Gypsy Hands

Gypsy Hands Healing Arts Center

Gypsy Hands Healing Arts Center, located just north of downtown in Knoxville, TN, functions as a holistic wellness center, dance studio, and an ashram for people in all walks of life. This center is the result of proprietor, Sara Griscom's, vision and experiences during her travels through India. Seven years later, Gypsy Hands, now a Green Business, is home to a team of unparalleled massage therapists, energy workers, and dancers. The center provides intuitive counseling, deep tissue and relaxation massage, Chiropractic Care, Reiki, Reiki Training and Certification, and dance instruction, including bellydance, hip-hop and burlesque. Workshops for various topics in healing and dance are often held on weekends. Gypsy Hands is extremely appreciative of our community, whose support continues to nurture our expansion!

NEW! Veterinary acupuncture, herbal, food therapy, and select homeopathic remedies

Veterinary acupuncture, herbal, and food therapy work very well both as a complement to conventional veterinary treatment as well as stand-alone healing modalities to maintain and restore health, balance, and quality of life in our beloved animal companions. Dr Cheryl Cross offers treatment at Gypsy Hands as well as on a housecall or farm call basis and will happily work with your regular veterinarian to offer well-rounded veterinary care.

NEW! Body and Mind Counseling

Steph Gunnoe seeks to empower people from within, exploring personal health as a reflection of our connectedness with others and the natural world. Using a compassionate and tailored approach to each client, Steph hopes to guide her clients to a better understanding of themselves and what they need to be healthy, happy, and whole.

NEW! CranioSacral Therapy

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a light-touch approach that can create dramatic improvements in your life. It releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain and dysfunction and improve whole-body health and performance. Every day you endure stresses and strains and your body absorbs them. Your body can only handle so much tension before the tissues begin to tighten and potentially affect the brain and spinal cord and this can compromise the function of the Central Nervous System (CNS) - and the performance of nearly every other system in your body. CST releases those tensions to allow the entire body to relax and self-correct. By freeing the CNS to perform at its best, CST naturally eliminates pain and stress, strengthens your resistance to disease, and enhances your health and well-being. Because it's so gentle, CST is effective for all ages, from newborns to elders!

Deep Tissue Bodywork

Gypsy Hands is best known for the intense healing experience of our deep tissue massage. Deep tissue may release blocked energy, improve posture, and facilitate the release of chronic pain. Modalities may include shiatsu, Myofascial integration, Swedish, Maori (tribal New Zealand) Healing, Neuromuscular Therapy and more.

Relaxation Massage

Take your body, heart, and soul for a nurturing respite. Reduce stress and tension, improve your overall energy and give honor to your body with the gift of therapeutic touch.

Reiki

Open your chakras to the grace of universal light energy. Relaxing, restorative, and healing on any level, Reiki radiates through the whole person, including mind, body, emotions, and spirit. Healing occurs when positive energy flows through the person's vibratory field, opening the channels for chi, or life-force energy.

Chiropractic Care

Adjustments are great for everyone who wants to improve their current level of health. From newborns to seniors, from the healthy to the injured, everyone benefits from chiropractic care.

Adjustments at Gypsy Hands utilize Bio Geometric Integration, a chiropractic method of analysis that applies quantum physics to our knowledge of the body. Adjustments are gentle and specific and allow your body to expand all that is working properly.
