Sarah Farahat is an aunti, artist, and energy worker with Egyptian and European roots grounded in the belief that when we support each others healing, we help mend the world. Her sessions are a gentle combination of craniosacral therapy* and energy work using plants, stones & crystals. She also offers auricular 5NP acupuncture upon request.

This work is great for:
-deep relaxation
-chronic pain
-traumatic brain injuries
-concussions
-auto-immune disorders
-low back & neck pain
-PTSD/Trauma
-fatigue
-anxiety
-Fibromyalgia
-health conditions that don't seem to be improving
-mysterious pain & discomfort in the body
-people who like gentle touch & trauma informed care

Her practice today stems from many lineages, including from Cherokee & Shawnee traditional medicine, more widely known today as Craniosacral Therapy. She feels most drawn towards soothing and fortifying peoples' nervous systems and energetic bodies as we navigate an increasingly uncertain future together.

She is a certified 5NP Technician through the State of Oregon using a traditional Chinese auricular acupuncture treatment for post traumatic stress and addiction. She continues to support community health and safety through protest aftercare.

As a long time activist and organizer living in a politicized body, she understands the toll that the work of change can take on our spirits, manifesting in anxiety, chronic pain, and autoimmune disease. Sarah continues to dance with and listen to these stories. She is continually in awe of how our bodies speak to us and what we are able to notice while in the presence of caring practitioners. She is honored to listen alongside you in cultivating a deeper relationship with your body. 

Sarah has studied with local and ancestral Indigenous plants for most of her life, learning naturally from my grandmother and my father as well as more intentionally later in life from herbal medicine teachers like Layla Feghali, Scott Kloos, and Shayne Case. She was certified in 5NP at the historic Lincoln Recovery Center in 2009 and again through Oregon College of Community Acupuncture in 2026, and is a 2023 graduate of Shayne Case's Under the Eagle's Wing mentorship & apprenticeship programs and was certified in Craniosacral Therapy by Moving Mountain Institute in 2024.

Most importantly she talks with the rock & star people, plantcestors and waters. Their wisdom informs all of her work.

* "Craniosacral therapy is a conversation with the central nervous system—A way of communicating with the deepest organizing forces in the body through gentle, precise touch. This isn't about manipulating bones or forcing change. It’s an invitation into relationship with subtle rhythms, fluid dynamics, and tissue intelligence. Through skilled contact, you can create a container where natural shifts and healing capacities can emerge."-Moving Mountain Institute
