TREATMENTS

Remedial massage is beneficial for your body, whether you're an athlete, sitting for extended periods, or standing all day. It's an established therapeutic practice, with techniques that penetrate deeply into muscle layers, dissolving tension, breaking down knots and adhesions, releasing pressure points and reducing toxins. It enhances blood circulation within your muscles and body, thereby improving your flexibility and body awareness.

Bodywork includes therapies that enhance remedial massage and target whole body irregularities caused by injury, illness, stress and dis-ease. The goal of bodywork is to bring the whole, body-mind-spirit, into balance.

There are many types of bodywork, including Cupping, Reflexology and more(see below). 

Rapid Neurofascial Release, aka Rapid, or NFR, is a movement-based, trigger point technique which rehabilitates muscle-nerve-tendon-ligament function. Lymphatic Drainage stimulates the body to reduce inflammation by manually applying compressions, flushing and mobilizations techniques. Shiatsu is an acupressure based treatment using the body's meridians. 

Modalities like Reiki and Chakra therapy are ancient, whole body, energy-based healing approaches while polarity therapy is newer. 

Fascia interconnects muscles, bones, organs and skin in an elaborate and intricate network, holding everything in place. It is linked to our nervous system and our chi, life force energy. A form of traditional Chinese medicine, TCM, cupping is an 'ancient technique using suction to pull on your skin and increase blood flow and chi to the affected area.' Cupping is very effective in treating overall as well as specific areas of concern and pain. It can initially leave temporary markings on the skin which quickly resolve, within seven to ten days.
