Modalities I specialize in

Swedish Massage: Is a basic relaxing massage. It increases circulation of blood and lymph. It affects muscles throughout the body and increases secretions and excretions. And enhances skin condition.

Lymphatic Drainage: Is a gentle type of massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph. It uses a specific amount of pressure and rhythmic circular movements to stimulate lymph flow. Which can help to reduce edema in the body and increase healing.

Trigger Point Therapy: Highly effective technique used to alleviate chronic pain and dysfunction. Can be incorporated with a Swedish massage or used by itself for a more effective treatment. Uses firm pressure on concentrated knots in the body that have referred pain aka trigger points.

Reflexology: A modality specified to hands and/or feet. Uses manipulation on reflex areas that correspond to specific body parts and organs. * Can be used to get the effect of a full-body massage if there are contraindications for a full-body massage.

CranioSacral: A gentle, safe and effective manual therapy that works by facilitating the body's own natural healing powers to remove or lessen the negative effects stress has on the central nervous system.
