Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes 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 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.
Trigger Point therapy may be included when necessary. Trigger point therapy is a style of bodywork that focuses on stimulating and releasing "trigger points" in your body. Trigger points are tender areas of tension similar to acupressure points, except they occur in the belly of the muscle rather than along the energy pathways of the body.

This massage combines Swedish and Deep Tissue techniques to release the most common tension found in neck, shoulders and back. This massage is perfect for massage parties where multiple people will receive bodywork. It is ideal for those who work in an office setting where the neck, shoulders and back muscles often are overworked due to body positioning for long periods of time, computer work (typing, mouse use) and stress.

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. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain. No clothes need to be removed during a Reiki treatment, although, shoes may be removed to allow a better connection with the Earth for grounding purposes. A Reiki treatment can be given while the client is seated in a chair or while lying on a massage table. Reiki can be performed with little or no contact to the client since it is an energy treatment. Gemstones may be used within the treatment to enhance the healing energy. Reiki can be included in a massage session for a nominal charge.
