Annette Rodriguez Nathan

CranioSacral Therapist · Integrative Manual Therapist · Licensed Massage Therapist

CranioSacral therapist specializing in nervous system regulation, trauma-aware care, and gentle integrative massage and manual therapy.

Annette Rodriguez Nathan brings nearly 30 years of experience in therapeutic bodywork and trauma-aware care. Her work centers on CranioSacral Therapy and integrative manual techniques that support nervous system regulation, deep rest, and the body’s natural capacity for healing.

Annette is known for her calm presence and highly attentive approach to care. Her sessions emphasize safety, choice, and careful listening, creating a therapeutic environment where healing can unfold at the body’s own pace. Her work is client-centered, consent-based, and responsive to the lived experiences held within the body.

Her background includes extensive training in advanced CranioSacral Therapy, Somatic Emotional Release, pediatrics and infant CranioSacral Therapy, the enteric nervous system and microbiome, the immune system, and the integration of acupuncture meridians within CranioSacral work. She has also studied Hawaiian Lomilomi, Thai Yoga Massage, Reflexology, and Huna psycho-spiritual principles, all of which contribute to the depth and sensitivity of her work.

After relocating to the Boulder area in 2011, Annette practiced in a chiropractic setting, working with patients recovering from whiplash, spinal injuries, vertebral injuries, and other post-traumatic soft tissue conditions. This experience deepened her clinical understanding of pain, compensation patterns, and nervous system reactivity, and further shaped her integrative, neuro-sensitive approach to care.

Annette’s work emphasizes parasympathetic regulation, vagus nerve support, and the subtle practice of listening for the body’s internal cues. Her sessions help clients feel more settled, resourced, and at home in their bodies.

In addition to her therapeutic work, Annette is a certified Master Circle Facilitator. Her women’s circles create trauma-aware spaces where women can reconnect with their voice, personal power, and a sense of shared community.

“Annette is just the most amazing practitioner I have ever experienced. I find myself pinching myself that I have found someone as healing, kind and extraordinary as her. Can’t recommend her or Boulder Bodyworks enough.”
