Nava Wiegert

Nava brings exquisitely refined therapeutic touch to the Sophia Health Institute, where she works closely with Dr. Klinghardt as a core practitioner on his world-renowned healing team.  Shaped early by a life spent on horseback, she learned the language of subtle communication through movement, cultivating hands that listen and gently guide. Educated at the University of Michigan in the dual fields of science and art & design, Nava has a sophisticated understanding of structure, balance, and nuance. This foundation naturally evolved into a professional expression within the healing arts, where her quiet intuition and technical mastery converge.

Each session with Nava is a mindfully curated experience.  She approaches the body’s intrinsic wisdom with reverence, presence, and expert skill, offering therapy that is as beautiful as it is transformative.  The Trager^® Approach is her specialty, and we are honored to offer this profound modality to our patients.

Life subtly shapes us into patterns—some that support ease and vitality, others that restrict movement, breath, belief, and possibility. Over time, conditioning, trauma, injury, and illness can erode our natural freedom—often so gradually that it is forgotten.  Trager® gently restores this freedom.

Through rhythmic, wave-like movement, the body is invited into flow and deep relaxation, allowing long-held patterns to dissolve without force. The body is reminded how it should be—necks glide, shoulders settle, arms swing, ribs rise, bellies soften, spines lengthen, hips sway, knees rebound, and feet reanimate. Joints decompress, muscles melt, fascia balances, stagnation flows, the nervous system recalibrates, and the mind downshifts.

Potential results include relief from chronic tension and pain, freer movement, increased range of motion, deeper breath, emotional release, awakened self-awareness, restorative sleep, a sense of expansion, and an overall feeling of renewal. While a single session may feel revelatory, the work is cumulative, with each session refining and deepening the body’s capacity for ease.

Sessions often open or close with simple movement explorations that educate and empower you to replace old habits of holding on with new ways of letting go.  As effort yields to grace, a more peaceful way of being emerges—one that continues to soften how you inhabit yourself and move through the world.
