My Services

Swedish Massage

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

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body.I use various techniques with my hands, knuckles, and elbows and apply focused pressure on “problem areas” or “trigger points” 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.

Sports Massage

Sports Massage is a type of massage designed for highly active people who engage in athletics.Engaging in sports is harsh on the body and can often lead to injuries in both the short and long term.Sports Massage enhances performance and prolongs a sports career by helping to prevent injury, reduce pains and swelling in the body, relax the mind, increase flexibility, and dramatically improve recovery rates.Sports Massage is also highly effective in aiding the rapid recovery of an athlete from an injury by encouraging greater kinesthetic awareness and in turn promoting the body’s natural immune function.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet.Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body.According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into the feet.Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.

This treatment includes your choice of a scented bath fiz 10 minute foot soak. Magazines and music are provided, but if you prefer to bring yur own, feel free.

With remaining time I end your treatment with a soothing neck and head massage to balance you from head to foot.

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy healing that cleanses and balances the energy patterns in the body. As a result, the body’s natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum mental, emotional, and physical health. During a session, I work in energetic connection with you in order to remove blockages, detoxify your energy system, and restore your vital life force energy. The Reiki technique utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.

Herbal Medicine

Herbal Medicine is the therapeutic use of plants, and is one of the oldest forms of health care in the world. Depending on your specific needs, I recommend specific herbal formulas that produce and contain a variety of chemical substances that act upon the body. Different herbs have been effectively used for a wide range of medicinal purposes including pain relief, hormone balancing, sleep enhancement, improved digestion, skin soothing, and stress relief. The herbs I use in my practice are in tincture form and are picked in a sustainable manner from pesticide free farms in the Belizian Rain Forest. They are prepared by hand and are all rich in Nutrients. After carefully studying my clients' health history, symptoms and other conditions, I recommend the tincture or tinctures that are right for them and instruct them on dosage, contraindications and possible side effects. All tinctures I use are safe and effective.
