Integrative Massage
Swedish massage with Reiki. A very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes and 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.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Sports Massage
Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics. Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term. Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates. Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body's natural immune function.
Cupping
Guasha
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of massage therapy based on traditional Chinese medicine of Qi meridians. The word Shiatsu comes from two Japanese words - “shi” (finger) and “atsu” (pressure). In addition to the direct stimulation of pressure points along the energy pathways of your body, gentle stretching techniques are applied over a wider area of the body to integrate the point work and encourage the flow of Chi/Qi (energy) throughout the body. Shiatsu is a meditative healing art that honors the body, mind and spirit.
We take the first 30min of the session to discuss what you feel is going on in your body and your energy levels, along with your goals and setting an intention together for your session. We follow this with an evaluation of the energy in your organs and meridians through the face, tongue, and wrist pulse.
*This is done fully clothed so clients are asked to wear or bring a clean set of clothes that they are comfortable moving in. Thai, sweatpants, and a t-shirt are great examples. Long hospital grip socks are provided.
*The session is fully clothed, but guasha and cupping add on can be done solely to the back (not lower body). Traditional Chinese fire cupping is utilized under this session.
*May use Chinese Moxibustion for depleted areas with client consent
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.
