| glow-of-the-month A unique, handmade, organic & indulgent body treatment that leaves your skin stunningly soft and renewed. A salt & sugar based scrub is applied to your entire body, removing dead skin cells and impurities. After a warm shower, you are back on the massage table receiving a full body massage with pure, unfiltered coconut oil. Past glows-of-the-month have included "herb extreme," "cocotropinana," "strawberries and cream," and "margarita." |
| craniosacral therapy Specific, gentle holds are used on areas related to the body's cranio-sacral system; that is, the head, neck, spine and sacrum. Craniosacral therapy is often described as "energetic work on a physical system." The special holds facilitate and enhance the natural, slight movement of the cranial and spinal bones, encouraging proper flow of the cerebrospinal fluid, and deep muscle relaxation. I especially recommend craniosacral therapy for clients who have issues with chronic neck pain, headaches, insomnia, TMJ, or general stress. |
| shiatsu Shiatsu is an ancient Japanese bodywork modality that is performed on a comfortable futon, while the client remains fully clothed. Finger, hand, elbow, knee, and foot pressure are strategically used along the client's "meridians," or energetic pathways, with the intent of releasing blockages and moving stagnant "ki," or energetic life-force. Deep stretches are also employed. Although shiatsu is by nature very deep bodywork, less pressure can be used to suit the client's preferences. |
