Medical Massage
Medical massage is the application of specific treatment protocols targeted to the specific problem(s) the patient presents with physician's diagnosis and administered after a thorough assessment/evaluation by the medical massage therapist with specific outcomes being the basis for treatment.
Lymphatic Drainage Technique
Lymphatic Drainage Technique is manual manipulation of the lymphatic ducts. It consists of gentle, rhythmic massaging of the skin to stimulate the flow of lymph and its return to the blood circulation system.
In the blood’s passage through the kidneys, the excess fluid is filtered out and eliminated from the body through urination.
The treatment is very gentle and a typical session will involve drainage of the neck, trunk, and involved extremity (in that order), lasting approximately 40 to 60 minutes.
Lymphatic Drainage Technique is generally effective on non-fibrotic lymphedema and less effective on more fibrotic legs, although it has been shown to help break up fibrotic tissue.
Fijian Foot Massage
Fijian Foot Massage employs techniques learned from the inhabitants of the Fijian Islands. This deep, yet soothing, massage technique uses one foot that kneads all the muscles, relieving tension and pain.
The therapist may sit or stand and the client may remain clothed while reclining on a floor mat. Fijian massage does not use oils or lotions.
Passive Range of Motion
Passive Range of Motion (or PROM) - The therapist or their equipment moves your joint through the range of motion with no effort from the you.
Scar Massage
Scar Massage is performed to prevent scar tissue buildup and puckering of the skin. It can be used following a surgery, it can even help old scars.
It increases suppleness of the muscles and often times increases range of motion in that area. Scar Massage should be performed after all scabs have fallen off by themselves.
Couples Massage
Couples Massage - You and your significant other can relax and unwind at the same time by two highly trained Licensed Massage Therapists.

Ear Candling
Ear Candling is a natural way to remove energetic blockages inside the ear. A long, hollow, tapered "candle," usually a cone made of muslin and coated with wax, is inserted into the ear and lit.
The smoke moves down the cone, into the ear and back out, creating a vacuum effect that releases blockages.
Energy Therapies
Reiki
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.
If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
Pranic Healing
Pranic Healing is a "no-touch" modality that focuses on cleansing the aura by removing the negative energy that otherwise affects the organs and their related chakras, which would then lead to illness or disease.
Chakra Spinning
"Chakra" is a Sanskrit word meaning "wheels of light". This is descriptive of the appearance of the chakras which are like vortexes of energy which spin.
Each chakra is structured uniquely to receive and transmit the particular qualities of energy which are necessary for the area of functioning governed by the chakra.
Your chakras can become blocked and your therapist can "spin" each blocked chakra and allow the energy to flow freely up and down the spine, giving a sense of well being.
Open Monday through Friday 8 am - 6 pm.
Saturday by appointment.
