This Craft has an incredibly impressionable impact upon the vessel, heart, and mind. Manual - or by hand - body art means an organic and precise approach. In return, inflicting half the trauma to the skin that a machine would apply. Working with the nervous system allows the piece to heal, in a significantly shorter time frame. Provided safely by healing hands, with an additional sense of comfort and safety. Thus, eliminating the presence of jarring vibrations, emitting from a mechanical method. Through conscious consent and compassionate care, our artist-practitioners deliver reassuring and affirming support.
Consider not only the skin’s depth of body art - but holistic influences. Imprinting allows us to embrace pain for a personal breakthrough. Through this process, there is not only a literal Imprint, but a residual emotional and energetic one. From the given experience, multiple dimensions stick with a person. This artistic milestone is a
Consider not only the skin’s depth of body art - but holistic influences. Imprinting allows us to embrace pain for a personal breakthrough. Through this process, there is not only a literal Imprint, but a residual emotional and energetic one. From the given experience, multiple dimensions stick with a person. This artistic milestone is a neurological reframing, just as much as an aesthetic expression. Chemicals released in the brain like endorphins, and epinephrine, cause a natural shift of consciousness within a session. As a positive consequence, this becomes associated with the act of vulnerability, in trusting an artist. Imprinting is especially healing for survivors of abuse and PTSD, made manifest as a permanently empowering talisman.

We come together, patient and practitioner, to cultivate the ceremony or session you need. Imprinting is a two-way street, an exciting collaboration! From the inception of a session, we open space for the patient to ease inward. Receiving a piece nurtures introspection. Ensuring pure medicine allows us to explore internally; an opportunity to make peace within. Holistic (all-encompassing) care brings us closer to ourselves. Cultures of every continent have taught this within tradition. Today, we build resurgence of body art customs for all lineages. Imprinting bestows us a gateway for greater frontiers of expansion and reverence.
We are a semi-nomadic initiative - offering private, travel, and studio sessions. Our practice is central to Lenape ancestral, Iroquois and Susquehannock lands (Southeastern PA). Currently, Sacred Pokes takes studio clients in Montgomery County, PA. Travel sessions are limitless.
Our founder, Enx Eeden (they/them), began Sacred Pokes in 2015 as a mind-body medicine. Since, they’ve continuously studied body art history, health science and ritual to cultivate this Art. They are an author, musician, painter and educator from Lenapehokink.
