Nationally Certified

Licensed Massage Therapist

Consulting Hypnotist

Massage Objective: My mission is to listen carefully to you, the client, and customize my massage to address your needs. In addition to focusing on problem areas, I will provide a relaxing, rejuvenating massage that brings you home to your body. So many of us live in our heads these days and are actually unaware of just how much tension and discomfort we are holding. My goal is for you to float home, pain and stress free, at peace with yourself and the world.

Hypnosis Objective: My mission is to assist you with whatever issues you are dealing with; such as weight loss, stress management, healing, breaking negative habits or behaviors, etc. My goal is to empower you, with the assistance of your subconscious mind to accomplish anything you choose.

Massage Modalities

Swedish/Relaxation Massage

  • Massage is among the oldest forms of medicine; depicted in 15,000 year old cave paintings
  • Boosts your immune system by stimulating lymph flow, the body's natural defense system against foreign invaders such as bacteria, viruses and toxic pathogens. It also increases the production of white blood cells.
  • Relaxes and softens injured and overused muscles
  • Increases joint flexibility and can relieve the pain of tendinitis
  • Releases endorphins - the body's natural painkiller
  • Reduces Cortisol, the stress hormone that elevates your blood pressure and heart rate and gets you into the "Fight or flight" mode.
  • Improves range of motion and decreases discomfort for clients with low back pain
  • Relieves neck tension which contributes to headache pain

Craniosacral Therapy

This treatment is performed on a person fully clothed. Using a light touch; generally no more than the weight of a nickel, the practitioner monitors the rhythm of the craniosacral system to detect potential restrictions and imbalances. The therapist then uses delicate manual techniques to release those problem areas and relieve undue pressure on the brain and spinal cord.

Reiki

Reiki (Pronounced "ray-key") is a Japanese word meaning universal life energy. It is a nonintrusive method of hands on healing that taps into the energy referred to as "ki" in Japan, "chi" in China and "prana" in India. Reiki is a technique that addresses both chronic and acute conditions, gently and powerfully promoting balance among all the body's systems and the normal regenerative processes of the body and mind. You will lie on a table fully clothed. Little or no pressure will be applied and no oils will be used. I will place my hands on or above your head, shoulders, back, chest, stomach and limbs. Normally a series of hand positions are used, but my hands can be placed over an injury or area of discomfort. The energy will flow through me to you. You will receive the amount of energy you need to bring your mind and body into balance. You may feel a tingling or pulsing sensation, a feeling of warmth and comfort or you may even fall asleep. Results are sometimes subtle; you may feel little during the session, but afterwards, you may enjoy a sense of calm and well being and a deep, restful sleep.

Chakra Balancing

Chakras are energy centers located at several locations in your body, beginning at the base of the spine and moving upward to your head, as well as at all of your joints. Long term blockages in your energy flow (caused by injury, emotional trauma and stress) can contribute to illness and fatigue. Balancing and opening the chakras is a subtle, relaxing therapy that increases your well being and overall health.

Myofascial Release

A gentle, hands on technique that facilitates a sustained stretch into restricted fascia. Fascia is a tough connective tissue which is broken down into three layers; one layer lies directly below the skin, the second layer surrounds every muscle, bone, blood vessel, nerve and organ, and the third, deepest layer is within the dura of the craniosacral system. Just for grins, if you’d like to check the health of your fascia, have a family member place his/her hand on the skin of your back. Have them press down slightly, and then move the hand in the north, south, east and west directions. If they notice that the skin hardly moves in a particular direction, you probably have a fascial restriction!

Raindrop Therapy

Raindrop Technique is a powerful, non-invasive tool for eliminating pathogens or viruses lying dormant or active along the spine. It can help correct defects in the curvature of the spine. It is a process of dropping essential oils onto the back and massaging them lightly into the area of the spine and muscle tissue in a very set pattern. It takes about an hour to do, and should be repeated regularly over a period of time for the most effective results.

Hypnosis

Hypnosis is relaxed receptivity with increased perception, a state of deep relaxation which quiets the body and opens the subconscious mind. It is very similar to the state of mind we experience just prior to going to sleep at night and prior to getting up in the morning - the twilight zone between being awake and being asleep. It's a natural state of mind that we go into all the time when we daydream or "zone out", for example, while watching TV. Hypnosis is a tool which can assist you with issues which may be causing you a problem in life. Hypnosis can be used to maximize skills such as a sport, and can either help you to do something you currently cannot do, or help you to stop doing something you currently do.

Issues Hypnosis can be used for

  • Attain and maintain your ideal weight
  • Decrease stress and increase relaxation
  • Eliminate excessive fears, worrying or anxiousness
  • Eliminate public speaking "jitters"
  • Facilitate physical or emotional healing
  • Gain confidence or charisma
  • Improve athletic performance
  • Improve your golf scores (and other sports)
  • Imrpove sales skills
  • Increase creativity and concentration
  • Increase memory and learning ability
  • Manage pain
  • Sleep better - decrease insomnia
  • Stop smoking
  • Stop nail biting, hair pulling, other nervous habits
  • Prepare for surgery
  • Attract Love...the sky is the limit to what you can accomplish with the help of your subconscious mind!

Facts About Being in Hypnosis

  • Hypnosis works by relaxing the physical body and conscious mind so that the subconscious mind can be reached through suggestion and visualization in order to effect change.
  • Your conscious mind is the part of your brain that looks, listens and learns. It reasons and judges, analyzes and criticizes, accepts and rejects and makes decisions. Willpower is a function of your conscious mind.
  • Your subconscious mind is the part of your brain that runs all your bodily functions, like breathing and beating your heart. It stores your permanent memory, all the images, ideas and emotions you have ever seen or experienced. Stored data in your subconscious mind may be sabotaging or interfering with your success in a particular area of your life. In order to reprogram data in your subconscious mind, you need to send your conscious mind to the background and bring your subconscious to the foreground. This exactly what hypnosis does. Imagination is a function of your subconscious mind.
  • You are always in control and cannot be hypnotized if you don't want to be
  • You are very aware of things going on around you. Hypnosis is a heightened state of awareness.
  • You are not going to blurt out any deep, dark secrets under hypnosis.
  • You cannot be made to do things you don't want to do.
  • You cannot get stuck in hypnosis - you can stop it or leave it at any time. However, it is such a pleasurable, relaxed feeling, most clients decide to remain there for as long as they can.
  • You are not asleep - you are totally aware of yourself and your surroundings at all times.
  • You cannot "lose your mind" or be in any way "possessed."
  • You will remember everything you choose to remember about the session.
  • You are the one in control. If the hypnotist gives you a suggestion you are not comfortable with, you won't accept it.
