What is…
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is a technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas, either following or going across the fibers of the muscles, tendons and fascia.
Deep tissue massage is used to release chronic muscle tension through slower strokes and more direct deep pressure or friction applied across the grain of the muscles not with the grain. Deep tissue massage usually focuses on more specific areas and may cause some soreness during or right after the massage. If the massage is done correctly you should feel better than ever within a day or two.
Reiki
Reiki is not a massage technique. It is not dependent on faith. Although Reiki does embrace a spiritual dimension, it has absolutely no association with religion, and will not interfere or conflict with any belief system or religious practice. Reiki is never a substitute for qualified medical or professional care. Reiki is a system of natural healing.
A typical Reiki session lasts around 45 minutes to 60 minutes or more, but there is no firm time restriction. The person receiving the Reiki is lying comfortably, clothes on, while the practitioner gently acts as a facilitator and channel for the Reiki energies. Sometimes the hands are placed on various parts of the client's body to help channel the energy, other times, the hands are held several inches away from the client's body.
Reiki sessions can be given when a person is healthy to help maintain energy balance or it be given to address a particular aspect of a client's energy field or to address a physical manifestation of some kind. Reiki can help reduce the negative energy effects of too much stress and anxiety on the body.
Reiki-ssage®
Reiki-ssage is the integration of Reiki energy work and touch therapy. Reiki-ssage uses a pure integration of hands-on body therapy, energy work and spiritual healing to create a simultaneous, multi-dimensional approach to healing. By directly affecting all three components of the human form at the same time, there is a much deeper relaxation response, a more dramatic and long term healing response, an ease moving into the body changes, and a much stronger sense of well-being for the client afterward.
Meditative music is played to enhance the experience. The session begins with the client face down, clothes on. The therapist begins at the shoulders and works and down the body to the feet. The client then lays face up and the therapist resumes at the feet, working up the body and finishing at the client's head. A full-body Reiki-ssage lasts approximately one hour.
People who receive Reiki-ssage are finding better results than with traditional massage or pure energy work. They describe the benefits as "a massage that keeps going for days", or "refreshing - like waking up from a 10 year sleep".
Reiki-ssage is much more than just another technique. It is blended within a complete philosophy and approach to healing that can support and strengthen any other modality of healing.
Reiki-Reflex
Reiki-reflex blends together concepts from Reiki, Reflexology and Zone Therapy. Starting where Reiki-ssage left off, Reiki-Reflex continues the progression toward creating a true Multi-Dimensional Touch through the body reflex zones and subtle lines communication.
The feet and/or hands are worked on. If the session is on the feet, shoes and socks are removed. The session begins with the client lying face up on a massage table or sitting in a reflexology chair.
Both our feet and hands have reflex points that correlate to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. The reflex points you find in the feet will be the same reflex points found in the hand. If you put your feet and hands together, you are looking at your body. Anything found on the left side of the body, such as your heart, will be found in your left foot or hand. Anything found on the right side of your body, such as your appendix, will be found in your right foot or hand. Stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way, a type of preventative maintenance.
When touch therapy is blended with Reiki, the effectiveness of the treatment is enhanced dramatically. Many potential clients have concerns about receiving touch from another person on their bodies. However, they will often accept a hand or foot massage. Other potential clients are skeptical about pure energy work. Reiki-reflex is a wonderful extension to give clients the best of both worlds simultaneously.
Reiki-reflex cannot make any condition worse. It helps nature normalize body functions. A session relaxes the stress that can affect your health safely and effectively.
Reiki-reflex is blissfully relaxing for the client, and lasts approximately 45 minutes.
Swedish Massage
The term "Swedish Massage" refers to a variety of techniques specifically designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart.
The main purpose of Swedish massage is to increase the oxygen flow in the blood and release toxins from the muscles.
Swedish massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissues of lactic acid, uric acid, and other metabolic wastes. It increases circulation without increasing heart load. It stretches the ligaments and tendons keeping them supple and pliable. It reduces stress and is suggested in a regular program for stress management. It also has many specific medical uses.
