Modalities
Circulatory massage is used for enhancing the proper flow of blood through the entire body and providing relaxation to various muscles. This massage relaxes tensed muscles and relieves stress from the body, improving the overall health.
Craniosacral uses very gentle holds on various parts of the body to release constriction in the connective tissue around the spine and brain, thus allowing for better flow of nutrients & support to the nervous system and the whole body. This allows for unwinding and unblocking stuck energies by holding space for the system to digest and move through its natural processes to find balance.
Sensory Repatterning uses gentle rocking motions and undulations to help encourage all the body to experience freedom of movement and let go of past holding patterns, releasing tension and restriction. For many it feels meditative & relaxing and can be supportive for releasing trauma from the body.
Polarity Therapy is a form of hands-on energy work that stimulates and balances the flow of energy within the body through the attraction and union of opposites through a balanced middle point. Polarity bodywork consists of both light touch, deep touch, as well as rocking or vibrating the body to release and balance energy at different points according to the polarity energy system.
