Swedish/Therapeutic Massage is performed on the back and neck. This is a combination of long, smooth strokes and more precise work along the origin and insertion points of the muscles. Some stretching may also be done.
Tai Massage is also incorporated for the whole body and is the primary massage done on the arms and legs. This type of massage is very rhythmic and focuses on opening up the energy channels of the body. Soon a 90 minute session of just Tai Massage will be available.
Reiki (Ray-key) is a Japanese term meaning Universal Life Force Energy. Reiki helps to increase the life force that is in and around all of us, thus bringing balance to the chakra and meridian system in our bodies. This life force is what keeps us healthy, our heart beating, and free of physical, emotional, and spiritual dis-ease. Reiki is a laying on of hands therapy, facilitated with the client fully clothed lying on a massage table. Overall, Reiki helps to create balance and create a deep sense of well-being. It is a great compliment to massage. To learn more about medical research related to Reiki, go to www.reikimedresearch.org. To learn more about Reiki overall, go to www.geocities.com/reikiwi.

Laughter brings joy to our hearts and lifts up our spirits, taking away the heaviness of the stress and burdens we carry. It teaches us to not take life and ourselves so seriously. After taking Laughter Yoga in Spring of 2008, I have incorporated this Laughter technique into my practice and have found that it helps clients release stress quicker and in a much different way than they would from reiki or massage.
Divine Coding is a technique that I use to empower the Reiki. I call upon St. Germaine to help me with this technique. For more information, check out www.onestophealingshop.com.
Quantum Touch is a technique where I use my breath to raise my vibration with in turn helps raise your vibration to enable your body to heal. This is a technique you can easily learn how to do yourself from a class or book called I have seen amazing results from QT ~ within 5 minutes of a practitioner doing this to me, my splitting headache was gone. I have also felt vertebrae shift under my hands/fingers when doing this over someone's back or neck area.
Prayer examples include: Hail Mary, Our Father, Mantras, etc. Whatever the Holy Spirit guides me to say silently or out loud. I have used prayer since a child and continue to use it in my daily life.
Toning is a technique I utilize where I use my voice to tone things like AA or EE which I find help shift stuck energy and stress. Often, there is a deeper sense of peace after the toning is finished. This may last approximately 1-10 minutes during a session. For more info check out http://www.boblusk.net/_wsn/page5.html.
Emotional Freedom Technique is a tapping technique utilizing acupuncture meridian points. This technique is used to adjust imbalances in the body when other techniques do not appear effective. I have seen results with EFT on the emotional, physical, and mental levels, including relieving symptoms of past trauma, neck pain, headaches, etc. For more information or to teach yourself, go to www.emofree.com.
Tuning Fork Chakra Balancing Therapy is utilized to balance 7 major and 5 minor chakras. The benefits of this therapy include: decreased mental chatter, deep relaxation, decreased physical pain, overall balance of body, mind, and emotions. (If this therapy is done alone, it is a 40 min session for $40)
Sound Healing sessions include the use of tuning forks, tingshaw bells, and singing bowls. The tapping of basalt rocks or crystals may also be utilized to change the frequency within the body's muscles, tissues, and organs. These sound healing tools help to synchronize the body's rhythms, helping you feel more balanced and in tune with yourself.
