Therapeutic, or Neuromuscular, therapy is a tailored combination of massage techniques. It stimulates your body's ability to heal and releases your natural pain-killers. Service includes use of Himalayan heated stones.
Myofascial Release - stretches tissue (fascia) to release restrictions and improve range of motion. Indirect release uses light pressure and gentle stretches to increase blood circulation and relieve pain.
Deep Tissue - focuses on areas of chronic stress from misalignment, repetitive motion, and/or past injury. Open communication between therapist and client is crucial to manage discomfort. Soreness is common after treatment, and bruising can occur. Increased water intake after massage helps flush released toxins.
Trigger Point Therapy - stimulates and releases tension from point-specific areas related to physical, mental, and/or emotional stress. Pressure used can be painful at times, yet effects are lasting and profoundly transformative. Open communication between therapist and client is imperative to manage discomfort. Soreness and potential for bruising are likely. Increased water intake post massage is strongly recommended.
Stimulation of your immune system through gentle, rhythmic and relaxing movement of lymph through the body. Relieves pressure and improves the function of your defense system.

Reiki can be received during massage, or in a separate fully-clothed session.
Your brain and nervous system are ENERGY highways. When this transportation system is not functioning well, imbalances enable illnesses to develop. REIKI balances energetic flow to promote deep relaxation, remove blocks, and reduce stress to enhance health and well-being. The energy does not come "from" the practitioner, nor is it "directed." Your inner self directs Reiki in the same manner your inner self renews cells in your body.

Done only as an add-on service to your session, "smudging" is practiced in many cultures. Be it Native American, Catholic, Jewish, Hindu, etc., it is used to cleanse a person, place or object of negative energies or influences. Like taking an energetic shower, or deep metaphysical cleansing, smoke from dried sage changes the ionic composition of the air, and can have a direct effect on reducing your stress response.
For those not liking or wanting to smell like sage, lavender may be used. In herbal medicine, lavender is effective against infectious disease. When used for smudging, lavender is great for energetic protection, positive energy, and calming of the mind as it soothes your nervous system.
At your request, FOR AN ADDITIONAL $5.00, smudging to your vehicle can also be done.
