Natural Therapy

Massage therapy, one of the oldest and most natural forms of healing arts, has been used for centuries to ease muscle pain and reduce stress.

The benefits of massage therapy include the promotion of body/mind balance, stress reduction, release of tension, pain relief, increased flexibility, energy restoration, increased alertness and improved circulation.

Available Services

  • Ear Candling: Ear candling is a therapy that has been used for centuries to relieve migraines, allergies and sinus problems. It also helps to prevent frequent ear infections. The process involves gently inserting the base of an ear candle a fraction of an inch into the outer ear canal. The candle is then lit and the flame creates a vacuum that naturally and gently pulls the wax, moisture and other residues out of the ear and into the candle.
  • Hot Stone Massage: This is a full-body massage with the added benefit of heat therapy. Smooth river stones are heated and used throughout the massage to stimulate muscles and increase circulation.
  • Reflexology: With this therapy, the practitioner stimulates pressure points within the feet and hands to improve the overall health of the client.
  • Reiki: This is a Japanese therapy for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by a gentle laying on of hands by the practitioner which allows for the flow of the ‘universal life energy’ through the hands.
  • Swedish Massage: This type of massage involves deep tissue manipulation, pressure point release and reflexology.
  • Therapeutic Massage: With a therapeutic massage, the focus is on the skeletal, muscular and nervous systems with the goal of alleviating pain and discomfort.
