Myofascial release is a form of soft tissue therapy intended to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and positively affect your entire body. It does this by using massage techniques to stretch the fascia and release the bonds that exist between the fascia, muscles and bones. Fascia is the connective tissue that connects and covers all muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Direct myofascial release is sometimes known as deep tissue work. Indirect release applies light pressure and gently stretches the fascia; this allows for increased blood circulation and relief from pain.

Vibrational Percussion is a relaxing technique that uses gentle vibrations to unwind or "break up" adhesions and scar tissue in your fascia- a specific, advanced technique of fascial release. It is a very effective way to increase range of motion and joint mobility, improve posture and gate, and ease or even eliminate chronic pain. It is a painless method of managing pain and discomfort associated with conditions such as Parkinson's Disease, Fibromyalgia and others affecting the immune system. This work is offered over clothing, so no need to disrobe.

Swedish Massage is a very relaxing and therapeutic style of bodywork. It combines oil or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, traction, percussion and vibration to help your 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, increased circulation, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in your body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Keep in mind 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.

Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for women while pregnant, during labor and postpartum. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes. Using various techniques specially developed for the expecting mother, Pregnancy Massage helps release the pain and discomfort experienced throughout pregnancy. The benefits are profound, including emotional support, the relief of joint pain due to extra weight and postural imbalance, and improved breathing and relaxation.

Oncology Massage is a special type of massage developed specifically for cancer patients. Cancer patients have unique needs which must be addressed to make sure that a massage is beneficial to their health. I focus my attention on creating a gentle, nurturing environment for you to relax into. This work may be offered over clothing.

Geriatric massage is a form of massage designed to meet the specific needs of the elderly. It helps to improve blood and lymph circulation, relieve pain, and increase range of motion, while moisturizing and toning your skin. If you are elderly, geriatric massage can help you maintain and improve your overall health, as well as regain certain physical functions that have been reduced due to aging. In addition, since the elderly don't typically receive enough physical touch, this massage can also help alleviate symptoms of loneliness or depression.

Jin Shin Jyutsu is a disarmingly simple system of acupressure. It lays out a set of 26 "points" along the major energy pathways of your body. If one of your pathways becomes blocked, this creates stagnation in your energy field and leads to illness or discomfort. I use my hands to gently release any blockages in your energy pathways, and restore balance to your entire system. The whole experience is very relaxing, nurturing and therapeutic. This work is offered over clothing, so no need to disrobe.

Polarity therapy is a type of bodywork which is focused on the energy fields of the body, rather than the physical body itself. This type of body work is also called energy work, because the practitioner "adjusts" your skewed energy field to bring it into balance. During a polarity therapy session, the therapist and client usually work together in a very calm, relaxed environment. This work is offered over clothing, so no need to disrobe.

Visceral manipulation is a gentle technique of adjusting internal organs. It is especially effective to relieve discomfort after an abdominal or gastric surgery and actually can be a soothing experience. This work may be offered over clothing.

Chair massage is a popular way of relieving stress and releasing tension right in your home or workplace. You receive your massage in a specialized ergonomic chair which I bring to your location. In addition to the usual health benefits of massage, another benefit of chair massage is that it is done over the clothing. With seated massage, you can avoid the discomfort and awkwardness that you may feel in getting on and off a massage table. Also, chair massage sessions are usually shorter than traditional massage, making it convenient enough to fit into your busy schedule.

On-site massage brings your treatment to your home or office. You may prefer the luxury of extending your relaxed feeling after your massage at home. This is also an excellent means of providing bodywork to someone who is not mobile, unable to drive or bedridden.
