Distance Healing Services

What is Distance Healing? I believe Distance Healing can be best described as the “knowing” and “understanding” that messages and intention, that thoughtful guided imagination…through time, space and or virtual medium can positively transform a physical state of being. Our energetic purpose here in this life is to exist fully and heal on a daily basis. Distance is nothing more than an amount of space that can be utilized to create freedom.

Holding Space Distance Healing is a “virtual” service. You will be connected virtually with the therapist either by phone or video conference. Holding Space is a way to optimize the potential of a moment. This is energy work. This guided session will unlock the innate natural healing intelligence within the body. Holding Space is a knowing and in this application, in a session, it is an “allowing”. It can be thought of as utilizing the bodys natural, innate, healing ability to obtain balance. The therapist might include cranial techniques if applicable. To discover a moment of relief so innate forces can reorganize. To lift, to support, to understand, to hold, to honor, to assist, to be. In a state of stress and confusion, the body and mind will crave to be held. This is Holding Space.

Craniosacral Distance Healing is a “virtual” service. You will either be connected with the therapist via phone or video conference. This is an energy based modality that addresses the nervous system and the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system. Like the movement of the breath or the cardiac pulse, the motion of the cerebrospinal fluid can be perceived by a developed and trained therapist. This energetically based service will enhance the performance of the nervous system and without a doubt will improve overall health and release blocked energy.

Holding Space with Craniosacral Distance Healing is a “virtual” service. You will be connected virtually with the therapist either by phone or video conference. Holding Space is a way to optimize the potential of a moment. In addition, Craniosacral Therapy is an energy based modality that calms the nervous system by addressing the cranial bones, the spine, and the sacrum. In a “virtual” medium it can enhance the functioning of the physiological body system called the craniosacral system. Like the movement of the breath or the cardiac pulse, the motion of the cerebrospinal fluid can be perceived by a developed and trained therapist. This service will open the craniosacral system and combines nicely with Holding Space. The therapist might choose to incorporate energy based exercise for ample energetic movement.

In-Studio Services

Swedish Massage is a basic relaxing full body massage which may include a variety of massage strokes such as rolling, kneading, long strokes and percussion to help the body improve circulation.

Deep Tissue addresses the deeper tissue of the muscle and fascia and the pressure will generally be more intense. It is a more focused massage used to address chronic muscle tension or adhesions. Common tools used might be elbows, knuckles and forearms.

Advanced Circulatory is similar to a Swedish massage, but uses additional tools such as elbows and or knuckles. It is relaxing and invigorating.

Neuro Flow is a customized deep massage blend combining elements of myofascial release, neuromuscular therapy, and advanced circulatory massage. Active release, tissue-specific stretching, and passive joint mobilization/traction techniques may be weaved in to further integrate the bodywork and more effectively achieve positive results. Perfect for clients struggling with symptoms of muscular pain and a feeling of “tightness”.

Cupping is an ancient Chinese therapy that’s based on the belief that certain health problems can be caused by stagnant blood and a poor energy flow through your body. Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist places special cups on the skin for a few minutes to create suction. People choose this therapy for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage. A more modern version of cupping uses a rubber pump instead of fire to create the vacuum inside the cup. Sometimes silicone cups are used, which can slide from place to place on your skin for a massage-like effect. This treatment is integrated with a full body massage.

Crystal healing is a form of vibrational healing that helps to restore flow of vital life force energy and helps to activate one’s ability to heal one’s self. It helps to restore balance, harmony, spiritual connectedness and overall wellbeing. Crystals have been used throughout all of history as a source of healing power. Ancient cultures from around the world used healing crystals and stones to align, clear and transform their energy, spirit and physical health. The metaphysical powers of crystals were no mystery to most ancient cultures including the Egyptians, Mayans and Sumerians who regularly adorned their bodies, jewelry and buildings with these sacred stones. Crystals absorb, focus, direct and diffuse our energy fields to enable a diseased or out of balance body to find its natural energetic rhythm once again. The appropriate crystals can be placed on the seven main chakras, and around the body. A pendulum is most often used as a directive for chakras that might be out of balance or needing support.

Hot Stone Massage incorporates the techniques of a regular Swedish Massage; however, the therapist also works with hot stones that are placed on specific parts of the body or actually held and used as a massage tool. The stones are smooth and flat and usually made of the volcanic rock type called basalt. These particular stones are chosen because they retain heat. The therapist holds the stones and uses them with a variety of strokes as this allows the therapist to get deeper into the muscles without more pressure, helping their client to relax yet further. The benefits include, but aren’t limited to: pain relief, stress relief, increased joint flexibility, decreased muscle spasm and tension, and better sleep.

It is recommended that the client properly hydrates before this session as detoxifying may occur.

Prenatal massage has been used for centuries to improve overall health. It reduces back and joint pain, improves circulation, reduces edema and muscle tension as well as headaches and anxiety. Prenatal massage improves the oxygenation of soft tissues and muscles and promotes better sleep. Modern investigation and research has shown that prenatal massage therapy can be an instrumental ingredient in women’s prenatal care. Special prenatal massage training is required.

Postpartum massage has been shown to be effective for a quicker recovery and better health. Integration of maternal bodywork may add welcome value to your healing journey and transition to motherhood.

Myofascial Release is a soft tissue therapy for the treatment of skeletal muscle immobility and pain. This alternative medicine therapy aims to relax contracted muscles, improve blood and lymphatic circulation.

Acupressure is an alternative medicine technique where the therapist applies physical pressure to acupuncture points in the body. This technique clears blockages in the energy meridians in the body.

Craniosacral Therapy is an energy based modality that addresses the nervous system and is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system. Like the movement of the breath or the cardiac pulse, the motion of the cerebrospinal fluid can be felt anywhere on the body with a developed and trained palpatory skill. Enhancing the performance of the nervous system without a doubt improves the overall health and releases blocked energy. Using light touch and sophisticated listening skills a trained practitioner can help the body unwind.

Craniosacral blends nicely with Polarity work. (It is customary for this type of energy work that the client wears comfortable clothing, as it is a clothed session.) This session can be booked stand-alone or blended with massage.

Polarity Therapy is a healing art based on energy and was developed by Dr. Stone D.O., D.C., over a sixty-year career. It incorporates a set of principles of energy flow and includes specific therapeutic hands-on techniques, deep listening skills, diet, exercise and client counseling if needed. Polarity is an ongoing process of relating to life energy and a deeper understanding of our human bodies.

Polarity Therapy is based on the premise that we are fields of pulsating life energy made up of specific frequencies known as the five elements: Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth. Each element relates and flows in a balance of positive and negative attractions arising from a neutral center. When our thoughts, emotions, and physical body are out of alignment with the energy necessary to meet a life challenge, an energy imbalance results. These imbalances may appear as physical, mental, and emotional discomfort or pain. Polarity teaches us that this pain and discomfort is a signal for us to learn, change, and realign our lives. In short, Polarity Therapy is a way of working with the fundamental energies of life, a way of bringing these energy currents to a state of balance and removing obstructions to their free flow throughout the human energy field. Establishing this state of flowing balance enables the life energies to bring about whatever healing needs to be done. This balanced condition is experienced as one of deep concentration and relaxation.

Polarity blends nicely with Craniosacral work. (It is customary for this type of energy work that the client wears comfortable clothing, as it is a clothed session.) This session can be booked stand-alone or blended with massage.

Reiki is an energy-based modality. Qi is a form of vital energy that flows through the body. Free-flowing abundant Qi is said to create health, while stagnant or deficient Qi is thought to lead to illness. Reiki practitioners can improve this energy by holding their hands in certain positions over parts of the patient’s body. This produces a most relaxed, almost dream state while on the table.

Sports Massage is detailed, focused, anatomically specific massage that targets and corrects your unique physical issues. Whether you are a professional athlete nursing a chronic injury, a weekend warrior sore from overdoing it, or a mom with back pain from toting a toddler, Sports Massage can help you.

Table Thai massage and Sports massage are great ways to get in your stretching, increases flexibility and joint range of motion. Thai massage is a therapeutic technique where compression and deep stretching are dominant. The therapist uses hands, feet, forearms, elbows and knees to apply a combination of massage, and gentle yoga-like stretches to bring about your pain relief. (It is customary for this type of work that the client wears comfortable clothing, i.e., yoga attire, long shorts, sweatpants, t-shirt, as it is a clothed session.)

Visceral Manipulation is a gentle, targeted approach to easing restrictions within and around the internal organs, restoring healthy movement and function. Nearly all injuries have an important visceral component. By assisting the body in working through its internalized responses to physical and emotional trauma, VM works with the often neglected root causes of chronic injury, structural imbalance and dysfunction. VM is effective in treating a variety of issues, including motor vehicle injuries, reproductive and urinary issues, postural imbalance, PTSD, digestive issues, migraines, sciatica, heart and lung issues, brain injuries, anxiety, depression and much more.

Visceral Manipulation is available as a stand-alone service, or in combination with massage or Craniosacral Therapy. For lasting results we recommend a course of at least 4 sessions. Every body is unique, and each session will bring a progressively deeper sense of relief as we work through the different layers of your personal physical history.

LaStone therapy, a Native American full body massage with organic jojoba oil, integrates hot/chilled stones with the ancient art of energy work. The journey begins with 54 hot (basalt) stones, 18 chilled (marble and sardonyx) stones, joined with various crystals (orange calcite, amethyst, rose quartz, and more) to awaken all aspects of your Earth journey. The stones are placed in varying positions on the body for energy balancing, including the seven chakras and a spinal layout. One by one each stone will magically provide profound healing benefits for your body, mind, and spirit. The alternating heat and cold of thermotherapy brings the entire body into a healing process, with a rapid exchange of blood and oxygen and alternating rise and fall of respiration rate as the body seeks homeostasis. The therapy provides benefits for the client who has multiple muscle pain issues.It is within this state of relaxation, nirvana, and inner peace, that you begin to drift in and out of consciousness as if Mother Earth herself was with you relaxing every tense muscle.

This service has special pricing.

It is recommended that the client properly hydrates before this session as detoxifying may occur.

Lomi Lomi Massage is deeply rooted in ancient Hawaiian tradition. The literal translation of “lomi” means to knead, rub, soothe or weave. In the context of massage, it means to let go of what is not serving us. What makes Lomi Lomi unique is the use of forearms, flowing movement, intention and breath resulting in a deep meditative presence for the giver and receiver.

Deep {pressure} massage can integrate with Lomi Lomi and is similar to a swedish massage but with a higher level of overall pressure. Unlike deep tissue, which tends to focus on very specific issues/areas, deep massage addresses the whole body and is effective at targeting overall stress and tension from everyday work and life issues.
