Meet Caelie Winchester

Oodelah Co-Owner & LMT

Caelie has advanced training in supportive manual therapy for chronic health issues, including EDS, hEDS, HSD, and connective tissue disorders. Having a connective tissue disorder herself, she understands how important it is to gently balance the body, soothe the autonomic nervous system, and look at the body as a whole.

You do not need to have an official diagnosis of EDS to receive care that is tailored the symptoms of EDS. Caelie believes that her clients are the ultimate experts on their bodies, and she believes them when they say they hurt. Every zebra is different, so each client will receive their own, unique treatment. If your session reveals that you need more complex care, Caelie is happy to give contacts and resources for health professionals in the area who are familiar with EDS/HDS/CTD. Having a healthcare team who listens and understands is crucial, as well as practitioners who are willing to collaborate on your care. Caelie can provide treatment notes and recommendations after your session to aid in coordinated care.

Interested in receiving EDS/HSD care? Fill in your information and we will be in touch!

no touch services and helpful add ons

Sometimes clients need to relax and feel cared for, but they do not want to be touched. This is common, and we can help! We offer touch free services in our zero gravity chair that can reduce pain by calming the nervous system and decompressing the spine. Red light/Infrared light as well as breathwork can be added to massage sessions and no-touch services.

It's not just about being flexible...

Medical Trauma

Our practitioners are trained in trauma-informed care. We listen and adapt to requests so you feel safe and comfortable.

Collaborative Care

Chronic illnesses require care from multiple specialties, and good communication can make a massive difference in the quality of your care. Oodelah practitioners are happy to share your treatment notes with your healthcare team (with your permission). We are also happy to work collaboratively based on advice from your other care providers, including PTs, OTs, orthopedists, pain management, etc.

Comorbidities

We take a detailed intake before your treatment to make sure we are keeping you safe and comfortable. Our advanced training includes pathology, anatomy, and physiology. If we don't know how your condition could be impacted by massage, we can do the research to find out.

Hypoallergenic Concerns

Clients also affected by MCAS can rest assured that we offer many unscented, single ingredient options for your session. Our oil base for massage is rice bran oil. We use scent and dye free detergent on all linens, we are a low odor facility and follow strict sanitation protocols. If you have allergy concerns, please reach out before your session.

Diversity

Whether you're neurodiverse or genderdiverse, we have you covered. Oodelah is a registered "Trans-friendly" business, and our practitioners have advanced training in working with LGBTQIA+ and nonbinary populations. We are also well versed in neurodivergence, as many of our staff are ADHD/ADD and/or ASD.

Sensory Needs

We understand that everyone's comfort looks different. From lighting and music to pressure and communication, we'll gladly adjust your experience to help you feel at ease.
