Cranial Sacral Therapy:
A Gentle technique that is based on balancing the cranial and sacral pulses which emanate from the base of the skull and the tail bone. By restoring balance to the nervous system, deep relaxation and alleviation of tension patterns in the body are experienced.
Myofascial Release:
A Gentle stretching of the fascia, or tissue that holds the body together. This tissue comprises muscles as well as organs and begins the process of unwinding areas that hold great tension. With this unwinding of tissue, more mobility, and release of muscle tissue can result.
Trigger Point Therapy:
This is a deep massage utilizing the use of specifically applied pressure to the nerve junctions or trigger points within the muscle tissue. By applying pressure to these points, release of tight muscles and pain result.
Lymphatic Drainage:
Lymphatic Drainage Therapy consists of a manual massage, performed by a lymphatic drainage therapist. A lymphatic drainage massage primarily focuses on specific lymph nodes and points of the body, as well as the natural flow of the lymphatic system. Proponents of lymphatic drainage believe that the process will reduce blockages of the lymphatic system, which in turn promotes a healthier body.
Hot Stone Therapy:
A combination of Heat, Massage and Aromatherapy, Hot Stone Therapy is derived from the healing practices of the Native Americans of the Southwest. Basalt stones are heated and then placed on the chakras and used to deeply massage the entire body. The infiltration of deep layers of muscle tissues leaves the client very relaxed as well as assisting in the detoxification of the body.
Rain Drop Therapy:
Using very high grade essential oils, a relaxing massage is administered and then followed with application of various oils creating a wonderful stimulating experience to the senses. The oils are great for various spinal disorders, help the to boost the immune system and give strength to the nervous system.
Reiki:
A gentle “laying on of hands” in which the KI or universal life force energy is transmitted from the practitioner to the client. Deep relaxation, release of negative emotional patterns, and alleviation of pain are some of the benefits of this Japanese healing art.
Chair Massage:
Administered in a special massage chair and using Swedish, Reiki, Trigger Point and Deep Tissue techniques this massage is great for neck and shoulder pain as well as midback, arms, hands and wrists. The client remains fully clothed throughout the massage.
Pilates:
In a private pilates class, we will utilize the 34 exercises in a traditional mat class with props and modifications that are suited to your specific body type, challenges and goals. With individualized attention we can gear the class toward a more therapeutic and rehabilitative and results oriented outcome. Pilates exercises help to elongate and strengthen the core muscle groups that affect posture and breathing. We teach your body how to regain a healthy posture as well as strengthen and tone your physique.
Kundalini Yoga teaches you the techniques and awareness to stay healthy. You gain a strong immune system, good circulation, and an awareness of the impact of your habits. Kundalini Yoga also develops your relationship to your mental potential. You learn to use the clarity of the neutral, intuitive, comprehensive mind. Through meditation, you can calm the mind and develop your intuition to recognize what is real and important to you. The power of Kundalini Yoga lies in the experience. It goes right into your heart and extends your consciousness so you may have a wider horizon of grace and of knowing the truth. Ultimately, you come to understand your existence in relationship to the universe and understand you already are, and this brings you to the practical experience of Infinity. You can then radiate creativity and Infinity in all aspects of your daily life. ~ Yogi Bhajan
