Her hope is to help each person feel more comfortable, safe & relaxed in body, mind & spirit.
Offerings & Modalities.
SWEDISH MASSAGE: Utilizes a variety of different strokes using light to medium pressure, focusing on relaxing superficial muscles, increasing blood circulation & calming the Nervous System.
DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE: Utilizes slow sustained strokes, direct pressure & friction movements that go across the muscle grain to target tension of muscles & fascia deeper within the body.
MYOFASCIAL RELEASE MASSAGE: A superficial modality that works specifically with the connective tissue of the body, otherwise known as “fascia,” rather than individual muscles. This technique utilizes slow, superficial, fluid gliding techniques without the use of oil to encourage healthy glide of the connective tissues, increased range of movement & decreased pain.
HEARTWORKS LOMI LOMI MASSAGE: A traditional style of Hawaiian massage passed down by the Kahunas of Maui. Strokes are inspired by the ocean waves utilizing long, full-body strokes while engaging the breath. Effective in releasing blockages, moving stagnant energy, & relaxing the Nervous System. This style of massage uses fluid strokes that range from light to deep depending on the needs of the client.
CUPPING: A traditional Chinese healing modality uses medical grade silicone suction cups releasing fascial adhesions & muscle tension by lifting, stretching & separating tissues to create space, decrease pain & increase function.
BODY GUA SHA: A traditional Chinese healing modality using a smooth-edged tool to create gentle superficial scraping strokes on the muscle. Gua Sha helps to break up fascial adhesions such as scar tissue. It may create red, rash-like dots called petechiae, symbolizing the healthy flow of “qi” & blood flow.
FACIAL GUA SHA: Very light strokes along the face & neck using a smooth edged stone tool or facial cups to relieve tension, puffiness, inflammation, & even sinus pressure by stimulating lymphatic drainage centers.
REIKI: A form of energy healing that originated in Japan utilizing light touch & presence to encourage healing energy to flow freely throughout the body, resulting in relaxation & reduced tension.
All modalities can be incorporated into any session upon request free of charge.
