Massage Treatments

You will enter a warm, quiet, peaceful room, be asked to be seated, and offered filtered rainwater. After a client form and a discussion is completed your nurturing will begin including being wrapped in warm towels. Allow for approximately 1.5 hours for the entire session.

I meet each patient with quiet presence to insure they receive the best possible treatment from me. This is done through consultation with you and using my experience and intuition. In doing so any, or a combination, of the following three modalities may be used in the treatment:

 

Biodynamic Craniosacral is gentle and very effective body work that facilitates an ‘undoing’ in the body and mind, releasing tension and pain.

Biodynamic Craniosacral involves contact to the body with gentle palpation and focused awareness which encourage the release of tension, pain, and discomfort. It facilitates balance and alignment and has a positive affect on mobility and movement. There are many mind/body benefits to this deeply relaxing treatment and it is appropriate for all ages and ailments. You can remained clothed throughout the session.

Myofascial Release is a body-led therapy which uses sustained pressure and light stretching to encourage the release of tension from the muscles, fascia and skeletal systems of the body. This helps with pain reduction, freedom of movement, increased circulation, and more.

Traditional massage using essential oils to deeply relax and rejuvenate the body.
