Foot Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, depression and much more.
Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms are strengthened, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, to detoxify your system, and to restore your vital life force energy. Reiki may utilize a gentle laying on of hands. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.
Hot Oil Wrap is a method to help hydrate and restore the skin and to promote relaxation. After dry brushing the entire body, a generous amount of grapeseed oil and coconut oil gel is applied to the entire body. You are then wrapped in plastic plus several other layers of wraps while lying on a heated table for 20-30 minutes. The environment is very serene and relaxing. You are then slowly unwrapped while the lubricants are massaged into the skin. It is important to drink water and/or hot green tea to keep the body warm and hydrated.
