Cupping Massage
Cupping therapy is an ancient alternative medicine technique that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction and increase blood flow to a specific area. The suction relieves muscle tension by improving blood circulation to the area which brings much needed nutrients to the connective tissue in the areas to hydrate, oxygenate and release the tension around the muscle fibers. When the cups are used in a dynamic manner (moving over the skin after suction has been established) it helps break up adhesions in the connective tissue much more quickly and easily than manual massage or stationary cupping alone.

IASTM Massage
IASTM works like a standard massage, but specialized instruments are used in place of a massage therapist's hands. These instruments allow more direct treatment of the soft tissues involved with movement.
IASTM refers to a technique that uses instruments in a quick, rhythmic gliding or "scraping" motion applied to the skin over soft tissue dysfunction to remove scar tissues from injured soft tissues.
This breaks up scar tissue and adhesions, allowing the muscles and fascia to be separated. Separating the muscles and fascia allows them to lengthen and facilitate a faster and more efficient healing process through formation of new extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen.

Massage & Reiki
Massage according to client physical needs is provided while energetically feeling where energetic obstructions, deficiencies, or overactivity lie in the energy bodies. After physical massage, 20-30 mins of solely energy work is done to address areas of need, closing the session by sealing the energetic field (aura) with Divine light / channeled Source energy.
​
Reiki is a healing technique based on the understanding that we are primarily energetic beings connected (as all else in existence) to Source energy - the physical body is simply the densest part of our entire being, so healing happens energetically first. The practitioner serves to channel Source energy into the clients bio-field to achieve energetic homeostasis by means of touch or gently stroking the energy field a few inches above / around the physical body to activate the natural healing processes of the clients body and restore physical and emotional well-being.
