Lymphatic Massage

This massage is performed with very light pressure in order to encourage a healthy immune system, flush toxins, and increase metabolism.

Chakra Bodywork

We have seven main chakras in the human body.  They serve as centers of energy and have related organs with each chakra. Unresolved traumas can leave holes in the chakras that can block and lose energy. This can lead to physical problems in that area. I will use aroma therapy as we move up the body from the feet to the head to work on each chakra. I will explain key elements in each chakra. It allows for client input and processing.

Excellent stress reduction support. Facilitating healing on a deep and lasting level helping the client to be on purpose in life.
