I offer a variety of Massage Therapies, such as:
- Swedish Massage
'Relaxation' massage, which refers to a variety of techniques, such as long kneading strokes and gentle stretching, designed to relax the more superficial layers of muscles. This can promote feelings of tranquility and well-being, while gently releasing toxins from the muscles.
- Deep Tissue Massage, specializing in Trigger Point Therapy
A more therapeutic massage technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. Trigger Point Therapy is one of many techniques that helps to release chronic patterns of tension in the body, break up and eliminate scar tissue and improve range of motion and flexibility.
- Hot Stone Massage
Used in conjunction with a Swedish or Deep Tissue massage, the use of hot stones helps to release knots and tense muscles on a much deeper level.
- Pregnancy Massage
Massage techniques geared to relieving the muscle cramps, spasms and pain often encountered in the lower back, neck, hips and legs during pregnancy. Besides reducing swelling, back/hip and sciatic pains, Pregnancy massage can help with hormonal regulation (which also can lead to fewer complications during birth & added newborn health benefits), improved circulation and better sleep.
- Rejuvenating Facial Massage
A great procedure to incorporate with any anti-aging program! This facial massage focuses on releasing tight muscles, wrinkles and expression lines around the face, while also including massage techniques of the scalp, neck and shoulders. Also helps to relieve symptoms of TMJ, sinus congestion, headaches and eyestrain.
- Raindrop Massage
The Raindrop Massage is a method of using massage techniques, reflexology, and essential oils to bring structural and electrical alignment, aid detoxification and provide a beneficial harmony & wellness between Mind, Body & Spirit.
- Reflexology Foot Soaks (Brunswick)
A gentle form of therapeutic treatment that believes that areas of the feet, hands and ears 'reflex' or correspond to all parts of the body, including major organs.
- Side-by-side Massages (Brunswick)
I also offer Alternative Therapies, such as:
- Reiki
Reiki is the Japanese word meaning 'Universal Life Force Energy'. The concept is that we all have energy flowing through and around our bodies. When that energy is blocked or low, it can lead to a variety of symptoms, ranging from pain in specific body parts to general stress, tension and/or anxiety. Reiki involves the channeling of energy from Reiki Master/practitioner to client, to enhance the body's natural ability to heal itself through the balancing of energy.
- Universal Crystaline Grid Reconnective Healing
Based on the works of Dr. Eric Pearl & his approach to the new healing frequencies of light, information & universal intelligence.
