Light-Medium Pressure
Stress and tension is melted away with very relaxing long, fluid strokes of varying pressure. Circulation and digestion is improved while also promoting restful sleep.
Medium-Deep Pressure
Alleviate chronic aches and pains due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and tightness from past injuries. Deeper tissue layers, trigger points and myofascial restrictions are addressed with localized pressure to efficiently release adhesions or "knots". Hot or Cold packs are used during treatment to prepare, soothe and reduce bruising or swelling. This style of bodywork can be intense but should not be painful to be effective. Open communication during the session is crucial to ensure your comfort. Minor soreness is common after the treatment but should subside within 24 hours.
Light-No Pressure. Fully Clothed
Everyone has a "life force" (Chi or Prana). Anytime you experience emotional or physical illness, it indicates that your life force has simply become unbalanced. This is a NON-INVASSIVE, non-judgmental, quiet practice working directly with your energy fields to restore balance and flow to your entire system. Once your energy pathways have been restored to health, your body will follow.
Reflexology - There are points on the Hands and the Feet that correspond to every gland, organ and system in the body. By applying specific pressure to these points, functions can be normalized thereby returning the body to it's natural balance.
CranioSacral - Cerebral spinal fluid that flows through your skull and spinal cord has an inherent wave-like rhythm. Restrictions to this flow may have a negative effect upon the health and well-being of the whole person. Blockages can be caused by physical or emotional trauma. Through light touch and guided meditation, I assist you in accessing and expanding your body's energy.
Polarity - Our bodies have negatively and positively charged currents running through it at all times. When these currents of energy are disrupted we may lack vitality, focus and positivity. Imbalances can also be characterized by physical pain and illness. By channeling or stimulating the stagnant energy, our vital life force is free to move with less effort and restriction.
