Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility. It can be combined with CST for those that want to relax on a deep level.
CranioSacral Therapy (CST)
CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle yet powerful technique that releases tensions deep in the body to relieve pain, dysfunction and mental stress, as well as improve whole body health. It does this by optimizing the movement of cerebrospinal fluid through the spine and around the skull. Developed by physician William Sutherland, this therapy provides a very soothing and relaxing healing experience. CST is increasingly used as a preventative health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and its effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction. It is extremely relaxing and can be used in combination with other types of massage.
Chair Massage
Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.
Combination
Each session can be customized for your needs. I have been a massage therapist for over 20 years and have taken many additional classes than are mentioned here. I love to combine several modalities to make a session that is perfect for you. We can do 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. Spa services like heated stone massage and body wraps can be combined with massage to make you feel like a new person! Please do not hesitate to communicate techniques and bodywork that you like (or don't like!) so you can have the best experience possible.
Spa Parties/Corporate Groups/Weddings
I love to do customized spa parties and corporate groups. It can be just 1 massage therapist or we can accommodate larger groups with multiple therapists and if you want other services such as body wraps, facials, nails, makeup, hair. Please let me know your wants and needs and I will be happy to set up an event just for you.
