About Michelle Rose Bravo
Hi, I’m Michelle Bravo, founder of Nurtured Spirit Healing.
As an RN, IBCLC, yoga and Pilates instructor, Reiki Master, and Vibrational Sound Therapy practitioner, I bring together clinical experience and holistic wellness practices to support the connection between body, mind, and nervous system.
My work is rooted in nervous system restoration—creating space to slow down, reconnect, build strength, and develop greater resilience. Through Reiki, Vibrational Sound Therapy, Yoga, Yin, Pilates, and lactation support, I offer both restorative and empowering experiences designed to meet you where you are.
My philosophy is simple: we need both restoration and strength to thrive.
Nurture. Strengthen. Build Resilience.
