Migraine Awareness, Reflex Integration, and the Wisdom of the Body: Lessons from Dr. Svetlana Masgutova

June 10, 2026

As we continue our focus on Migraine Awareness Month, I find myself reflecting on the many teachers who have influenced the way I approach healing, movement, and wellness. One of those remarkable teachers is Dr. Svetlana Masgutova, whose work in reflex integration has profoundly shaped how I understand the body’s innate healing intelligence. Taking a class at Tai Chi Cape Breton or the Greenwell Center for Holistic Health is more than you can imagine in depth of knowledge and transformation. If you have been holding back on your wellness plan, consider how our programs can support you.
