The Importance of Those Moments

CST is a light-touch, whole-body treatment technique developed by John E. Upledger, DO, OMM. CST works with the body’s craniosacral system to support and nourish the central nervous system — improving overall health and well-being. It is a complementary method of hands-on bodywork,  working with the natural and unique rhythms of the different body systems to pinpoint and address restrictions. CST helps to alleviate the aches, pains and strains of life, improving coping mechanisms to allow for better management of stress. It improves the body’s ability to heal and can produce profound, positive changes.

Using this gentle and loving approach to emotional healing, we work to discover beliefs and patterns that may be limiting you. Life's challenges, stresses and traumas create emotions and thoughts that become beliefs and develop into patterns. Although they may have served to protect you for a time,  these patterns can make it difficult to live in the present. They can limit your ability to develop and cultivate lasting relationships with yourself and others. Working together, we  deepen your relationship with your mind, body and spirit, releasing these limiting beliefs and striving for a sense of wholeness and safety. 

Massage therapy is a holistic practice that utilizes manual manipulation of soft tissues to promote relaxation, relieve pain, improve circulation, and enhance overall wellbeing by addressing muscle tension, stress, and discomfort. As a massage therapist, I provide a range of therapies to address your specific needs, whether relaxation from everyday stress or targeted deep tissue work for recovery from injury. I utilize various techniques to improve your overall wellbeing and promote optimal function of your body in a comfortable and relaxing environment. Cupping and Gua Sha techniques  are offered upon request. 

Lymphatic drainage is a gentle massage technique that stimulates the natural movement of lymph fluid throughout the body, helping to remove waste products, toxins, and excess fluid from tissues by gently directing it towards the lymph nodes and ultimately back into the circulatory system to be removed from the body. Lymphatic drainage improves circulation, alleviates muscle tension and promotes detoxification. It is extremely beneficial for those recovering from surgery, experiencing post-surgical swelling or those that experience painful conditions such as fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, and lipedema. It also can aid those that are breast or chest feeding, experiencing engorgement, mastitis and/or clogged ducts.
