Energy Therapy is based on the belief that everyone (and everything) has a “life force,” and that the body needs to sustain its balance for optimum health. Many cultures have a word for life force. For the Lakota people, life force is referred to as "Ni." In Sanskrit it is called "Prana." Tibetans call it "Lung." In China it is "Qi" (Chi), and in Japan it is known as "Ki." Reiki Therapy cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, so you can begin to heal yourself from within. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the universal life force energy between us. The benefits of Reiki are wide ranging and include releasing habitual mental/emotional stress, alleviating chronic pain, and elevating your life. BOOK NOW
In a Mindfulness Massage, we journey together through the layers of muscles in your scalp, face, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, legs, feet, glutes, hips, and back. I use all-natural Jojoba extract to perform a variety of strokes, such as gliding, rolling, and kneading, to release tension in the superficial and deeper layers of soft tissue. Relaxing Swedish massage relieves stress, increases circulation, eases aches and pains, improves flexibility, boosts immune function, lowers blood pressure, and so much more. You will be able to shine the light of awareness throughout your entire body, bringing yourself fully present into the moment. "Present moment wonderful moment." --Thich Nhat Hanh BOOK NOW
I use heated bamboo tools to perform therapeutic massage techniques. Bamboo Fusion Massage releases muscle tension, relieves pain from soft tissue injury and overuse, speeds recovery, improves athletic performance, and facilitates the production of endorphins, which in turn eases pain and promotes relaxation and an overall sense of wellbeing. Warm bamboo massage can range from gentle and relaxing to deep and therapeutic, depending on your body's needs. The warmth of the tools helps to melt muscular tension with ease and allows me to work deeper with more flow and less force. The result is deep muscle relaxation, improved circulation, pain relief and muscle recovery, stress reduction and mental clarity, and enhanced energy flow and vitality. BOOK NOW

Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in disrobing for a traditional massage. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule. CONTACT ME for your next event!
