Customized Massage Therapy

An intuitive combination of Swedish, Deep Tissue Massage the Lauterstein Method, as well as Neuromuscular therapy, into which I blend techniques fromover two decades of modalities studied: Acupressure, Myofascial Release, Reflexology, Trigger Point therapy, Body Mobilization Techniques, Craniosacral therapy, Neuromeningeal Manipulation, hydrotherapy and therapeutic stretching. Sessions are customized for each individual and focused attention is given to areas of discomfort, pain and restriction. All sessions include organic massage cream, aromatherapy upon request, hot towels and CBD cream upon request.

Craniosacral therapy is an amazing system for helping the body release pain and restore homeostasis in a gentle, non-invasive way. Using cues from the craniosacral rhythm (the flow of cerebro-spinal fluid from the brain through the spinal cord), we can tap into areas of restriction. A session will include listening and gentle treatment for helping the body release the restrictions in the craniosacral system, namely the skull, spinal cord and meninges of the brain and spinal cord. By releasing these areas, we can experience release of deeply held tension, pain and anxiety. This work may be received while fully clothed or may be worked into your massage therapy session.

As a certified pre-natal therapist I work diligently, deeply and safely to provide real pain relief, as well as nurturing touch. I believe that being comfortable and pain-free during pregnancy allows you to prepare more fully, with presence, awareness and connection, for your child's arrival. Some of the benefits include relief of stress on weight-bearing joints, reduced edema, increased skin elasticity, improved circulation, relief of muscular aches and pains, enhanced immune system function and more. Post-partum massage aids in restoring the body’s natural state through circulatory stimulation, lymphatic drainage, alleviating sore muscles, and helping to facilitate connective tissue healing. I have many different pillows, bolsters and cushions to provide comfort through all the trimesters.

Light touch chakra based healing sessions focused on balancing energy in the body, releasing areas of overactive energy, and restoring areas in need. My work incorporates my attunements in Reiki, techniques from Barbara Brennan Healing Method, and my studies with Nancy Crossthwaite, LMT of Lotus Energy Institute. Usui Reiki level I-II certified.

This work, as designed by J.P. Barral, D.O, MRO(F) and Alain Croibier, D.O., MRO(F), focuses on nerve restriction within the body. Fixed nerves cause an imbalance in the pressure system of the nerve, as well as the effectiveness of the neural pathway. Through nerve conductivity, we can release nerves to rebalance their glide and movement. This work can be helpful in post-trauma recovery, whiplash treatment, after surgical procedures, for opening up the nerves that feed our reproductive organs and fertility, eczema and other skin problems, foot and leg pain and issues, and for nerve pain or numbness. I have been studying and incorporating this work since 2009.
