My specialties include:
Bodywork:
Swedish & Prenatal Massage
The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles. Swedish massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. It increases circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable. Swedish massage also stimulates the skin and nervous system and soothes the nerves themselves at the same time. It reduces stress, both emotional and physical, and is suggested in a regular program for stress management. It also has many specific medical uses. Schedule a session now…

Foot reflexology is a traditional, natural, and enjoyable way to relieve stress, release tension, and encourage the body’s natural healing ability.

Windows of the Sky
Windows of the Sky are acupuncture points, which have been used for centuries to help people move into meditation-like, altered states of consciousness. While in this consciousness, people are able to re-experience life events they have previously not been able to let go of. This re-experiencing happens with deeply intensified acceptance, clarity and insight, thus allowing people to released traumas and learn their related lessons. Physical, metal, and spiritual transformations happen with surprising speed and ease. Material that had previously been inaccessible or unchanging begins to flow and shifts. These therapeutics shifts are often felt by both client and therapist, the two often having shared images, emotions and body sensation. Reliving these events during such deeply altered states of consciousness allow the client to smoothly and easily process and release even deeply seated traumas Severe and chronic physical complaints as well as long-standing emotional spiritual problems, find resolution and relief. This work is deep, profound and potentially life changing.
Windows of the sky are stimulated with gentle finger pressure. Additionally, essential oils, flower essences, or crystals may be used on these points to intensify their effectiveness. Schedule a session now…

Homeopathy
Spiritual Healing:
Ashtanga Yoga
Ashtanga Yoga, with it’s powerful linking of postures and fully rhythmic breathing, is a yoga system like no other. Deep internal heat purifies the body at cellular levels while enhanced levels of concentration relax the mind and internal energy locks strengthen the nervous system.
