WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AS A FUTURE CLIENT

During your initial consultation we determine what your specific needs and wants are and what methods are necessary to achieve these goals.  Whether you need injury evaluation and treatment or a relaxing massage or a combination,  we will be clear on what we can expect and how realistically we can make any  changes to help you help your SELF when you are ready to do so.

My hours presently are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday - Thursday.  My rates are $40 per 1/2 hour, $65 per hour, & $100 per 90 minutes.  I have gift certificates available in package rates. 

Why don't I have reduced rates for "specials"? I pay full price for my weekly massages because I go to the best and most experienced therapists available.  I don't want to penny pinch and get an "okay" session.  I want excellence!!  I  expect you do, too.  I reduce the gift certificate packages as a way of thanking you for sending the people you really care about to me, trusting I will take care of them with the same excellence as I care for you.

Our room is quiet, candles are lit and a crackling fire, or ocean waves or a snowy scene is there  (on the DVD)  to set the tone.  Some of the techniques used are:

DEEP TISSUE & RELAXATION:    We address the deeper layers of muscular structures with a slow specific touch that is never hard or hurtful. This technique relieves pain and tightness, headaches, back pain, and many other aches and stiffness.

 MYOFASCIAL RELEASE:  Your sheet-like connective tissue that wraps around muscles and organs is fascia.  Manipulation of this soft tissue allows the muscles to take a new shape and position.  This alleviates pain, discomfort,  poor posture and dysfunction. This technique is slow and specific. 

REFLEXOLOGY:  You have 10,000 nerve endings connecting to all the organs and systems of the body that end up in your feet, hands and ears.  Reflexology stimulates these points to balance the body and promote wellness.  This technique leaves you relaxed, energized and renewed.

ENERGY &  MOVEMENT MODALITIES:  Alexander Technique, Trager Bodywork and Feldenkrtais are systems that work to achieve body awareness, balance and decreased muscular tension.  Polarity and cranial sacral techniques balance the electromagnetic field of energy and promote relaxation.

Experience has taught us that a combination of many techniques and methods are needed and 20 years of experience helps decide how to get the results you want.
