MASSAGE THERAPIES

Therapeutic Massage manipulates soft tissue to restore balance, relax muscles, soothe the nervous system and increase range of motion.  It improves circulation and the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells and cleanses the tissue of metabolic waste.  Therapeutic massage generally includes the entire body with special attention to areas of restriction.

Rehabilitative Therapy will focus on specific problem areas in order to improve range of motion, decrease joint and muscle pain and generally improve the quality of life for those suffering with pain.  The need for rehabilitative therapy can come from auto accidents, surgery, falls, sports injuries or any other source of trauma to the body.  It utilizes a variety of intuitive techniques that can aide piriformis syndrome, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injuries, thoracic outlet syndrome, TMJ and whiplash.

Deep Tissue Massage focuses on realigning deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue and physically breaks down adhesions that block circulation and cause pain, limited movement and inflammation.  It releases the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas.  Sometimes there can be stiffness or discomfort after a deep tissue massage that can be relieved thru the use of ice.

Sports Massage can help prevent injuries, prepare the body for athletic activity, maintain it in optimal condition, and help athletes to recover faster from workouts and injuries.  Each sport has different physical demands and uses muscle groups in a different way.  Sports massage is designed to address those specific concerns.

Neuromuscular Therapy can relieve pain by applying static pressure on specific myofascial trigger points.  It utilizes tissue tone, fibrosity and hypersensitivity as signals for the therapist to move from an investigative mode to treatment in an instant.

Foot Reflexology treats your feet to a variety of foot massage techniques, stimulating and energizing all body systems while relieving pain.  Beneficial for all types of foot pain, it relaxes tension in the feet as well as releases restrictions that can lead to knee and hip pain.

Prenatal & Postpartum Massage

Prenatal massage is tailored to the needs of pregnant women and can relieve neck, back and sciatica pain, reduces swelling, improves sleep, circulation and mobility, and helps you feel good.

Postpartum Massage helps restore the abdominal muscles and uterus to a normal state, accelerates the realignment of hips and pelvic structure, aides in recovery from C-section delivery and revives the emotional state.

Hot Stone Massage is suited for those who tend to feel chilly, have cold feet or those with muscle tension who prefer a lighter massage.  Smooth, flat stones are heated and placed at key points on the body.  The massage therapist may also hold the stones and use them to massage certain areas of the body.  The warmth of the hot stones improves circulation and calms the nervous system.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle treatment that utilizes the brain, spinal cord and nervous system.  It can release restrictions throughout the body, including the head, spine, muscles and organs.  This deeply relaxing therapy relieves pain and reduces stress in both the mind and body.  The incredible and magical effects experienced by clients occur because of it’s light touch and cellular altering capabilities.  Clients may stay fully clothed for this therapy or can combine it with massage.  CST is recommended for those who

have experienced physical trauma, are in severe or chronic pain, are sensitive to touch or are uncomfortable receiving massage.  To learn more about CST and it’s anatomy go to:  www.HealingEnergyMassage.net

Structural Integration (SI) focuses on the connective tissue called fascia, which protects the muscles. The fascia can become stiff resulting in poor posture and health issues.   SI manipulates deep tissue to release stress patterns, help the client move and function with greater freedom, and effortlessly maintain a more upright posture.  Multiple sessions are typically required to complete a treatment regimen.

Lymph Drainage can aide the body systems that drain fluids, regenerate tissue, maintain a healthy immune system and filter out toxins.  Therapists use flat hands to simulate gentle, specific wave-like movements.  These subtle maneuvers activate lymph and interstitial fluid circulation as well as stimulate the functioning of the immune and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Trauma Release can free energy trapped in the tissues of the body caused by an external force. Once a physical injury has healed, the impact of the force that caused the injury can stay behind as trapped energy, or energy cyst.  This is one reason old injuries can linger for years.  When the trapped energy is dispersed it allows for more complete healing.  Trauma Release is one of the few therapies that can benefit a fresh injury that is extremely painful.

Somato-Emotional Release (SER) is a therapeutic process that expands on the principles of CranioSacral Therapy to help rid the mind and body of the residual effects of emotional trauma.  Suppressed emotions can inhibit complete physical healing resulting in adverse affects to the body.  Have you had emotional experiences in the past that continue to bother you today?  Do you have feelings of indecision or feel mentally and emotionally stuck?  Releasing trapped emotions can prompt the relief of obsessive thoughts, provide a greater sense of emotional freedom, and allow for more complete physical healing.

Healing Touch is derived from an ancient technique called laying-on of hands, it is an energy based approach to health and healing used to accelerate wound healing, relieve pain, promote relaxation, prevent illness and ease the dying process.  Healing Touch practitioners use their hands on and above the body to clear, energize, and balance energy.  Like Reiki, Healing Touch is based on the belief that vital energy flows through the human body.

Intuitive Touch is a unique approach to energy healing.  The goal is to discover significant energetic blocks that are contributing to physical and emotional pain.  It relies on the intuitive connection between client and therapist to quickly identify those restrictions in need of immediate attention. Subtle hands-on therapies such as Trauma Release, Somato-Emotional Release, CranioSacral Therapy, Accupressure and Chi Kung Therapeutic Touch are utilized to release the restrictions.  During a session, energy meridians and chakras are cleared and the body is grounded, centered and balanced resulting in healing at multiple levels.
