We are all in a constant state of change, our mind and body are always adapting. My goal is to help you adapt and balance your energy, bringing you closer to yourself. I blend different techniques such as Swedish, Shiatsu and Holy Fire Reiki. I offer firm pressure, utilizing sports massage and deep tissue techniques. However, I can also provide lighter touch for relaxation massage and energy healing. Each session is customized to your needs. Before each session I check with your preferences, as they may change day to day.
Depending on the type of massage, you will remain clothed or be draped with sheets and a blanket when necessary. I have coconut oil and grapeseed oil available. If you feel you need a different option due to skin sensitivity, feel free to reach out and make a request! You're also free to bring oil of your choice.
Your comfort is my goal. This is your session and I encourage communication and deep breathing to help guide your session. I will always check in with you to be sure you're comfortable.
I want to help you feel better in your body and bring awareness to areas in need of attention.
I tend to remain quiet during massage but I'll ask how you're doing throughout and will occasionally cue you to breathe by breathing deeply myself.
Optional-
I can incorporate full chest and breast massage for many reasons, including but not limited to: post surgical scarring, pain relief from breastfeeding or those wanting to increase lactation, relief from menstrual pain and discomfort.
Enhanced circulation and lymphatic drainage are the main benefits of this work.
Breast massage can also be good for connecting with your body, emotional/psychological benefits and early detection of abnormalities.
Breast Massage, what to expect-
I allow time for dialogue and open communication so we're clear on your expectations and needs for the session. I provide a consent form for you to clarify your level of comfort and I also check in with you during session to ensure your comfortable. I can use multiple draping methods, to maintain modesty as desired. The majority of techniques are focused on the intercostals, the ribcage and surrounding muscles which aid in breathing. I generally include some abdominal work as well.
I can also stop or adjust methods at any point if you decide you're uncomfortable for any reason. I hope to help normalize the incorporation of full chest/breast massage into a therapeutic massage, for those who are interested and in need of this work.
I completed a 16 hour full chest and breast massage. NCBTMB approved course.
