Fire Relief for All Body Connect Systems

Donation protected
On Christmas morning, a fire devastated my medical massage therapy office, resulting in the complete loss of essential resources, client files, and minerals collected over the last 36 years. The realization that I could have been there that night is haunting. However, a last-minute decision to leave the office likely saved my life.

The building suffered irreparable damage, leading to its imminent demolition. The loss is profound—a diverse educational library, out-of-print books that spanned eastern and western modalities, and a treasured mineral collection are among the irreplaceable items. As the sole proprietor of All Body Connect Systems, I've dedicated myself to helping others recover from chronic pain since a life-altering car accident in 2014.

2023 was a year to invest in continued education, obtaining 2 new certifications, and completing my office setup. That goal was met just before Christmas 2023. These business investments were valuable, but that also meant a lean budget. My commitment to providing accessible care led me to avoid raising rates while investing in cutting-edge therapies. Unfortunately, like others at 4600 El Camino Real, we carried required insurance to operate our businesses, but we were not required to carry property insurance. Additionally, we were informed it would be months before the insurance companies would make any decisions.

Now, with the encouragement of my community, I've set up this GoFundMe to rebuild my office. Your support will help me to return to support my clients in reclaiming their quality of life. The funds raised will be allocated solely to the recovery of my business.

I am immensely grateful for the overwhelming support received, and thankful for being out of the building before the fire started. Also, that no one else was in the building that morning. I look forward to getting my office back into full service soon.

Your donations are deeply appreciated,.

Thank your your kindness and support during this challenging time. ~Elisabeth
