Sports
Massage
Sports massage utilizes
specific strokes and stretches to obtain maximum performance with less
chance of injury or discomfort. It increases power, endurance and
flexibility. Many athletes and dancers have reached the height of their
abilities with the use of these techniques.

Fijian
Massage
This method is an ancient art that
utilizes nine different parts of the therapist's foot to release tension
in the recipient and to effectively increase circulation, mobility and
flexibility. During the massage, the client lies on thick, supportive and
comfortable cushions. The client can choose to wear soft cotton clothing
or have the massage performed on bare skin. This method is deeper and
often more therapeutic than massage using the hands.

Core Integration (C.I.)
Core Integration is a synthesis of the work of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais,
myofascial work and yoga/martial arts study. It uses the principles of
good movement (resonance, lengthening, stretching, strengthening and
relaxation) to create a more integrated sense of self and a feeling of
free mobility. C.I. can help transform ingrained limiting habits to a
higher level of efficiency that becomes integrated into day-to-day life. Sessions can be individual or in a group setting.

Holistic Movement Re-Education
Designed to improve mind/body
awareness, increase stamina and reduce stress, Holistic Movement
Re-Education combines the principles of Tai Chi, Biokinetics, Yoga and
TragerR movements, or mentastics. The latter produce pleasant sensory
feelings believed to stimulate the central nervous system. They trigger
changes in the body's tissues through the intricate workings of the mind
and body.
Facial Massage & Cleansing
This rejuvenating treatment - using only organic and natural
products - begins with a complete neck and scalp massage, followed by a
deep, non-invasive cleansing and a mask to tighten the pores while the
feet, arms and hands are massaged. Next, a complete facial massage using
essential nourishing oils and creams brings life back to the skin and
relieves facial/jaw tension. The facial ends with natural facelift
techniques, using tsubo points, to create a youthful glow.

About Massage
Massage is healthful for everyone: business professionals, homemakers, athletes, children, pregnant
women and the elderly can all benefit. IMPORTANT: Please partner with
us by informing us of physical limitations/ conditions.
Massage can alleviate tension, as well as pain from dis-ease
or injury. It rejuvenates the body, allowing greater productivity and
sense of wellbeing. It soothes muscle stiffness and spasms, stimulates
circulation, increases lymph flow, breaks up fibrosis and lengthens
contracting muscles. It also relieves pain and neck and shoulder tension,
speeds recovery and helps prevent future injury.
Each individual's energies respond uniquely to different
massage/movement methods. We welcome the opportunity to help you discover
the best method for your mind-body-spirit. |
