Gentle Restorative Yoga

This program teaches individuals passive, gentle yoga postures that are profoundly relaxing and deeply rejuvenating. Students learn to use various props--blankets, pillows, bolsters, and therapeutic balls--to manage pain. Students also learn to use meditations, visualizations, guided imagery, and breathing techniques to bring the mind and body into a deep state of relaxation. This causes the body to move into the Relaxation Response and allows the parasympathetic nervous system to produce wonderful healing hormones. Restorative Yoga brings about relief for those with chronic back pain, hypertension, migraines, insomnia, range-of-motion limitations, degenerative disc, and many other ailments. This program can be taken in a group or private setting. Come enjoy the healing effects of Restorative Yoga!

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils to enhance your massage by stimulating or relaxing the muscles depending on the oils used on the body. Oils are chosen based on individual needs.

Deep Tissue Massage

This technique uses deep muscle massage to affect the sub-layer of musculature and fascia. It helps ease chronic muscle pain and aids in injury rehabilitation. This therapy is often integrated with other massage techniques.

Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure™

“Benefits of Asian Healing Without the Needles”
The practitioner uses gentle yet deep pressure on points in areas of tension and on distal points that share the same or related energy flow. Jin Shin Do differs with acupuncture due to the absence of needles and because the client is touched in a highly supportive way. Though acupuncture is a very helpful therapy for many conditions, acupressure is more effective for stress related problems.

Reiki

Shiatsu
