“When Your Nervous System Whispers, Sara Listens.”
We’ve all had those weeks — when your body feels like a tangled phone cord from the ‘90s and your mind won’t stop buzzing. You stretch, you breathe, you sip the herbal tea... but the tension still hums under your skin.
And then you meet someone like Sara Estrada of The Healing Bee — a healer whose work feels like honey for the soul. 🍯
Sara doesn’t just “do” bodywork. She listens — with her hands, her intuition, and her deep understanding of how the mind and body speak to each other. The moment you step into her care, your nervous system gets the memo: it’s safe to exhale now.
Meet Sara Estrada — Licensed Massage Therapist & Healer at Heart
Sara is a licensed massage therapist (LMT #MSG012046) with over seven years of experience in massage therapy and more than two decades as a social worker. That combination alone speaks volumes — she’s walked alongside people through their hardest seasons, learning the language of empathy, patience, and deep presence.
At her Lebanon-based practice, The Healing Bee, Sara blends her background in Swedish massage, Myofascial Release, Reiki, and the Trager® Approach to create a safe, nurturing experience that honors both body and spirit.
What Is the Trager® Approach? (And Why Everyone’s Talking About It)
If you’ve never heard of Trager®, think of it as the gentlest nervous system reset button you’ve ever experienced.
Developed by Dr. Milton Trager, this approach uses soft, rhythmic, lulling movements to invite your body back into a state of calm awareness. It’s not massage in the traditional sense — no oils, no deep digging — just movement, presence, and release.
The Principles of Trager® Include:
Compression & Elongation – creating space within the muscles
Rotation & Rhythm – coaxing the body into natural flow
Pausing & Stillness – giving the mind permission to rest
Clients remain fully clothed, making this an incredibly safe and trauma-informed form of bodywork — especially powerful for those healing from PTSD, chronic stress, or emotional burnout.
Sara describes Trager® as “a deep yet gentle way to elicit the relaxation response.”
In a world that glorifies hustle, this kind of soft work becomes radical healing.
Healing from the Inside Out
The beauty of Sara’s work lies in her belief that the body already knows how to heal — it just needs permission to remember how.
During a Trager® session, the body and mind begin to let go of old patterns that no longer serve. Those protective postures — clenched jaws, rounded shoulders, shallow breathing — start to melt away as the nervous system re-learns safety and ease.
This is holistic healing at its most profound:
✨ gentle touch,
✨ mindful movement,
✨ and the reminder that you’re already whole.
Sweet Wellness: The Healing Bee’s Local Honey
Of course, it wouldn’t be The Healing Bee without… well, the bees. 🐝
Sara also offers locally harvested honey — a small but mighty wellness ally straight from nature’s pharmacy. Unlike mass-produced honey that’s heavily processed and refined, her local honey retains its natural vitamins, minerals, and enzymes.
🍃 Health Benefits of Local Honey:
Supports the immune system
Naturally antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial
Helps soothe seasonal allergies
Promotes digestive and skin health
Adds a natural sweetness to your tea, skincare, and recipes
It’s no wonder so many of her clients leave a session with a jar in hand — a sweet reminder of how healing can taste, too.
A Trauma-Informed Approach Rooted in Compassion
Sara’s decades as a social worker taught her how trauma shows up in the body — and how safety and trust are the foundation of true healing.
That’s why every session begins with conversation and consent. Sara asks about your areas of concern, your comfort level, and your goals. Her clients describe her as “gentle,” “intuitive,” “gifted,” and “deeply calming.”
She creates an environment where even the most anxious or sensitive clients can feel seen and supported.
This isn’t cookie-cutter massage. It’s relationship-based bodywork.
