There are many types of massage and not all massage therapists are the same. Take your time exploring the many different styles and techniques the amazing therapists in our city have to offer. Chances are you will find the therapies that is right for you.
To learn more about what I can offer my clients, see the menu of services below.
My personal style of massage, which I have created from years of hands-on training, education, receiving bodywork myself, and working with clients, may be quite different then what you have experienced before. During your massage your limbs will be moved and stretched, you will be pampered with the use of hot towels, and soothed into oblivion with relaxing music. I often use Aromatherapy, Hot Stone & Bamboo sticks
Using many of the modalities and techniques i have learned, you will not only feel utterly and deeply relaxed but relief from many of your aches and pains. A longer session allows me time to focus on your problem areas while being able to provide you with a complete full body massage.
You might experience such modalities as: Myofascial Cupping, Gua Sha, Thai Massage, Myofascial Release, Lymphatic Massage, CranioSacral, etc.
This is a 90 minute session
The Kahuna Massage, otherwise known as Lomi Lomi, is a Traditional Hawaiian Massage, using Hands, Forearms and Elbows, medium to deep pressure. Soothing Polynesian Music and an exclusive essential oil blend will transport you to the Islands. Feel as if your body as been gently rocked by waves. *This massage is best done when a client is comfortable being completely undressed. Your modesty will always be respected with draping appropriate for this modality.
Add to any session. Organic Sugar is applied to lower legs and feet to gently exfoliate dry, dead skin, while providing plenty of hydration from the Organic Avocado and Coconut oil. Warm Towels are used to lightly remove any sugar from the skin. Additional time is spent massaging the feet. Aromatherapy might be used.
Add this service to any session. First I will use Dry Brushing to stimulate the lymphatic system followed by gentle exfoliating of warmed, all natural clay that will polish all the dead skin cells away, cooling essential oils are added to tone the skin. All wiped away with warm towels for a healthy, natural glow. Followed by a light misting of rose water to rehydrate then my signature organic massage oil blend of coconut/avocado to moisturize.

Pregnancy massage focuses on addressing the special needs of expecting person. As recommended by many OB's, Midwives and Chiropractors, I use the side-lying posture and pillows to prevent putting pressure on the abdomen which allows the client to be as comfortable as possible. I have over 100 hours of hands on care in this modality as well as specific training.
