MASSAGE
INFORMATION
Swedish Massage – This has been a favored massage technique for many years because of its health promoting properties. Swedish massage works the tension from the muscles through deep tissue manipulation, releasing toxic accumulation of lactic acid and increasing the range of motion. Circulation, effective elimination and healthy immunity are all aided by regular Swedish massage treatment. People who are involved in sports, fitness training, dance or other physical pursuits can benefit from Swedish massage, as well as those seeking to reduce the effects of stress upon their bodies.
Body Work Sessions – Body Work are massage sessions that incorporate a balanced combination of differing techniques selected by the therapist to address specific conditions that are tailored to each client’s needs.
Cranial Sacral Therapy – A thorough, yet noninvasive technique that adjusts the cranial bones in the head and neck to relieve pressure that causes stress, tension and pain within the body. Assessment and treatment are accomplished through feather-light touch and energetic attunement to the body’s core rhythms. Cranial Sacral Therapy has been found helpful in the treatment of many acute and chronic health problems, including hypertension, trauma-related pain, migraine headache and back pain. Deep relaxation and relief from stress are among its most important benefits.
Myofascial Release – The gentle manipulation of the fascia tissue has a profound effect on health regeneration and maintenance. The fascia is the continuous layer of connective tissue surrounding and permeating muscles, nerve vessels and bones in the system. Small amounts of pressure applied by a skilled therapist stretch and soften the fascia, resulting in improved movement, reduction of or the elimination of chronic muscular pain and stress relief.
The underlying principle of Myofascial Release Therapy is to allow the body to direct the practitioner as to the degree of stretching and manipulation needed to address distress in any given part of the body. The procedure is done by working the entire body, gently stretching and pulling, to release and remove blockages throughout your system. After the session you experience a greater sense of relaxation.
Foot Reflexology – The ancient art of Reflexology is a healing technique in which the energy points on the bottom of the feet are stimulated to help cleanse, heal and revitalize corresponding organs and glands in the body. Digestion, elimination, immune system function, vital energy and stress management are all enhanced through reflexology. Many clients look forward to their reflexology sessions and view them as a valuable noninvasive and inexpensive method of health management.
Reiki – Reiki is a therapeutic touch science in which universal energy is channeled by the practitioner to promote healing within the body of the recipient. Reiki has won rave reviews here in the West in the last decade, as millions have been introduced to this gentle, yet profound technique. Our Reiki practitioners are gifted professionals committed to this long-standing healing art.
