"Wellness" / Swedish / "Relaxation": Swedish massage techniques can help relax the muscles, improve circulation and manage stress. This is the perfect introduction to massage therapy, and a fantastic way to maintain health. Swedish Massage is a relaxing style of bodywork. It combines oils or lotion with an array of strokes such as rolling, kneading, and percussion to help the body improve its circulation. The benefits of this type of bodywork are wide-ranging and include relief from aches and pains, decreased stress levels in the body, enhanced mental clarity, improved appearance, and greater flexibility.
Deep Tissue / Sports / Neuromuscular: Truly gets the knots out by de-stressing underlying muscles and breaking down adhesions. Techniques may include the use of Hot Stones, pain creams, Myofascial Release, Trigger Point or T-sphere Therapy, Proprioceptive Nerve Facilitation, and stretching.
Reiki: Reiki treatments can facilitate healing through deep relaxation, which can help release stress and restore a sense of balance to the mind and emotions. Reiki sessions may help with feelings of disconnection, and may also help mitigate the effects of physical pain. Recipients often report feeling a greater sense of health, well-being, balance, focus and enhanced creativity. Repeated sessions serve as a wonderful complement to conventional medical treatment and can speed the healing process.
POLICIES
*May vary by location. Please inquire when booking your appointment, thank you!
Cancellation Policy
I understand that unanticipated events happen occasionally in everyone’s life. In our desire to be effective and fair to all clients, the following policies are honored:
24 hour advance notice is required when canceling an appointment. This allows the opportunity for someone else to schedule an appointment. If you are unable to give us 24 hours advance notice you will be charged a percentage of your service price, or in some cases the full amount of your appointment (the late-notice fee varies by location). This amount must be paid prior to your next scheduled appointment, and is usually charged by the end of the day of the canceled appointment.
No-shows
Anyone who either forgets or consciously chooses to forgo their appointment for whatever reason will be considered a “no-show.” They will be charged for their “missed” appointment.
Late Arrivals
If you arrive late, your session may be shortened in order to accommodate others whose appointments follow yours. Depending upon how late you arrive, your therapist will then determine if there is enough time remaining to start a treatment. Regardless of the length of the treatment actually given, you will be responsible for the “full” session. Out of respect and consideration to your therapist and other customers, please plan accordingly and be on time.
I look forward to serving you!
