Services and Modalities 

Each session is tailored to your individual needs, drawing from a variety of techniques listed below. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, pain management, or improved mobility, I will create a customized treatment plan to help in your wellness journey.

Cranio Sacral Therapy

Cranio Sacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, light-touch modality that works with the subtle movements of the bones of the head, spine, and sacrum. Using very soft, sustained pressure, I assess and release restrictions within the craniosacral system—the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.

During a session, I tune in to the craniosacral rhythm, a natural expansion and contraction that can only be felt in deep stillness. This rhythm often feels like the gentle ebb and flow of ocean waves or the quiet rise and fall of a breath. By sensing where this rhythm is restricted or asymmetrical, I can identify areas of tension, compression, or energetic holding that may be affecting your overall well-being.

Intraoral Massage

This type of massage is recommended for those with TMJ issues, neck and shoulder tension, or anyone seeking an uplift in their facial structure. It is also beneficial for those who suffer from tension headaches. The session begins with work on the neck and shoulders to help warm up the area. Using gentle and sustained pressure, gloved fingers are used to access and release the muscles inside the mouth, particularly focusing on the cheeks and jaw. Myofascial release and trigger point therapy are the primary techniques used in a Buccal Massage. The duration of a Buccal Massage can range from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the client’s needs. The treatment ends with gentle lymphatic drainage using cupping.

Cupping

Cupping Therapy uses suction to draw blood to the surface of the skin and the underlying muscles. When cups are placed on the body, the suction helps to improve blood circulation, reduce muscle tension, and enhance the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the treated area. The negative pressure created by the cups also stimulates the release of toxins from muscle tissue and aids in the healing process by promoting the flow of lymphatic fluid.

I received my certification through Internal Cupping Therapy Association (ICTA) over a three day course. With my cupping techniques I use dynamic and static cups. Dynamic cupping helps with myofascial release and decompression of targeted muscle groups.Options such as pedi, sports, abdominal, facial and cellulite cupping are also options that can be added on into the session. Each cupping session is ended with lymphatic drainage.

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger Point Therapy focuses on tight, hyper-irritable areas within muscle fibers known as "trigger points" that can cause localized or referred pain. These points occur when muscles contract and fail to release, often due to overuse, stress, or injury. Applying deep pressure or compression to these points helps to deactivate the muscle contraction, improve blood flow, and restore normal nerve function. This process also allows for the removal of metabolic waste products that accumulate in tight muscles, improving oxygen delivery to the area.

Assisted Stretching & Muscle Energy Technique (MET)

With assisted stretching I will be guiding you through stretches that target specific muscle groups. When pressure is applied during a stretch, it helps to overcome the natural resistance of muscle fibers, allowing for a deeper stretch. This controlled approach encourages the muscle fibers to relax and lengthen more efficiently.

 

Muscle Energy Technique (MET) is an active stretching technique where the client is contracting targeted muscle against my resistance followed by relaxation of muscle to allow for a deeper stretch. This allows the muscle to be stretched to its full potential and the joint to be taken to full range of motion.

Myofascial Release

Myofascial Release targets the fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and organs. When fascia becomes tight or restricted, it can cause discomfort, pain, and limited range of motion. By applying sustained pressure and stretching techniques, Myofascial Release encourages the fascia to loosen and realign, which restores normal tissue movement. 

Prenatal

Prenatal massage is a treatment designed to support the needs of expectant mothers. For safety reasons, prenatal massage is recommended only during the second and third trimesters, as receiving massage in the first trimester may increase the risk of complications.

During the session, special bolsters and pillows are used to ensure comfort and safety—typically allowing the client to lie on their side or in a semi-reclined position to avoid pressure on the abdomen. The massage focuses on relieving common pregnancy discomforts such as lower back pain, hip tension, leg cramps, and swelling in the feet and hand

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique that helps promote healing through energy clearing. REI stands for "universal" and KI stands for "life energy", in other words spiritually guided life energy. Ki, life energy that flows through each one of us, can be blocked with negative thoughts. As the  practitioner I will help guide the Ki that flows within the physical body either through your chakras, meridian, nadis or auras. Think of these as your "radio receivers" and when these radio receivers are blocked you would have trouble connection to the higher vibrations of the universe and your own intuitions.

Sports Massage

Sports massage is used to help prevent injuries & support recovery for those with active lifestyles. Sports massage typically involves deep tissue work. I recommend the use of cupping, muscle scraping and kinesiology tape in my sports massage sessions. Muscles that are most used with the clients activity would be the primary focus on the session. MET & assisted stretching will be performed to ensure full functionality of muscle groups.
