Reflexology is the study of reflex points on the feet and hands that correlate to each organ, gland and all parts of the body. When stimulation or pressure is applied to these specific reflex points, it allows the body to return to balance or homeostasis. Thus, it balances the Chi or life force similar to acupuncture. Come learn this ancient healing art of reflexology.  The proven benefits of reflexology include:

• Overall relaxation response
• Pain reduction
• Improvement of symptoms of health concerns
• Increased blood circulation
• Relax muscles
• Enhancement of medical care
• Complement to cancer care and stroke rehabilitation
• Adjunct to mental health care
• Post-operative recovery and pain reduction 
• Easier delivery and post-partum recovery
• And much more…

Reflexology can be a “stand-alone” modality, it can be incorporated into a massage or it can be an “add-on” to a massage.

The goal of Fascia BodyWork is to focus on the fascia and create a more fluid fascia rather than  ‘gel-like’.  This type of massage stroke function is to create a drag on the tissue instead of a gliding.  The drag assists the fascia to become more fluid instead of gel-like. Thus, allowing the fascia to flow more freely, allowing the muscles more function and flexibility and increasing the range of motion of the joints.  Fascia BodyWork benefits are:

• noticeable increased flexibility
• helps improve posture and balance
• restores more efficient muscles
• aids in relief of chronic pain
• revitalize one’s energy; as a result, providing a better quality of life
• easier on the therapist because there’s no digit/finger work.
• Side-lying position taught for increased ROM for neck, shoulders and hips
