Marita Guilderson

LMT

I Have been practicing massage therapy for 23 years. After graduating from The Florida Institute of Massage Therapy in Fort Lauderdale Fl. January 1990,I had a private practice for sixteen years in Islamorada, Florida before moving to High Springs, Florida with my family in 2006. I am moved daily by the connection we have with our body being an expression of our true selves as soulful beings. We are creating our experience of life and the world we live in, in every moment and every movement we make. I offer a variety of modalities interwoven in each session. My desired intention is to increase your energetic presence, awareness and comfort in movement, to increase mental clarity, and to develop vulnerability as an asset in life as a choice to feel your life through your body. I use numerous structural and tissue techniques to free the structure {bones} and tissue {muscles, connective tissue and nervous system} for more congruency in movement with each other. Whenever a new choice is discovered and previously restricted movement is allowed, healing begins. Regardless of which one happens first, conscious awakening or freedom of movement the other will follow. Massage is the manipulation of the soft tissues of the body which helps to ease stress and muscular tension, relieve pain from injuries and speed healing. It's time to replace stress, struggle and effort with effortless, creative living. Let go of the tension that we bring into our daily living and find the road to health, freedom of movement, emotional fulfillment, productivity and creativity. Life is a blessing and truly sacred.
