Therapeutic Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.

According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.

What to Expect from Your First Visit
Where Will My Massage or Bodywork Session Take Place?
Your massage or bodywork session will take place in a warm, comfortable, quiet room. Soft music will be played to help you relax. You will lie on a table especially designed for your comfort.
Who Will Perform The Massage or Bodywork?
Your session will be conducted by a licensed professional who has received proper training, often in a variety of techniques. All massage and bodywork practitioners are required to be licensed by the state. Although no two massages are exactly alike, you may request a certain technique or modality.
Must I Be Completely Undressed?
Most massage and bodywork techniques are traditionally performed with the client unclothed; however, you may decide what amount of clothing you prefer to wear for your own comfort. You will be properly draped at all times during the session.
Will The Practitioner Be Present When I Disrobe?
No, the practitioner will leave the leave while you undress, relax onto the table, and cover yourself with the sheet and blanket provided. The therapist will knock on the door before entering to make sure you are ready and under the covers.
Will I Be Covered During the Session?
You will be properly draped at all times to keep you warm and comfortable. Only the area being worked on will be exposed. But at all times, your private parts will always remain covered.
What Parts of My Body Will Be Massaged?
You and the practitioner will discuss the desired outcome of your session. This will determine which parts of your body require massage. A typical full-body session will include work on your back, arms, legs, feet, hands, head, neck, and shoulders. You will not be touched on or near your genitals or breasts.
Will Oils Be Used?
A light non-greasy oil or lotion may be used to permit your muscles to be worked on without causing excessive friction to the skin. The oils and lotions used will hydrate your skin and will be readily absorbed so that you leave without having a greasy feeling or the need to shower afterwards.
What Will the Massage Or Bodywork Feel Like?
It depends on the techniques used. In a general Swedish massage, your session may start with broad, flowing strokes that will help to calm your nervous system and ease exterior muscle tension. As your body unwinds, pressure will gradually be increased to relax and relieve specific areas of muscular tension. You should communicate with your practitioner immediately if you feel any discomfort so that another approach may be taken. Massage and bodywork are most effective when your body is not resisting.
Are There Different Kinds of Massage and Bodywork?
Yes, there are numerous types of massage and bodywork. Various techniques utilize different strokes, including basic rubbing strokes, rocking movement, posture and movement reeducation, application of pressure to specific points, and more. Ask the practitioner about the methods she uses.
How Long Will The Session Last?
The average full-body massage or bodywork session lasts approximately one hour. A half-hour appointment only allows time for a partial massage session, for instance the neck, back and shoulders, or the legs and feet. Most people prefer anywhere from sixty to ninety minute sessions for optimal relaxation. Always allow relaxation time prior to and after your massage and, preferably, when you can relax for the rest of the day.
What Should I Do During the Massage or Bodywork Session?
Make yourself comfortable. The practitioner will either gently move you or tell you what is needed throughout the session (such as lifting your arm). Most people just close their eyes and completely relax without talking. A few, not many, people, however, like to talk during their session, but this generally does not allow their body and mind to completely relax.
How Will I Feel After The Massage or Bodywork Session?
Most people feel very relaxed. Some experience freedom from long-term aches and pains developed from tension or repetitive activity. After an initial period of feeling slowed down, people often experience increased energy, heightened awareness, and greater productivity, which can last for days. Since toxins are released from your soft tissues during a massage, it is recommended you drink plenty of water immediately following a massage and for the next 48 hours afterwards.
What Are The Benefits of Massage and Bodywork?
Massage and bodywork can help release chronic muscular tension and pain, improve circulation, increase joint flexibility, reduce mental and physical fatigue and stress, promote faster healing of injured muscular tissue, improve posture, and reduce blood pressure. Massage and bodywork are also known to promote better sleep, improve concentration, reduce anxiety, and create an overall sense of well-being.
Are There Any Medical Conditions That Would Make Massage or Bodywork Inadvisable?
Yes. That's why it's imperative that before you begin your session, the practitioner ask general health questions. It is very important that you inform the practitioner of any health problems or medications you are taking. If you are under a doctor's care, it is strongly advised that you receive written recommendation for massage or bodywork prior to any session. Many practitioners may require a recommendation or approval from your doctor.

Crystal Energy Healing / Access Bars
Do you remember the last moment in your life when you were totally relaxed, nurtured and cared for? Or has it been way too long since you received healing and kindness without any judgment for your body or your being. A Crystal Energy/Access Bars energy healing session is deeply relaxing and rejuvenating. With clothes on, attuned gemstones are placed strategically on your chakra energy points to correct energetic imbalances and blockages which are the root cause of all illness and disease. Did you know there are 32 points or "bars of energy" that run through and around your head, that when gently touched, effortlessly and easily release anything that doesn't allow you to receive? The "bars" store the electromagnetic component of all the thoughts, ideas, attitudes, decisions and beliefs that you have ever had about anything. This is an opportunity for you to let go of anything! The bars have assisted thousands of people to change many aspects of their life, including sleep, health, weight management, money, sex, relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, and so much more! At worst, it could be the best massage you've ever had. At best, your whole life can change for the better with little ease!
