It is not so long ago that massage was considered a luxury. Today it has been proven that Massage is Medicine for the Body. It allows the body's energy to flow evenly.
The toll that stress plays within our body reaches a point when one is unable to feel comfortable and pain free. Massage helps to relieve the tension and emotional anxiety that causes that pain and discomfort within the nervous system.
Migraine, neck pain, lower back pain, chronic fatigue and carpel tunnel syndrome are a few of the resulting symptoms placing a heavy load on our central nervous system. Developing a sense of awareness of the energies within us helps us to recognize our self-healing power. To balance our flow of energy often requires a combination of massage treatments and breath control. Breath is life. Here is a selection of the modalities I offer my clients.
Treatments
Swedish Massage
Swedish massage is a full body treatment. Stroking, kneading, percussion, vibration and friction. The benefits are geared towards muscle relaxation and blood flow.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) (Dr. Vodder Method)
Manual lymph drainage is a soft, gentle, flowing rhythmic European massage. Precise hand movements working on the surface of the skin enhance the movement of the lymph vessels that carry toxins and are pathways throughout the body. They are our garbage collector. This therapeutic application has powerful cleansing, relaxing, pain relieving, and immunological effects which are a part of the immune system The benefits are the release of toxins, reduction of edema, pain and the promotion of rest and deep relaxation of the nervous system.
Pre And Post Cosmetic Surgery
Here the MLD method of treatment is used and the benefits are the reduction of pain, swelling and bruising to hasten healing. Today many cosmetic surgeons recommend MLD to their clients.
Craniosacral Therapy (CST)
This is a gentle hands on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the CST system, consisting of the membranes and fluid surrounding the brain and spinal column. Any restrictions in the membranes of this vital system can directly affect all aspects of the performance of the central nervous system. The benefits of this therapy are relaxation, allowing the body to self correct and are proven to reduce post traumatic stress disorders, migraines, neck and back pain, fibromyalga. CST relies to a large extent on the performance of the body's inherent self corrective mechanisms. A wide range of sensory motor and neurological problems are improved.
Aroma Therapy
This is a full body massage using the highest quality of essential oils derived from plants. The action of an essential oil on the body is holistic. Aroma therapy aids the body's own natural healing process on many levels.
Deep Tissue Massage
Massage directed towards chronic pain, addressing the root causes, releasing trigger points in the tissues (trapped energy in the tissues), bringing the muscles back to normal function therefore improving posture.
Pre & Post Natal
The MLD is applied frequently to encourage the release of tension in the shoulders and the lower back as well as the reduction of water retention. This is a gentle full body hands on massage. It sometimes incorporates the use of tuning forks for sound therapy and vibration (which the baby as well as mother loves), promoting a deep sense of well being and relaxation, physically, emotionally and spiritually. This shows a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in circulation.
