Michelle Hall, BSSW, LMT

Michelle is a trauma-informed bodyworker and facilitator with a deep commitment to healing, connection, and community care. With more than 25 years of of experience as a social worker developing trauma-informed programs for youth and young adults experiencing homelessness and supporting direct-service teams, Michelle brings a deep understanding of the effects of trauma, life transitions, and the importance of caring for those who care for others.

Michelle offers bodywork focused on supporting the nervous system, reconnecting with the body, and cultivating greater ease and vitality. Her bodywork integrates massage, energy work, a myofascial approach and Craniosacral Therapy. Through her practice, Elemental Support, she facilitates workshops and community experiences that center connection and collective care and also offers opportunities for activist and organizers to get the somatic supports they need to continue their invaluable work. Michelle is a founding member of Chant Ram, a devotional band based in Nashville that brings people together through kirtan, sacred celebrations, and heartfelt community gatherings.

At the heart of Michelle's work is a question: How do we get the support we need for ourselves while we care for others? She believes that deep connections to our bodies, the natural world, and our communities create conditions for people not just to heal, but to thrive.

Rooted in compassion, collaboration, and a belief that a more just and loving world is possible, Michelle’s work is an invitation to reimagine how we care for ourselves and each other.
