Traditional Therapeutic Massage
Traditional Therapeutic Massage combines the long relaxing strokes of a swedish massage with deep tissue modalities to administer the most appropriate massage for each individual client. Pressure is modified based on personal preference and the specific needs of each individual.
This massage is completely customizable - from the pressure being used to the areas of focus. I am able to integrate different modalities into the therapeutic massage, such as cupping therapy, Graston technique, hot stone use, and stretching.
I am also qualified to work with the medically frail, clients currently battling cancer - or those who have previously battled cancer, TMJ dysfunction, clients who are pregnant, and lymphatic concerns. If you have any questions regarding technique, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Massage is most commonly performed with the client disrobed while the therapist utilizes full draping for comfort and modesty of the client. However, disrobing is not mandatory. Massage can be successfully done with the client fully dressed if that is preferred. Comfortable athletic clothing is recommended if this is the case.
Spinal Flow Technique
Awaken the spinal wave in your body with Spinal Flow Technique. Your body is full of Life Force Energy and has the ability to heal. As you increase the flow of Life Force Energy it will move through your body as Spinal Flow. This supports healing and creates ease throughout the body. Length of this session depends on you and your body, but in general, is approximately 30 minutes. The flow through the spine is tracked with every contact and your body is monitored to be sure there is change during the session.
Spinal Flow sessions can be done privately or in a group setting. Your practitioner can work with 2 people at a time. Call to inquire about a group session.
Lymphatic Drainage
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy aims to gently and rhythmically move the lymph through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system. As both a preventative and remedial technique, LD can be used for a wide range of purposes including faster recovery from injury, reduction of swelling and discomfort from pregnancy, and strengthened resistance to illness.
Reiki
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that 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 remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. 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.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Pregnancy Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.
La Stone Massage
Similar to Hot Stone Therapy, La Stone Massage is a style of massage where hot and cold stones are placed at specific sites on your body to deepen relaxation and promote circulation in your muscles. Muscles that are heated and cooled 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.
