A Few
Words on Massage |

many people automatically contract muscles all the time. A good massage
will teach you to relax and turn off the muscle. The foundation of

Services Offered: |
Soothing Touch: Relaxation Massage
Long,
smooth strokes combined with beautiful warm oils to create the blissful
state you desire. What's happening underneath is the parasympathetic
nervous system alleviates inflammation and helps to detoxify the body
by nurturing the function of the lymph system. Occidental as well as
Oriental techniques can be employed to facilitate the reconnection of
energy flow and balance.
|
Therapeutic
Deep Tissue/Swedish Combination
Occasionally,
the deeper musculature and facial layers are worked on to release core
tension. Myofascia release therapeutically breaks up scar tissue and
reorganizes muscle structure to its desired state of released tension.
(Structure defines function.) Elbows and deeper finger pressure are
used when appropriate.

Basalt
Hot Stone Therapy
Basalt rocks deposit deep heat to traumatized areas (there are various
contraindications, which we should discuss together). As the heat is
deposited, the energy of the trauma enters the rock. Heat from the
rocks penetrates deeply into areas difficult to reach by tool or hand.
Rock heat relaxes the entire being, making tight muscles more pliable.
Rock heat is a gentle, yet intense, energy. The rock and therapist fuse
energies and work together to help the client achieve balance and
harmony in their mind, body and spirit.

Men are
born soft and supple; dead, they are stiff and hard.
Plants are
born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry.
Thus whoever
is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death.
Whoever is
soft and yielding is a disciple of life.
The hard and
stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.
-Tao Te Ching |
Considerations
-
Arriving a few minutes early is recommended to allow ample time to
prepare before your session start time.
- Please shower prior to your massage to reap the benefit of our oils.
Leave them on after your massage if you can for a couple of hours to
maximize the benefit of the oilation process.
-
Please come hydrated. Several glasses of water the day prior and
morning of your service should be sufficient. Excessive alcohol and
caffeine consumption lead to dehydration. Keep this in mind when
booking your massage, so that you feel more relaxed and rejuvenated when
you leave.
-
You will be kept completely draped during your massage. I encourage a
quiet reflective session for you to completely release tension.
-
Tipping is at your discretion.
-
If you are unable to keep your appointment, please provide 24-hour
notice. Please honor my time that could have
been filled with other clients by paying 1/2 of your scheduled fee
if the 24-hour notice is not possible. Thank you.

Oils:
Kim will use only the highest quality, organic oils on your skin. There
is a very good reason for this. The skin is the largest organ of your
body, which allows quick assimilation of unwanted toxins straight into
the bloodstream. With this in mind, why would anyone use anything but
the highest quality oil for massage? Blended properly, body oils are
wonderfully nourishing without the “just been oiled” feeling.
Essential Oils
can be added to massage oils, making a custom blend for use during your
massage and/or available for you to purchase and take home. Many of her
oils can be hand-blended in small batches for you with loving care and
attention.
Kim brings a unique blend of experience and wisdom
into your massage with professionalism & intuition. She has skilled
experience in massage, nutrition, herbalism, knowledge of oilation
techniques, yoga and other healing modalities which improve the quality
and depth of your session.
