Clinical Acupressure

$90 per 1 hour session

Acupressure is based on one the most ancient principles of healing — that simply touching a specific point on the body will release stress and improve health in the body. In a Clinical Acupressure session, I apply gentle pressure directly to specific point combinations on your body, in a particular order. This simple and powerful technique invites your system to balance and harmonize itself in a profoundly relaxing and centering way. It has been shown to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation, and is very effective in treating common conditions such as headaches, backaches, and insomnia.

Process Acupressure

$90 per 1 hour session

Process Acupressure (PA) is a "whole-person" therapeutic modality that integrates the bodywork of Clinical Acupressure with mental, emotional and spiritual processing. Many people who receive this method describe a feeling of "coming home to themselves" in a very authentic and empowering way. 

Typically, a PA session takes from 1 to 1 1/2 hours. You will lie fully clothed on a comfortable massage table while I apply gentle finger pressure to specific acupoint combinations. Normally, the session has several phases:

  • Relaxation: As a state of relaxation occurs, you may become aware of issues within the body and/or consciousness.
  • Awareness: As the session progresses, you may go into a deeper state of awareness, beneath surface tension, to access clarity or guidance about the issues at hand.
  • Integration: Finally, we bring the session to a close with future-pacing, balancing and grounding.

Shiatsu

$90 per 1 hour session

Shiatsu is a Japanese form of massage therapy. The word Shiatsu comes from two Japanese words — "shi" (finger) and "atsu" (pressure). In addition to the direct stimulation of pressure points along the energy pathways of your body, gentle stretching techniques are applied over a wider area of the body to integrate the point work and encourage the flow of Chi (energy) throughout the body. Shiatsu is a meditative healing art that honors the body, mind and spirit.

Tui Na

$90 per 1 hour session

Tui Na is an ancient form of bodywork that is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I use a variety of pressures and strokes along the meridians (energy pathways) of your body to both relax your muscles and also stimulate the flow of energy throughout your body. By treating both the physical (musculature) and energetic (Qi) levels of your body at the same time, I can achieve results far beyond what you’d receive from a conventional massage therapy session.

Massage Therapy

$90 per 1 hour session

There are as many types of massage as there are massage therapists. Most massage therapists use a variety of massage modalities or types in a massage session to best achieve desired results.

The types of massage I offer are traditional Swedish Massage, and Deep Tissue Massage. All massage sessions also incorporate various acupressure techniques, as needed, including gently holding specific acupoint combinations (clinical acupressure), stretching and compressing acupressure meridians (shiatsu), direct meridian massage (tui na).
