Massage Therapy….

Massage is the only healthcare practice, or medicine if you will, found in use by every culture on earth. Touch is vital to humans.

The amount we’re touched, sometimes, does decrease. Massage is a wonderful way to incorporate touch into your life in a new and healing way.

Reflexology….

Reflexology is a holistic healing art – a form of therapeutic foot massage – which falls into the realm of ‘alternative’ or better put, ‘complimentary’ medicine not included in the toolbox of mainstream, orthodox Western medicine. Disease is approached from the understanding of man as a complex organism comprised of body, mind and spirit.

Sound Healing….

Change Your Tone, Change Your Life

Sound Healing has been around since the beginning of human civilization. It is used as a healing tool by both modern and indigenous cultures.

Sound works in unique ways. Sound and energy are vibrations. They enter the system, clear dissonance, and restore harmony. Matter is energy vibrating at varying rates. As the rate of vibration is adjusted, the structure of matter changes, Harmony results when normal vibrational frequencies are restored.

Yoga….

Yoga has been around for close to 5,000 years. Yoga encompasses more than just poses and exercise, stretching and focus. It can be seen as a lifestyle, including diet, breath, exercise, thought, meditation and relaxation. Taking a yoga class is a way to start incorporating yogic breathing and stretching into your lifestyle.
