I'M DAYANA

I see myself as a curious learner and visionary in holistic wellness, the driving force behind Dayana.io, an integrative platform dedicated to healing and personal transformation.

With a deep expertise in the Feldenkrais Method, massage therapy, and energy healing work, I love to craft personalized wellness journeys that help my clients experience life without chronic pain, increase vitality, and find mental clarity.

My approach is more than just physical—it's a path to reconnecting with your body’s innate wisdom, fostering a life of balance, strength, and inner peace. My guidance is intuitive, empowering, and deeply transformative.

MY STORY

Born in Uruguay, a small country in South America, I grew up feeling that the ceiling was always too small. My curiosity and drive brought me to the USA in 2004, and to pursue multiple talents: music, martial arts, and the Feldenkrais Method.

After having 2 daughters and overcoming a challenging divorce, I found myself rebuilding my life from pieces that didn't seem to fit together. In the process of motherhood I had lost my true north. Who was I? A healer? A movement teacher? A spiritual student? All of them...?

During my healing process I learned to receive and integrate all of my gifts, and in doing so, it became easier to share them with you.

I know what it's like to feel lost in the middle of a transition. If you're ready to walk away from your own limiting beliefs and build a life you love, I am ready to lead the way.

Let's find the easiest place to begin and co-create a map for your own journey where every meaningful step will take you closer to your true self.

"Dayana's engaging style, intuitive ability & extensive expertise of the Feldenkrais Method has increased my body's ability to relax, reconnect and regain freedom of movement. My mind & body are integrated in a peaceful state during and after a session. Dayana is a gifted healer."

Taye Windish

"Wow. Just wow. Mind blowingly great teacher. In just one session I received more practical immediate help and self revealed knowledge than with multiple sessions with other somatic practitioners. Her kind, sweet spirit and lovely voice and style gently guided me to a deeper remembering of how my body is naturally put together and functions. Blew away all of my previous mental constructs of how I thought my body works (and I thought I knew a lot!). So grateful to have found her and will be going back for sure."

Tim K. Murphy

"Dayana is intuitive, intelligent, skilled and a breath of fresh air. She provides such a compassionate, intentional and supportive presence that allows for deep growth & healing. Her understanding of the body/mind and its interconnectedness is felt directly by working with her. Dayana helps unify the body in such a way that all parts come together and work together as nature intended."

A. Rosen

"I have been working with Dayana for close to 8 years, both receiving Feldenkrais treatments and attending classes in person and online. She has helped me tremendously, with chronic pain issues, alignment, attitude. She is a very gifted healer, a wise and very loving person. I recommend her very highly."

Jane McRory

"I cannot recommend Dayana highly enough. Her intuitive touch and body wisdom settled my nervous system and allowed me to open up and safely go deeply into my body, emotions, and tap into blockages that were no longer serving me. Her gentleness, generosity and guidance relaxed me into a “letting go” while “being held” at the same time. She reminded me to invite all the senses, and to rely on what is and has always been trustworthy: the body and her infinite wisdom. I plan on returning again and again.
Gracias, Gracias Dayana. I am still feeling the grounded bliss from our session."

Ana Maria Jomolca

"I had a wonderful experience with Dayana. She's not only full of knowledge and wisdom, but also kind, a great listener, and very supportive. Her work environment is beautiful, clean, neat, and inviting. I'm grateful to have found her as the support system I've needed for so long. Thank you!"

Elsa Mora

"I had an absolutely amazing Healing Session with Dayana. She is an incredibly skillful, wise and compassionate practitioner and draws on a wide range of holistic healing modalities. I came away from our session feeling such expansiveness, ease and joy in my body, mind and heart. And it lasted for days! I couldn’t recommend her more highly!"

Lael Rasch

"I had a very uplifting conversation with Dayana today. I had reached out to learn about one of her programs but she spent time giving me tools to help me immediately in a challenging situation that I find myself. I am so grateful for her compassion!"

Annie

"Dayana is very knowledgeable in pain management, movement and mind-body connection. Her use of different modalities for each individual makes for a relaxing experience that addresses the issues and encourages positive results long term. Her personal style is confident and friendly. I just love her!"

Melanie Senft

"The meeting with Dayana was fantastic.
Feldenkrais's teachings are difficult to understand but Dayana in her practice can interpret them and make them deeply meaningful and healing."

Anders Hagg

"Dayana is a great massage therapist. She took time to get a sense of what my daily activities are like and looked for knots and rough spots based on what I do for work and exercise.

I left the appointment feeling lighter and walking a bit more upright."

Gene Sonn

"Dayana gave me a fantastic massage today! She didn't forget my feet, my head, my hands....it all felt so good, and she used just the right amount of pressure. I am going to recommend her to my friends!"

Susan Duval

"I've had hundreds of massages over the past 30 years. This was the best yet! Dayana moves quickly with just the right amount of force. The warm stones are like magic. I'm going back weekly!"

James Marciano

"Dayana has such great knowledge of the body and an intuitive feel for what your body needs. The atmosphere was comforting and as is her gentle presence. My deep tissue and hot stone massage was just what my body needed."

Vicki Sarnoff

"Dayana is a very talented and intuitive body work therapist. The massage that I received yesterday was exceptional. Very relaxing and helpful with chronic tension and pain. I’ve used Dayana’s services as a Feldenkreis practitioner in the past with great success and am delighted that she is adding massage to her offerings. I very highly recommend her work!!"

Ellen Burrows

"Excellent experience. Dayana is outstanding, both as a Feldenkreis practitioner and as a massage therapist. I can only recommend her."

Elsa Markhoff

"Dayana made me feel relaxed in such a deep way that I didn’t want to get off the table. Her attention and energy made the tension seem to flow right out of my body. She listened to what I needed and applied just the right about of pressure. I highly recommend her for a restorative massage that will give you greater ease in your body."

Jess Walcott

"Dayana is a true educator, both challenging and inspiring. She has a wealth of knowledge and a lighthearted demeanor, making sessions a joy. I went because of a localized problem, but after 2 sessions realized that Feldenkrais would be enormously helpful with life-long issues of misalignment and inefficiency. In just 10 sessions, I completely changed how my body works!"

Pierce Salguero

"Had an amazing first session to address my lower back issues and feeling much relief after my first visit. Will be returning soon to further my wellness plan."

Michael Thatcher

"Had my very first Arcturian Healing Light session with Dayana several days ago. It was simply wonderful – I went away feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, peaceful and content. I intentionally waited a few days before commenting to see if this feeling lasted – and it has! Highly recommend – Dayana is a true lightworker!"

Jacqueline Fox

"Dayana's calming and kind nature put me at ease right away. Her session helped me with pain in my neck and shoulder and also to feel incredibly relaxed throughout the day. I highly reccomend her for her wisdom, skill and many modalities."

Maureen Keyte

"Thank you, Dayana, for bringing warmth and a healing touch to my painfully frost bitten hands and feet. The energy was flowing and I truly felt a warm sensation as you gently held and massaged each area. For the rest of the day I felt peaceful, calm, and a sense of warmth flowing through my body.
Thank you!"

Linda Winokur

"I had an Arcturian Healing Light session with Dayana. She is lovely to work with. She was gracious, calming, listened attentively and responded to everything I addressed. She followed up promptly with an email about things we discussed in the session. I look forward to the shifts that I trust are already happening as a result of our session!"

Donna Stevenson

"Just attended Dayana's Restorative Retreat in Beach Haven NJ this weekend and it was amazing! So relaxing...
Dayana's sessions were so enlightening and I learned so much that can transition into my everyday life. Dayana has such a calming presence about her and she is so knowledgeable. 5 Stars is not high enough!"

Sue Bencivengo

"Dayana is a truly incredible practitioner. Her knowledge of the body and how to create changes are amazing. I highly recommend her"

Paul Stratton

"With patience and kindness, Dayana has helped me find a connection between mind and body to speed my recovery from a painful muscle condition. Her healing skills train all body parts to work together in harmony for positive results. She listens thoughtfully to my concerns and responds with sincere and sound suggestions for continuing improvements. Many thanks, Dayana!"

Jacquie Strigl

"Dayana helped me immensely with chronic pain in my shoulder and hip, and also taught me so much about better movement strategies, attitudes to pain and exploration, and confidence in my own felt sense. I highly recommend working with her!"

Nancy Roane

"Dayana is a true healer. I love her practice. From the moment you walk in the door, whole experience is so, I don't know, "beneficial?" on so many levels. I originally saw her for my knee but she cleared up that problem so quickly I had to think of other excuses to go back."
