Each Session is modified to meet the needs of every individual and a combination of techniques are used to accomplish these goals. I generally approach my work from a soft comfortable mat on the floor using Thai Massage which includes Energy opening, Swedish and or Deep Tissue and Attunement with it , or if it is better suited for you, I will take the approach from the Table using Esalen Massage, Thai, Swedish, Deep Tissue along with Reiki and Attunement Fused in. I have also been experimenting with Esalen on the Mat.
Thai Massage
• The Traditional version of this modality is performed on a thick mat on the floor with the client either being in stretchy, comfortable clothes or without clothing. I also offer it with a Swedish combination and Deep tissue. It is great for realigning the total mind/ body/ spirit!
It helps align joints and muscles, sooths aches and pains and creates a wonderful energy-opening experience for the entire body. In my oppinion, this type of massage is complete in itself. It lends to a deeper sense of a balanced well being in the Mind, Body and Spirit. Although I may still combine other modalites with it, I have found the results of recieving Traditional Thai Massage to be profound.
CranioSacral Therapy and Attunement
This is a subtle touch healing art. My main focus in using this
technique is:
•
To quiet the mind • Cause limbs and joints to loosen
•
To create balance
Esalen Massage
most noted for:
•
Long, slow connecting strokes using forearms and hands •
Breath awareness and Reverence •
Centering and Grounding Esalen also holds a great tradition of nurturing which is evident
in all of my sessions.
Deep Tissue
I do incorporate deep tissue into my routines. Please
inform me of any deep tissue requests or concerns.
Reflexology
It is most purely:
•
The use of pressure on ones foot or hands to effect organs or other parts of the body
•
It's also great for giving extra attention to our hands and feet, which are areas often over used and taken for granted.
Reiki
Reiki is essentially the allowing of your own inner healer to heal you. I like to say that I simply hold space for you to do this work. Many Clients have noted that Holding Space for them, esspecially in the beginning of their healing journey is a powerful element in allowing their healing process to unfold.
Swedish Massage
Perhaps the most widely used massage modality,
Swedish massage generally uses stokes towards the heart for
relaxation.
