WELCOME TO HEALTH CONNECTION
An Addition to Your Wellness Toolbox
Welcome to Health Connection! I am truly grateful that you decided to come onto this page. Throughout my journey of health and wellness, I have found that health does not only include one source. It's not a salad. It's not taking a run. It's none of that. Health is really what works best for you and what makes you feel at peace. Health is a connection between the mind, body, and soul. And I'm here help you towards this connection and to go on this journey of connection with you. Come join me!
Services
The services I provide include the mind, body, and spirit. We are holistic beings with many systems that intertwine. Therefore, we must approach health and wellness through techniques that care for every aspect of our being.
Craniosacral Therapy (CST)
Craniosacral therapy is a very gentle, hands-on form of bodywork that helps the body relax and reset. A practitioner uses **light touch—usually no more pressure than the weight of a nickel—**on areas like the head, spine, and pelvis to feel how the body’s tissues are moving and where they might be tight or holding tension.
The goal is to help the nervous system shift out of “fight-or-flight,” ease restrictions in the tissues and fluid around the brain and spinal cord, and support the body’s natural ability to heal. Most people describe the session as deeply calming—often feeling like a guided reset for both the body and mind.
It’s used for things like stress, headaches, neck or back tension, TMJ issues, emotional overwhelm, or simply when someone needs a gentle approach that supports the whole system.
Neuroemotional Technique (NET)
NeuroEmotional Technique (NET) is a mind-body approach designed to help identify and resolve unresolved emotional patterns that may contribute to physical discomfort, stress, or recurring behavioral patterns. The premise of NET is that emotionally significant events can sometimes become "stored" in the body's stress response, influencing how we feel and function long after the original event has passed.
Using a combination of muscle testing, principles from chiropractic and Traditional Chinese Medicine, and guided awareness, NET helps identify these stress-related patterns and supports the body's natural ability to regulate and heal. Sessions are non-invasive, personalized, and aim to reduce the emotional charge associated with past experiences, allowing individuals to respond to life's challenges with greater ease and resilience.
People seek NET for a wide range of concerns, including:
-
Chronic stress and anxiety
-
Emotional overwhelm
-
Performance and confidence challenges
-
Recurring physical tension
-
Difficulty moving past past experiences
-
Support during life transitions
-
General mind-body wellness

Testimonials 🗣️
From the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely cared for. Gavin's kindness, gentleness, and intuition created a safe and supportive space. He asked thoughtful questions about things I hadn't considered, used muscle testing as guidance, and I felt truly listened to throughout the experience.
After just one craniosacral therapy session, something incredible happened. The sciatica I had been dealing with for months completely disappeared for the rest of that day and, since then, it has continued to improve.
As a transformational healer and educator, I value practitioners who not only support my healing but also expand my own knowledge. It's rare for me to leave a session having learned something new, and Gavin offered insights and perspectives that made the experience even more meaningful and special.
I'm grateful for Gavin's compassionate approach, deep intuition, and ability to tune into what my body needed. This session gave me relief and a renewed appreciation for what is possible through his thoughtful, skilled healing work. I'm incredibly thankful.

ABOUT HEALTH CONNECTION
Who am I?
Is a question we don't ask enough. Maybe we can start with who are not. We are not just a body, just the mind, just the emotions, but so much more. We are truly holistic beings that have multiple layers and dimensions. Because we are such unique creatures, it is imperative to take a unique approach - to connect everything together.
About
My name is Gavin Sklar
My name is Gavin and I am currently in Naturopathic Medical School at Bastyr University San Diego where I am training to be a Naturopathic Doctor - a physician with a holistic and natural approach to health care. My journey started in high school with sports injuries that didn't seem to end. I did rounds of physical therapy until I realized the multidimensional nature of healing. True holistic health includes the physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, social, and beyond! When I started to tap into all these areas of health, my life completely changed. Now I want to share the gift of vitality and wellness to everyone :)
