Light Touch Massage |
Our Light Touch Massage treatments allow you to remain fully clothed, and are typically performed without oils or creams. Each session is fully customized and can be adapted to the needs of any individual.
A few of the healing modalities which may be incorporated into your session may include: Cranio-sacral therapy, Myofascial release, gentle massage through clothing, direct pressure/compressions, gentle stretching, aromatherapy, reflexology, and Reiki or subtle energy techniques. By having a conversation first, you and your massage therapist will discuss the best options to incorporate into your healing session.

CranioSacral (CST) is restorative therapy using precise and gentle touch to the head, spine, face, and pelvis to correct imbalances in the fluid and membranes surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord. Relieving these restrictions allows the entire nervous system to function at its best, eliminating stress and pain, creating ease and well-being.
|
Myofascial Release (MFR) uses gentle, sustained pressure to facilitate the release of fascial restrictions. Fascia is continuous connective tissue that provides support and protection for structure within the human body, including muscles.

Aromatherapy (currently not offered but coming back soon) utilizes powerful essential oil extracts from herbs, flowers, and plants to naturally enhance any massage treatment. These essential oils may be directly inhaled, diffused, or applied topically to facilitate relaxation and bring relief to a wide variety of symptoms. Balanced Bodywork Massage Therapy only uses the highest quality therapeutic grade essential oils.

Reiki is a healing technique based on the principle that the therapist channels energy into the patient by means of touch, to activate the natural healing processes of the patient's body and restore physical and emotional well-being.
