A real soultion to pain


Do you have migraines? Headaches? Chronic tension and pain? Carpal Tunnel Syndrome? Tennis Elbow? Knee pain? IBS? Depression? Well guess what, massage therapy can help. I've seen it help numerous of my clients, and often after they've tried everything under the sun to fix it, but nothing worked. I massage to help heal, to fix the problem. A massage for relaxation is nice, but often we can't afford "nice". We need real results, real relief from real problems that interfere with our normal life. My goal and desire is to alleviate your pain, and bring relief. I specialize in Injury, Trigger point and Structural Massage, and I will work with you to help you feel your best. Give me a chance, and I promise I won't disappoint. I have availability this week if interested.

Moved!

After 4 months, I have decided to move my business back to my home. Although the salon was such a fun place to work, and a great social atmosphere, it was not conducive for a relaxing massage. With all the noise of the salon, it was hard for both my clients and myself to transcend into a world of bliss.
So, I'm bringing it back home, to my beautiful spa room, that is quiet and peaceful and perfect. Good news is, it's only about a minute away from the salon, right here in Alpine, so it shouldn't be any inconvenience for my clients to follow me :) I am very excited to have control of the atmosphere again, as well as opening up more hours.

So here is my Super Summer Special for booking with me in August! Book any massage at regular price, and get a Hot/Cold Stone add on for free! It really makes all the difference in the massage, and really helps in the healing process of your muscles. So please come in, and mention this special at the time of booking! Also, I have lowered my prices slightly! Check out my pricing list on my blog. Can't wait to see all of you soon!

Prenatal Massage


Did you know...

Prenatal massage can greatly reduce swelling and pain in your legs due to sciatic nerve pain or aches and pains in your legs and feet. It moves the lymph and water retention due to decreased circulation to the lower half of your body during pregnancy. I have had many a blossoming client find relief from their achy, swollen feet and sciatic nerve pain that they have dealt with throughout their pregnancy, especially during the third trimester.

Prenatal massage can also decrease the pain of those pesky Braxton Hicks contractions and relax your body enough to let that tension go. Massage will decrease stress, (emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and of course physically) so if your doc says that horrible phrase (bed rest) due to too much stress, this may be your answer.

Prenatal massage can significantly help with regulating your hormone levels that are linked to relaxation and stress. Women who received a massage twice a week for only five weeks had a decrease in the stress hormones such as cortisol and the happy hormones, serotonin and dopamine were increased. Because of this, there were fewer complications during labor and delivery, and also with the health of the newborn.

Prenatal massage is just wonderful, and well-deserved, when your body is constantly changing and working so hard to create life. It was the best thing I did for myself during my very complicated pregnancy, so I can say from personal experience that it helps, and makes all the difference.

Not your average "fluff and buff" Therapist

If you are one of those people who love "fluff and buff" massages, I'm not your therapist. But if you are one of those people who need results, have real pain you are dealing with, and want to feel a difference when you get off my table, I'm your girl. I believe that if you are going to spend your hard-earned money on a massage, you better be able to see the benefits right after. That's the kind of work I do. And my clients appreciate it. Let me know if you're sick of trying cortizone shots and doctors who want to do surgery on you, and come and try me. Many have seen an improvement in the very first visit.

New addition :)


Healing power of touch will be offering Hot and Cold Stone Massage very soon! I am very excited for this new service that will be on the menu! There are so many wonderful benefits of receiving Hot Stone and Cold Stone therapy. The basalt stones are warmed in a electric roaster with water, similar to a crock pot, and applied to the meridians. Then they are used to massage the muscles. The heat is wonderful for the muscles, and promotes a quicker relaxation response. Hot stone massage is used as a therapy to relieve certain health problems such as arthritis, anxiety, stress, back pain, depression, insomnia and circulation. Hot stone massage improves blood circulation through the body and eliminates toxins out of the body. It helps to maintain a healthy heart. Also, Cold Stone massage is used to treat migraines and injuries. It really is a wonderfully relaxing experience, with so many benefits, and I cannot wait to offer this to my clients!
