Integrative Bodywork fuses diverse yet complementary applications and techniques into a harmonic retuning of the energetic and physical bodies. Incorporating elements from all the modalities I practice, each session engages the whole being on multiple levels simultaneously. Integrative Bodywork provides a comprehensive approach to release, cleanse, energize, and reintegrate all systems of the body. Experience sublime embodiment like no other.

Fount ~120 minutes ~ Fusing the Mantle, the Crown, and the Core for a comprehensive and luxuriant treatment. Embody the wellspring of light you have always been!

Craniosacral Therapy engages the body's nervous system through gentle touch and atunement. The central nervous system floats within the cerebrospinal fluid, encased by membranes enveloping the brain and spinal cord ~ from cranium to sacrum. The fluid has it's own pulse ~ slower, quieter, and distinct from the hearbeat and breath, which expands and contracts the spaces within, providing nourishment for the nerve tissue and an optimal medium for the central nervous system to function.

Long term health problems, injuries, persistent stress, emotional trauma, and less than ideal ergonomics can divert the optimal flow and pulse of the cerebrospinal fluid and have systems wide effects across the body. Craniosacral therapy can provide benefits for a range of conditions, including chronic pain, anxiety, depression PTSD, migraines headaches, cervical / spinal issues, arthritis, asthma and breathing challenges, sinusitis, insomnia, post operative recovery, and injury from emotional and physical trauma.

Lymphatic Therapy is a rhythmic, stimulating bodywork of primarily light touch, addressing the lymphatic system ~ the body's immune transport and waste removal system. For those who are detoxifying or cleansing, recovering from illness, injury or medical procedure, or seeking to boost immune function, lymphatic therapy is ideal. This bodywork stimulates the natural flow of the lymph vessels through subtle massage across the skin, underneath which the majority of vessels lay. Lymph nodes (at the neck, shoulder / armpits, elbows, belly, inguinal region, knees and ankles) are addressed with deeper intent. The massage stimulates the circulation of lymph, with benefits including fluid drainage from face / sinuses, extremities and abdomen, reduced swelling of nodes and edemas, removal of toxins and wastes, stimulation of the immune system, accelerated healing, reduction of scar tissue, and breaking up of subdermal fat.

Acupressure is an energy therapy, utilizing bio-eletric field interface between practitioner and client, gentle or firm touch, and with attention to the organ chi meridians of the body, common to Traditional Chinese Medicine and other healing systems. Rather than using needles, connection is made with human touch and intention. These biological electric circuits (among these ~ the autonomic and parasympathetic nervous systems) are  accessed, flushed and toned throughout the body. Profound relaxation, energetic balance and calm stillness can be achieved through acupressure. Jin Shin acupressure is a sister art to Jin Shin Do and Jin Shin Jyutsu, all healing modalities that developed from the work of Jiro Murai in the early twentieth century, who in his own journey of self healing, rediscovered the human touch component of meridian work. Acupressure is both a consitutional therapy, benefiting the entire body, and a potent treatment for localized stress, disease, trauma, or injury. Acupressure can address energetic blockages, chronic pain, digestive issues, skin conditions, headaches and problems of eyesight, sleep patterns and insomnia, and recovery from injury, disease or medical procedure.

Cupping is an invigorating modality, utilizing negative pressure ~ suction through cups of different size and material ~ to provide a therapy and experience distinct from manual therapy. Practiced for centuries across Asia, the Middle East and Europe, it has a wide range of benefits for health and wellness. Different types of cups are used for different results ~ Glass fire cupping: using heat to create suction, are ideal for drawing out toxins and a potent stimulant of meridian points. Silicone cupping: squeezable cups can be used dynamically for magnified Deep Tissue and Sports sessions. Belletaze Facial cups and Earth Spa Bells: small and finely crafted glass cups with bulbs attached to give precision control of pressure, for facial massage and treatment of décolletage. Excellent as a conclusion to the Full Body Lymphatic massage.

Deep Tissue is a full body soft tissue therapy, accessing inner musculoskeletal and myofascial layers of the body. Penetrating pressure is applied to the complex muscle groups of the neck and shoulders ~ rotator cuff, bursa, subscapularis, serratus, rhomboids and levator, scalines , hips, lower back and legs ~ iliop-psoas, adductors, abductors, rotators, piriformis, IT band and TFL, erector spinae and and the deep spinal muscles wrapped around the vertebral column. In conjunction with passive stretching, rhythmic joint articulation and percussion/ chopping, a profound relaxing of the body is achieved. Reduction of pain and stiffness, flushing of toxins, and improved range of motion are all results of the deep tissue massage.

Sports massage benefits those with higher intensity work-out regimens,training for or recovering from athletic events, practicing martial artists, dancers in performance, or those who just have harder bodies and need maximal pressure and penetration of soft tissue layers. This bodywork utilizes deep tissue technique at a brisker pace, with greater emphasis on percussive strokes, kneading of the muscles, stretches and deeper penetrating pressure, targeting areas of greatest stress. Improved circulation, breaking up of scar tissue and fascial adhesions, increased flexibility,and decreased recovery time can be had with the Sports massage.

Swedish  is the classic relaxing massage, Swedish uses bold flowing strokes ("effleurage") in conjunction with focused work ("petrissage") on detail areas to warm and loosen the body up and increase circulation. Rhythmic percussion ("tapotement"), rocking and passive stretching release tension and improve flexibility and range of movement. I massage the body’s superficial muscles and fascia using light to deep pressure. Improved bloodflow and oxygenation, flushing of toxins, reduction of stress and pain, and increased relaxation are all benefits of this massage.
