Nicole Massengale
Nicole has spent her life in deep relationship with this raw, human experience. Her path has woven through many roles; Mother, Licensed Massage Therapist, Integrative Nutritional Coach, Yoga Instructor, Business Owner, Master Reiki Practitioner, and Human Design Guide. Yet her true work is guiding others back to their own knowing.
Through her work with Shaman and Medicine Woman Kathryn Sharp, and as part of reclaiming her Cuban and South American heritage, she deepened her practice in earth-based ceremony, ancestral communication, land dowsing, and intuitive energy work..
Though her arrival at The Horse Shoe Farm was serendipitous, her bond with the land is intentional. She listens to its stories, honors its ancestral memory, and recognizes the ancient intelligence moving beneath every step.
Through touch, energy, and ceremony, Nicole offers a grounded, intuitive presence; inviting others to return to themselves and to the wisdom that has always been within.
