Tzipora Kirschner
​BSM, CPM, CST, FET

Hi there. Welcome!
I'm Tzipora.

(pronounced 'Zi-por-a')
Tzipora Kirschner is a Craniosacral Therapist (CST) and Herbalist offering her services in the Tucson and Sedona area. She specializes in infant tongue-tie issues, mothers and babies — and all kinds of people who are interested in learning about how CST and herbs can enhance their well-being.

Tzipora approaches her practice as an empathic art, holding space for your nervous system to let go of the ‘fight-or-flight' response. The intention is that you can then unwind physical and emotional trauma, support your immune system, and be more present to enjoy your life. Tzipora finds joy and satisfaction in taking the time to meet your specific needs with exceptionally individualized care.

"Nature feeds my soul and plant spirit medicine is my lifelong passion."

​In addition to the expertise she gained during her years as a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM, retired), Tzipora has devoted many hours to the study and practice of herbal medicine, homeopathy, flower essence therapy, lactation, permaculture, Reiki, yoga therapy, and women’s health & spirituality. She weaves these interconnected modalities into an integrated, whole-being approach as she supports her clients so they can heal and thrive.

For more than twenty years, it has been my deepest joy to nourish, care for, and support people from all walks of life, recognizing and honoring the innate wisdom, consciousness, and humanity within each person. ​
