My Skills

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

A light touch total body technique which works with the craniosacral system to nourish the central nervous system and to promote and improve overall health and well-being. CST improves the body’s innate ability to self-heal and release tensions deep in the body. It relieves pain and dysfunction and ultimately produces profound positive changes to the body, mind & spirit. CST can address issues such as: migraine, chronic neck & back pain, stress & tension related disorder, motor coordination disorders, brain & spinal injuries, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, CNS disorders, learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, orthopedic issues and more.

 

RAINDROP TECHNIQUE

Uses a sequence of highly antimicrobial & antiviral essential oils combined to reduce inflammation. The oils are dispensed first to the feet and then, like little drops of rain, along the spine and gently massaged along the vertebrae and back muscles. These oils will continue to work within your system for up to one week and creates the ultimate in relaxation and healing.

 

REIKI

An unseen “universal life force energy,” exists in all things and has been part of the ancient wisdom of many cultures.  Reiki is the channeling of this energy, for the purpose of healing. It is administered through the non-invasive laying–on of hands in various areas that relate to the body chakra positions. The energy not only heals on the physical level but on the emotional and spiritual level as well. Many physical conditions (dis-eases) are manifestations of imbalances or blockages on these other levels of our being. Reiki facilitates our healing on all levels.

 

SWEDISH MASSAGE

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
