We believe many illnesses are caused by the toxins in our foods. Avoiding manufactured ingredients and pesticides reduces the harmful substances entering our bodies. Replacing them with cleaner, more organically grown food, whenever possible, aids the body in healing itself and preventing future disease. Choosing healthy ingredients that provide nourishment to the body is optimal in assisting an individual to be their healthiest. We understand that many individuals have dietary intolerances and we can assist you to determine what foods may be negatively impacting your health, as well as provide you some suggestions on how to work around this.
Massage therapy provides multiple benefits to the individual receiving the massage. Among these are, improved circulation, stress relief and relaxation, reduced muscle tension, improved sleep, pain management, improved mood, increased flexibility and boosted immune function. We provide a variety of massage to meet the needs of each client. Some of these include: Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, pregnancy massage, chair massage, trigger point massage, Gua-sha massage and lymphatic drainage. We can incorporate hot stones, hot towels, cupping therapy, aromatherapy and music, as well as CBD lotion if preferred.
Meditation is a beneficial practice for the mind and body, as it allows the individual to enter a state of calm and relaxation. Meditation leads to increases in the "feel-good" neurotransmitters in the brain: dopamine (pleasure), serotonin (happiness) and GABA (calmness). Incorporating a mindfulness meditation practice in one's daily routine is a natural way to promote a healthy body, mind and spirit.
Reiki is a healing technique that involves a practitioner directing energy to an individual by laying hands on the body or through distance, as is done in distance Reiki. Reiki practitioners have experienced an attunement, which opens them up to access the healing energy and impart it on other individuals. Reiki typically works with the energy of the Chakras. Some individuals experience a sensation of relaxation and peace, while others may experience an emotional release as they are working through the healing process.
Craniosacral therapy utilizes a gentle, hands-on technique used to manipulate the head, spine, chest cavity and pelvis in order to assist the body's own healing capabilities. It is thought that it may be utilized for a variety of medical conditions, including pain throughout the body, stress, anxiety, chronic fatigue, immune disorders, nervous system disorders and headaches.
Reflexology is a practice that involves applying different amounts of pressure to specific points on the feet, which are believed to correlate to certain parts/organs of the body. It is said to help with relaxation, fatigue, pain, anxiety, as well as in assisting the body's own healing process. Some reflexologists also work on hands and ears.
We absorb toxins through our skin, the food we eat, substances we use, the air we breathe. Our bodies are working daily to flush toxins out, through a variety of means, including urination, defecation, sweating, breathing, etc. When we are unable to adequately flush the toxins out, our body systems become compromised, and this leads to symptoms such as fatigue, constipation, skin conditions, difficulty losing weight, headaches, sleep difficulties, swelling, emotional disturbances, as well as muscle and joint pain, to name a few. Ionic foot detoxification machines work by electrolyzing the water into negative and positive ions, through the use of an array placed in a tub of water, and adding salt as needed to achieve the correct treatment level. Once the hydrogen anions have passed through the pores of the feet they move into the circulatory and lymphatic systems and through the cell membranes where they neutralize positively charged free radicals (toxins). This allows the toxins to become neutralized and they can more easily release from the cells through osmosis.
