This gentle touch modality is meant to help balance the movement of your craniosacral membranes and the fluid surrounding your brain and spinal cord, including your entire nervous system. It is very beneficial for stress, anxiety, chronic pain, trauma, and overall wellbeing. Minimal movement is used as I assess and respond to the signals of your body gives throughout the session. People feel a deep sense of relaxation, some feel deeper movements due to the release of restrictions, and some feel a calming vibration as the cerebrospinal fluid and nervous systems are balanced. Symptoms assisted by CST are relief from chronic pain and tension, improved emotional wellbeing, improved mind body awareness, balanced hormones and improved reproductive health, stress relief, and improved sleep.
Hijama Cupping is an ancient Islamic practice that helps to relieve the body of tension and wastes through the release of pathogenic substances that could create damage within the body. Although "hijama" specifically is an Islamic practice, the practice of releasing blood wastes has been performed for more than 1,000 years by many different cultures and is also popular in Traditional Chinese Medicine. In modern times, the practice of leech therapy is risen, yet the concept is the same. Hijama cupping is a great way to assist with hormone balance, menstrual and reproductive health, fertility, immunity, circulation, stress & anxiety, pain, digestion, and other imbalances.
*Hijama is not a cure for any disease or health challenge and should be used and seen as natural complement to your regular healthcare plan.
Abdominal massage and visceral manipulation target distress and imbalance in the abdominal region and internal organs that can have negative effects on physical and emotional wellbeing. Using gentle pressure, the soft tissues of your abdomen, organs, and other structures are massaged in a way that helps to improve circulation, calm tension, restore alignment, improve reproductive and digestive health, and reduce stress, overwhelm, and anxiety. It is also very beneficial for reducing scar tissue at the skin level and deeper into the body at the organ level. People who have benefitted greatly from this service are those with anxiety, digestive issues, infertility, endometriosis, diastais recti, c-section scar tissue, PTSD, breathing issues, GERD/acid reflux, pain in the back, hips, and pelvis.
This service is a combination of gentle craniosacral and myofascial techniques to help relax the tissues of your head, face, neck, shoulders, and upper chest and back. Although the touch is light, these techniques sink deep into the tissues to release tension and discomfort, and release restrictions that can prohibit free movement. CST also helps to relieve strain caused by incorrect posture frim sitting, working on computers, or constant cell phone use. It helps to reduce the stress that can cause physical tension in the neck and shoulders as well. It's wonderful for relieving headaches and migraines, easing sinus congestion and pressure, reducing jaw tension and TMJ/TMJD discomfort. People experience a deep state of relaxation, followed by a more positive outlook and enhanced mental clarity and focus.
STR helps improve tissue function by releasing the restrictions that prevent free movement and reduce that circulation that is necessary for tissue repair. It improves tissue function, mobility, and overall body alignment, as well as addresses the physical and emotional impact of scars. This is a wonderful way to gain relief from discomfort and restrictions that may not have been associated with scar tissue but are impacted by it. Scar tissue from childbirth, injuries, surgeries, and accidents can cause constriction of the tissues that affect posture, balance, movement, and cause chronic pain. Because many people develop insecurities due to scarring, having scar tissue release can greatly improve confidence and improve body-positivity. All types of scars, from the smallest needle prick to open heart surgery and burns can benefit from scar tissue release. This service on our menu is meant to specifically target the scar tissue and does not include any massage or other services. However, they can be added separately.
