Intuitive Healing Massage

Service Description

Whether your goal is to relieve pain, help heal an injury, improve circulation, reduce stress, or increase relaxation, massage can help! However, if you're also looking to improve immune function and encourage healing, I'm your gal! With skill and care, I provide healing touch to promote general wellbeing. Your 60-minute hands-on massage will begin with an assessment to determine your target areas and customize your massage. We will end with an overview of your massage, along with a plan to support your wellness goals. Together we will create a plan for your wellness journey! Massage is an invitation into the mind, body, and spirit and with intention, can encourage healing. I focus on releasing blockages, correcting conditioned patterns, and creating harmony through balance. Every massage is tailored to your needs and the variety of massages I offer are: Swedish: This is a gentle form of massage that uses long strokes, kneading, deep circular movements, vibration and tapping. It helps you feel relaxed and energized. Deep Tissue: This massage technique uses knuckles, elbows, and hands with slower, more forceful strokes to target the deeper layers of muscle. It's commonly used to help relieve severe muscle tension and damage from injuries. Deep tissue is especially effective if you have postural problems or chronic muscle pain and tension. (Avoid deep tissue massage if you have inflamed joints) Sports: This is similar to Swedish massage, but it's geared toward fitness-focused people to help prevent or treat injuries. This massage involves stretching and posture assessment and correction as well. Trigger Point: This massage focuses on areas of tight muscle fibers that can form in your muscles after injuries or overuse. I use the ancient Chinese acupressure massage called Tui-na to aid in trigger point massage. Lomi Lomi (the 'loving hands' massage): This intuitive Hawaiian massage is from the ancient Polynesian belief that our memories are stored in our bodies. Using a combination of massage techniques along with nut oils, the Ho'oponopono prayer, breathing, and beautiful Hawaiian music, healing energy is restored within the body. Lomi lomi is designed to help the body let go of old patterns and behaviors.
