THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
Designed to help reduce pain/discomfort and facilitate functional postural realignment. This modality is best suited when you want to focus on 1-3 musculoskeletal issues. Therapeutic Massage involves an overall assessment of limitations, injuries, pain & discomfort; followed by specific realignment techniques including  Ortho-Bionomy®, Deep Tissue and other techniques. 30 minutes session can address 1 area; 90 & 120 minute session may allow for full body massage as well as addressing specific issues. Dress in comfortable loose fitting clothing.

RESTORATIVE MASSAGE
When you feel your body needs a reset more than structural change: Designed for gentle restoration and balance of the nervous system, joints and whole body. This modality is tailored to meet your individual needs using a blend of:  slow, flowing Swedish Massage, realigning Ortho-Bionomy®, integrative CranioSacral Therapy and other modalities.

ORTHO-BIONOMY® 
Gentle form of bodywork focusing on practitioner and client working together to re-educate dysfunctional patterns for improved ease of motion and reduced pain. The practitioner works with you to identify areas of discomfort, tension and pain as well as areas of comfort and ease of movement. Gentle movements, comfortable positioning and subtle contacts are used to stimulate the body's reflexes to facilitate your body's return to natural alignment. No forceful movements or pressures are used. Dress in comfortable loose fitting clothing.

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY (CST)
A light touch form of bodywork focusing on releasing tensions within the body to free the central nervous system to perform at its best. The practitioner uses gentle manual techniques to locate areas of restrictions and then release those problem areas in order to improve the form and function of your central nervous system. Dress in comfortable loose fitting clothing.

*HELENA PAHAVA MANUAL FACELIFT METHOD

90 minute session: Great for those with tension in neck/shoulders/scalp and face. Gentle and relaxing massage to neck/shoulders scalp & face, including Buccal Massage; targeting multiple layers -bone to skin- to reduce muscle & fascia tension, support circulation and provides a lifting effect to face.

CUPPING
The certified cupping practitioner assesses limitations and discomfort/pain affecting functioning, followed by using a variety of cups to create negative pressure with the intent to facilitate soft tissue release, loosen and lift connective tissue, break up and drain stagnation while supporting blood and lymph flow to skin and muscles in ways not possible with compression. Cups may be used stationary or moving. When the cups move (negative pressure massage), the pulling action of the cups gently engages the parasympathetic nervous system, thus allowing deep relaxation.

PRENATAL  / POSTPARTUM MASSAGE

The Certified Prenatal/Postpartum Massage Therapist conducts a comprehensive questionnaire with you, followed by a massage designed for your stage of pregnancy. The Prenatal/Postpartum massage is designed to help ease common discomforts and tensions associated with pregnancy using relaxation and targeted muscular release techniques. CranioSacral Therapy can be integrated into session upon request. Please consult with your trusted medical provider for approval prior to receiving prenatal massage/bodywork.
