Massage Therapy

Therapeutic massage focuses on helping the body achieve a state of balance. This is accomplished through individualized treatments utilizing gentle techniques to relieve pain in affected areas and to soothe the nervous system. Some of the benefits of therapeutic massage are reduced muscular tension and pain, improved circulation, increased joint flexibility, reduced stress and anxiety, and improved energy and concentration.

Swedish Massage

Swedish massage is a relaxing and therapeutic massage technique designed to promote overall wellness, reduce stress, and ease muscle tension. Using long, flowing strokes, kneading, and gentle circular movements, this massage improves circulation, enhances flexibility, and encourages deep relaxation. Whether you're looking to relieve tension, improve recovery, or simply unwind, Swedish massage is the perfect way to rejuvenate both body and mind.
Swedish & Sound Healing

A delightful combination light, medium, and as needed, deep Swedish massage, soothing energy healing, vibrational sound therapy, Thai yoga stretching for the neck, arms, and shoulders, as well as reflexology points on the hands and feet.

An all-over therapeutic yet spiritual experience that affects every cell in the body, leaving you feeling refreshed and restored. Warm Himalayan salt pillows, vibrational sound therapy, using a combination of tuning forks and other sound healing instruments, are included in each customized session, with your personal preferences always taken into consideration. Aromatherapy is also a welcome addition, if you desire.

This is an energetic, fully therapeutic bodywork session; the fusion of sound therapy allows for deeper healing at the cellular level, body, mind, and spirit.
Mother Massage: Pre and Post-Natal

A delicious massage with light to medium pressure for the Mom-To-Be or new momma. A comfortable prop system supports the mom-to-be, allowing her to lay both supine and side lying.

Mother Massage can help to address the aches and pains that come along with pregnancy, leading to a better night's sleep and an overall sense of peace and well-being, body, mind, and spirit. Mother Massage can help reduce anxiety and calm the nervous system for both mother and child. Other benefits of massage therapy during pregnancy include improved mood, circulation, and flexibility.

Post-natal Mother Massage can help support proper healing of the body, after the baby has been born, with the hips moving back into place and the body undergoing its many hormonal changes; massage therapy helps support the emotional and physical well-being of the tired new momma, giving her a chance to recuperate from this life-changing experience.
Laura Norman Reflexology

The Laura Norman Method of Foot Reflexology helps to relax and soothe, not only the feet, but the entire person as a whole - body, mind and spirit. Different from massage therapy, you'll be fully clothed for your session, except your feet, of course. You'll wear comfy clothing, such as yoga or sweatpants, so we can access reflexology points on the calves, too. This 60-minute treatment restores the natural balance to the body and is profoundly relaxing.

Want a longer session? Give your hands and your scalp some extra love.

Hot towels and warm Himalayan salt pillows are incorporated into each session, to nurture you and to keep you relaxed and cozy. Aromatherapy can be added, if desired.
Sound Footing

For an extended therapeutic foot reflexology session, add 20 minutes of vibrational sound therapy. Vibrational sound therapy helps to balance the left and right brain, calms the nervous system, which allows for better digestion, deeper levels of sleep, and relaxation. Sound therapy supports a healthy immune system and better mental clarity. It is a profoundly unique and relaxing experience, with the frequencies from crystal and hand-hammered metal singing bowls, various chimes, rain sticks, tuning forks, and other sound healing instruments, increasing the level of relaxation and potential for healing at the cellular level. This session is perfect for anyone who doesn’t feel comfortable with massage therapy, for whatever reason, but who wants – and needs - to relax and surrender, as well as for anyone interested in experiencing small doses of sound therapy. This service can really help promote deep states of relaxation and detoxification.
