Techniques

Massage Techniques offered:

Swedish / Wellness Massage - Traditional massage using long flowing strokes and gentle kneading makes for a deeply relaxing experience.

Therapeutic / Structural Bodywork: This detailed, customized combination of techniques give specific focus to postural patterns and assists in restoring balance and motion. I may combine myofascial techniques and/or craniosacral techniques which are described below.

Lymphatic Massage: A deeply relaxing, light touch massage addressing the lymphatic system to detoxify and stimulate the production of white blood cells, which thus boost the immune system. This is also an effective massage for circulation issues and/or any forms of swelling.

Energy Work: Listening to the body and following the flow of the body as it unwinds and lets go of tension. An even deeper relaxation experience.

 

Myofascial Release*: An effective hands-on technique that provides sustained pressure into myofascial restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion.
CranioSacral*: Gentle hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the craniosacral system (membranes and the cerebral spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord).  This method works to release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the Central Nervous System.

*If you are looking for a session specifically using myofascial or craniosacral, I will refer you to other therapists who specialize in these two techniques. Even though I have training in them, they aren't an area of specialization for me and I want you to have the best of the best!

 



"Hot Spots" Massage: Choose an area on your body and come in for 15 minutes 3 times a week for 2 weeks and notice the difference!  $20 each session. *3x/week for 2 weeks is required.

(This is a great way to “clean out the stress”, bring healing to, and “get ahead” of those areas on your body that are constantly stressed. Coming in 3 times a week is key tackling that area of the pain or areas of tension. It can only enhance your productivity!)
