Ellie Etzell — portrait

Meet Ellie

I do this work because women deserve more than an hour.

Ellie Etzell is in her second year of formal apprenticeship in ceremonial pelvic care. Her practice is held on her family land in Minnesota, on the edge of a native marsh, in a tiny home built for women to arrive into.

What I trained in, and what I'm still learning.

I came into this work because I kept meeting women — myself included — who had done the rounds of pelvic floor PT, chiropractors, integrative doctors, and somatic therapists, and were still carrying tension and pain that no one had the time or training to actually meet. Ceremonial pelvic care meets it.

I am in my second year of apprenticeship now. I graduate fully in March 2028. Until then, my pricing reflects where I am in my training. The depth, presence, and care I bring to the table does not.

The land and the home.

Sessions are held on a tiny home built on the edge of a native Minnesota marsh. Forested walking trails. Wildlife at dusk. Wood stove in winter. Herbal teas stocked from my sister Meg's medicine cabinet.

Women who book extended ceremonies stay in the tiny home through their care. The land is the second practitioner.

My sister, the herbalist.

Meg Etzell runs Healing House Herbs. Every woman who comes for ceremonial care leaves with a personalized herbal remedy crafted for her body, her cycle, and the work that came up in session. Meg's herbs are the integration medicine — they continue what the ceremony begins.
