Massage Therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, specifically the muscles, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments for the purpose of optimizing health.
Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Physical function can be maintained and improved, and physical dysfunction and pain can be relieved or prevented through massage.

Hot Stone Massage
Combining hot stone protocols with a full body massage provides a very healing experience.
The hot stones also expand blood vessels, which encourages blood flow throughout the body, and have a sedative effect that can relieve chronic pain, reduce stress and promote deep relaxation.
CranioSacral Therapy
CranioSacral therapy is a holistic healing practice that uses very light touching to balance the craniosacral system in the body, which includes the bones, nerves, fluids, and connective tissues of the cranium and spinal area.
According to Upledger, craniosacral therapy is ideally suited for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, headaches, chronic middle ear infection, pain, and general health maintenance. It is recommended for autism, fibromyalgia, heart disease, osteoarthritis, pneumonia, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic sinus infections, and gastroenteritis (inflammation of the lining of the stomach or small intestine). It is also used with other therapies to treat chronic fatigue syndrome, back pain, and menstrual irregularity. In addition, other craniosacral practitioners have reported benefits for eye dysfunction, dyslexia, depression, motor coordination difficulties, temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), hyperactivity, colic, asthma in babies, floppy baby syndrome, whiplash, cerebral palsy, certain birth defects, and other central nervous system disorders.
Magnetic Resonance Stimulation
There are over 1000 clinical studies worldwide supporting the effectiveness of Magnetic Resonance Stimulation.
Magnetic Resonance naturally vibrates every cell in the body promoting better nutrient transport into, and better waste removal out of, each and every cell.
Healthier cells means: better oxygenation of every cell improved metabolism and vitality PAIN RELIEF a stronger immune system
I usually incorporate Magnetic Resonance with my Massage or CranioSacral Therapy sessions. Magnetic Resonance sessions only are also available. (16 mins)
