body responds in the moment. Rather than pushing for change, Natalie works with your system to support integration, ease, and long-term resilience. Sessions evolve over time, shaped by ongoing observation and how the body integrates previous work.

Clients often seek her out for care that is thoughtful, respectful, and individualized – particularly when navigating long-held tension, stress-related patterns, or the physical effects of injury.

★★★★★
“I worked with Xavier for a 3-series, and his deep understanding of anatomy and body patterns made a huge difference. As someone with scoliosis, I felt completely supported, safe, and able to relax as my body began to unwind long-held patterns.”
