Beliefs / Benefits

I believe…………….massage to be an artform.

A healing art.

 

The effects of this artform, loosely categorized as "wellness/stress management massage", range widely....for many, it brings renewed health and vigor, relaxation and pain relief, and often old tension patterns break free and old emotions are released.

 

It signals our brains to return to our true nature, a switch from our hectic everyday "fight or flight" mode into a calmer "rest, heal, and digest" mode to slow down and clear the mind, heal the body, and restore the spirit.

The sources of my bodywork are many...Swedish massage, Esalen Institute, oriental medicine, Reiki,  structural therapy, yoga,meditation, Lomi Lomi, polarity therapy and others.

 

Each session is unique, tailored to each person's needs.

 

I would be honored to be given the opportunity to work with you!
