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.
Cancer/Oncology Massage
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.
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.
Somatic Experiencing SE
Somatic Experiencing®️ is a body orienting trauma resolution approach to healing trauma developed by Dr. Peter A. Levine. Somatic Experiencing®️ is based on the idea that trauma is held within the nervous system. SE offers a framework for resolving fight, flight, freeze and fawning patterns in the body. Through the body orienting practices of SE a person may find relief from long held tensions and activation stored within the body. This practice can lead to a stronger connection between the mind and body, creating an increased sense of ease, self awareness and resilience with self, other people and the world. SE often provides a missing link for those working toward healing trauma.
SE sessions are not massage therapy, and are done fully clothed. The client may be invited to receive touch support for grounding and containment. Some specific touch support may be offered for calming the nervous system as indicated within each individual session, but not required.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. 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.
