Types of Therapeutic Services and Lymphatic Drainage

Therapeutic Muscle Massage

Using the power of touch, I will locate areas of tension and use different techniques to move clients into a state of relaxation.

During your customized muscle massage, your tight muscles tend to relax and the pain associated with chronic tension is relieved. Increased circulation will supply more oxygen and nutrition to your muscles and help rid them of metabolic waste. Blocked, deadened areas are thus able to respond to sensory input again. Massage also stimulates the release of the body’s own pain killers — endorphins — balances emotional state, calms the mind.

Shiatsu

Shiatsu uses touch to bring balance to your body.

It is a blend of ancient and modern bodywork techniques that balances the body’s energy system. Shiatsu puts the body into a state of deep relaxation and allows it to rejuvenate and heal.

Shiatsu has a positive effect on the physical, mental and emotional levels. Shiatsu affects the movement of energy known as “chi”/”ki”, which circulates throughout the body on pathways, or meridians. By applying pressure along these meridians and other specific areas of the body, the energy balances as it flows to the organs, glands, muscles, nerves and blood. I may also use stretching techniques, massage, and structural release to achieve harmony with in the energy system.

Shin Tai

Is a comprehensive, precise and highly effective bodywork modality. It expands on traditional shiatsu practice by incorporating structural alignment, craniosacral therapy, and fascia release to support the whole body.

Shiatsu and shin ati are also very effective in opening your awareness to what you need for healing on a physical and emotional level.

Shiatsu and shin tai are clothed treatments. Loose fitting clothing is best.

Shiatsu and shin tai are also very effective in bringing your awareness to what your body is telling you that it needs, as well as how your emotions are manifesting as physical experience.

Craniosacral Therapy

Is an alternative therapy where by I would place my hands on your body (ie: head, rib cage, hip bones, and feet) which allows me to tune into the craniosacral rhythm. I gently work with the spine, skull, cranial sutures, diaphragm and fascia. In this way, the restrictions of nerve passages are said to be eased, movement of cerebrospinal fluid through the spinal chord is said to be optimized, and misaligned bones are said to be restored to their proper position.

This therapy is great for treating post traumatic stress, neck and back pain, migraines, TMJ and chronic pain conditions such as fybromyalgia.

Access Bars

Involves the activation of 32 points or “bars” around the head by light touch which deletes or releases thought patters that no longer serve a person – patterns involving all area’s of one’s life (healing, body, control, awareness, money, aging, peace and kindness, and more.

These 32 points on the head can become an energetic dumping ground and when released and cleared the energy can flow freely giving you more awareness and choice in your life.

ACCESS BARS can be its own 60 min treatment or can be a powerful addition to your bodywork treatment.
