Relaxation Massage

While Relaxation Massage is a very soothing modality, it certainly has therapeutic benefits. Relaxation or Swedish Massage uses an array of strokes to improve circulation and relax muscles. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.

This modality is effective for those who desire a lighter touch and pressure such as Seniors, children, chemo patients, post surgical patients (with Dr. approval).

Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork

Therapeutic Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of muscles. Deep Tissue Massage is an highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to insure working within one's pain tolerance. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after treatment. Hydration, heat/cold packs, epsom salt baths and gentle stretching may reduce soreness.

CranioSacral (SM)

CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle yet powerful technique which is effective in releasing neck pain, back pain, and mental stress (among other things). It does this by optimizing the movement of cerebrospinal fluid through the spine and around the skull. Developed by physician William Sutherland, this therapy provides a very soothing and relaxing healing experience.

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work which cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to assist your self-healing. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.

Warm Bamboo/Hot Stone Therapy

Warm Bamboo tools are used to loosen fascial restrictions that help keep muscles tight. Heat, along with varying degrees of pressure, is effective in softening muscle tissue which allows for deeper work without discomfort.  

Hot Stone Therapy is a style of massage where heated stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated with these stones release tension and stress much more deeply and quickly than with a traditional massage. The overall experience is very relaxing, nurturing, and rejuvenating.

Sticks and Stones Therapy is a wonderful combination of Warm Bamboo and Hot Stones which replaces deeply held muscle tension with ease and relaxation.

Dry Brush Exfoliation Massage

Dry brush massage is a modality that stimulates the skin and promotes detoxification.  This modality removes dead skin cells, stimulates the nerve endings and lymphatic system to encourage the body's natural healing and cleansing processes.

Your session begins with gentle dry brush exfoliation followed by a warm oil massage with (or without) an essential oil of your choice. Moist, hot towels to cleanse the skin completes the service.  You may keep the dry brush for future sessions.

NOTE:

Dry brush massage will not be performed on skin that has a rash, infection, cut or wound.  Brushing over skin irritations, cuts or wounds can interfere with healing and promote spreading of rashes and infections.

Lomilomi Hawaiian Massage

Aloha!  Lomilomi Hawaiian Massage is part of a larger native Hawaiian tradition of healing and natural body care. Temple style lomi focuses on aligning the body, mind and spirit through prayer, sacred chant and therapeutic touch.

According to Hawaiian tradition, all living beings are seeking a state of balance and love in the world. During a Lomilomi session we focus on relaxing your body through gentle, flowing movements; reviving your spirit and filling your body with restorative energy. When the body is relaxed, deeper muscle work can be achieved.

To receive the utmost benefit of this sacred work, a relationship of trust must exist between the practitioner and client. To that end, I do not offer Lomi as a first time service to new clients. If you have experience authentic Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage and would like to discuss scheduling an appointment, please feel free to call 336-422-4559.
