Rather than taking a cookie-cutter approach, I listen to you first. After fully discussing your intentions and expectations for the session, I will customize your massage with varying pressure and speed by using therapy techniques such as Swedish, Neuromuscular, Deep tissue, Trigger point, Myofascial, Acupressure and Reiki energy work to meet your individual goals.

It is important to inform the therapist of any existing health issues so that your session can be appropriately tailored to your needs.

Long, smooth, flowing strokes and gentle kneading loosens tense muscles, promoting deep relaxation, calming and soothing of the body and mind.

***To release tension from the fibrous bands of the muscles, bones, nerves and joints by unblocking any scar tissue or adhesions due to injury in the muscles and surrounding tissues.

Using deep but gentle finger pressure on specific acupoints, blocked energy starts to release which allows the mind and body to relax. Acupressure produces a deep level of relaxation that allows us to reduce stress and strengthen the body’s natural healing.

The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word meaning “Rei” which means “Universal Life” and “Ki” which means “Energy”. It relies on the principal that there is a universal energy that flows to all living things and that we can call upon this energy for healing. The practitioner uses their hands as a means of directing the universal energy to the client’s body through specific holding of areas known as chakras. Reiki is a truly unlimited healing modality that helps the body create an environment that facilitates healing on all levels- physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.
