Body & Energy Services

How happy can your body and mind be? Really! Is your body or your brain crying out, begging to be heard, desiring to feel better, have more ease and space? Co-creating with my clients to allow their bodies and minds to feel better, expand, and move with ease is my favorite thing!

Ask questions and listen to your body and your mind. Which do you hear most loudly? Is your body or your mind asking for contribution, space, expansion, and ease? What do you seek from this session? How would you like to feel after this session?

If you hear your body, I recommend choosing Access Consciousness Body Process(es), Access Consciousness Facelift, Tellington TTouch Body Wrapping, Ionic Detox Foot Soak, or Grounding Therapy. If you hear your mind, I recommend an Access Consciousness Bars, Access Consciousness Facelift, or Grounding Therapy.

What comes to mind first is often where I begin, and I’ll do my best to co-create with you to meet those targets.


 

Access Consciousness Bars

32 points on your head ….. Gentle touch ….. Clear energetic blockages in the brain ….. Let go of what isn’t in alignment with YOU ….. Let go of “shoulds” ….. Let go of old methods, systems, beliefs that don’t fit your life now or the life you desire to create ….. Space opens to allow for clarity, creativity and more to show up in contribution to you ….. What else is possible?

If your mind is calling out to you, choose an Access Consciousness Bars session.

Bars can unblock energy causing dis-ease that may be showing up as, or as a result of:

  • stress, overwhelm

Access Consciousness Body Processes

Access Consciousness Body Processes unlock all the places energy has been locked up in your body. The processes are the key to unlock energy and restore flow. It’s a hands-on, light touch process that eliminates stress and tension from the body by releasing stuck energy. Often, when clients are receiving therapeutic massage, their body is receptive to receiving Access Consciousness Body Processes in conjunction with their massage, although a full session of body processing can also be done while the client remains clothed.

Cupping Therapy

Whereas massage therapy is a positive force, pushing into the body, cupping therapy is a negative force, lifting the tissues up. As this happens, fresh blood, oxygen, and nutrients flood into areas that may have become stagnant and “stuck” feeling. As the fresh blood circulates into the area being treated, the stagnant blood and cell debris move up to the surface of the skin. This is called sha, discoloration often misidentified as a bruise. The lymphatic system helps to flush the stagnant blood and cell debris, or sha, out of the area, and the discoloration usually fades within a few days. Dynamic cupping can be beneficial without leaving marks.

Available as an Add-On to Therapeutic Massage sessions. 

Why include cupping?

  • to increase range of motion
  • increase fluid movement of your body
  • allow a feeling of space and expansion between muscle fibers and fascia
  • treat pain, sciatica, fibromyalgia
  • treat poor circulation, weak muscles, edema 

See Policies for before and after treatment information.

 

Cupping therapy is offered as an additional tool within a therapeutic massage only, with the exceptions of Facial Rejuvenation and Cellulite Treatment.


 

Gua Sha

Gua sha is a bodywork technique that uses a round-edged tool to apply pressure and scrape the body for therapeutic purposes which aim to create change in the tissues and relief for the client. Changes can be in color, texture, temperature, flexibility, as well as client perception of how their body feels and functions. While Gua sha does not break the skin or cause a contusion, it does bring a perfusion of blood to the superficial vessels.

Most often, I use gua sha only on specific areas. It is unlikely that I would use gua sha in as many areas as pictured at right, this is just an example of the effects gua sha can produce.

Available as an Add-On to Therapeutic Massage sessions.

Like cupping, gua sha can:

  • break up adhesions (aka “knots”)
  • relieve stubborn pain
  • relieve feeling of stuckness
  • relieve congestion
  • relieve stiff or aching muscles
  • be used to reduce tennis/golfer’s elbow symptoms
  • be used to work intricate parts of hands, arms, feet

See Policies for before and after treatment information, and What is Gua sha? handout.

Gua Sha is offered as an additional tool within a therapeutic massage only, with the exception of Facial Rejuvenation. 


 

Grounding Therapy

Our lives are built pretty insulated against contact with the earth. Studies about the benefits of gardening prove how contact with the earth, soil, nature, plants, etc make a positive impact on both our physical and mental health. Ground therapy allows us to receive this connection while we rest, sleep, and even while we work.

Available as an Add-On to many other services. If you’d like a Grounded Nap, reach out and inquire about possible scheduling.

What can ground therapy do?

  • improve quality of sleep
  • reduce inflammation, chronic pain, muscle cramping, and stiffness
  • calms nervous system: anxiety, emotional stress, panic, fear, headaches, dizziness
  • increase energy
  • may be combined with other body & energy services
  • mats, cords, and electrodes available to purchase for home use
