Modalities ranging from light to deep touch. All techniques have been researched and proven to have many health benefits. Sessions can include any of the following modalities to accommodate the client's needs.

CranioSacral: A gentle, non-invasive treatment that modifies and corrects restrictions in the CranioSacral system by improving the flow of cerebral spinal fluid to promote wellness and enhance the body's self correction/regulation mechanism.

Usui Reiki (translated as Universal Energy): A light, hands-on touch focusing on twelve areas of the body, as well as areas of specific pain or discomfort. Reiki balances the energy system of the body and encourages deep relaxation, so that the body can work most effectively to heal itself and to relieve stress.

Deep Tissue Massage: Myofascial Therapy, Neuromuscular Therapy & Sports Massage. Deep tissue massage is very beneficial for repetitive injuries. Rather than working head to toe, the session would concentrate on the muscles involved with the area of injury. Sometimes the muscle creating the pain is actually in a different location. For example, the two most common muscles involved with back pain are Psoas (which you access through the abdominals) and Gluteus Medius (a hip muscle). Even though the generic term is "deep tissue", pressure is within your comfort level, and you should be relaxed and able to breath.

Swedish Relaxation Massage: The application of gentle, soothing strokes from head to toe, which relaxes and rejuvenates the body. This is the most common form of massage and what most people think of when they hear the word “massage.” It is often viewed as a pampering self-indulgence (which it is). However, there are many health benefits that make Swedish Massage therapeutic in nature. Research has proven that massage can decrease stress signals and increase circulation throughout the body, promoting a calm sense of well-being.

Pregnancy & Postpartum Massage: A nurturing touch designed to help alleviate stress and bring balance to the body. Pregnancy massage can increase circulation for both mother and baby, and decrease muscle strain from the growing demands on the mother's body. Postpartum massage can aid in restoration of abdominal muscles and alleviate muscle fatigue from labor and delivery. It can also help alleviate physical and emotional stress of the new demands in the mother’s life.
