Pre and Post Natal Massage Pre-Natal Massage is a combination of Californian and Swedish Massage techniques that are applied gently and safely for the pregnant woman and her baby. The pregnant client is placed on the massage bed or ergonomically designed chair in a position that is both comfortable and which takes special consideration of the lower back and the legs to relieve back pain and decrease muscular swelling in the legs and feet. Massage gel or oil is used. The mother’s belly is also gently massaged.The benefits of this therapy are twofold; whatever is received by the mother is also received by the baby. The soothing effects of massage carry over; ‘good’ hormones are stimulated, heart rate and neural activity are decreased. The immune system is boosted and the detoxification of the liver and kidneys are encouraged. Post-Natal Massage is the gentle massage of the abdomen and stomach after the birth of the child. For those who have had caesarian section, massage of the scar tissue is an effective way to deal with the often tight tissue left behind by this surgery. Often clients describe a tingling, raw, or numb sensation in the area long after surgery. Gentle massage of the area can help to loosen the fibrous tissue, reduce pain and help restore normal sensation

Cupping Therapy Massage is a method that uses specialized silicone cups and regular massage techniques (of kneading and rubbing) to loosen tight muscles. When a client has lost some range of motion and is suffering from localized and referred pain, cupping therapy massage will help release tense muscles and break up scar tissue to ultimately relieve the discomfort. This technique is intense and designed for individuals with a high pain threshold.

The word Reiki is derived from two Japanese words Rei = Universal and Ki = Life Force Energy. Reiki is based on the premise that invisible energy flows through the body much like cars driving along a highway. As long as the energy, like the cars, flow freely, the body is balanced, harmonized and in tune. When this energy gets backed up, like traffic, everything is thrown off kilter causing stress, tension, anxiety and illness. Reiki is a hands-on energy therapy that manipulates energy flow around the body to reduce stress and stimulate deep relaxation. Reiki promotes healing on all levels; physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. In this case, the client is a participant in the therapy. Reiki is a flow of energy between the Reiki practitioner and the participant. During a session, participants may experience physical sensations such as tingling, cold, warmth, lightness, heaviness, buoyancy or a floating feeling. After a session many clients express feeling refreshed and calm. Reiki is performed on a fully clothed person lying down on the floor or on a massage table. The Reiki practitioner lays their hands along or above the participants’ seven energy centers or Chakras. Energy is passed between practitioner and client leaving the recipient feeling completely relaxed.
