Exfoliation is the removal of dry/dead skin cells on the surface of the skin and is one of the most important aspects of proper skin care. It can help many skin problems and increases blood circulation, which in turn helps you to achieve healthy and glowing skin. This session will include your choice of a coffee or oatmeal scrub for the exfoliation process, along with a gentle massage with a hydrating lotion or oil.
Add on a foot, hand, or back scrub to your massage for only $10 more. You get to choose between a coffee or oatmeal scrub. If wanting to add more than one area, please discuss when scheduling the appointment, as more time may need to be added on.

This treatment combines your normal massage with techniques of using heated basalt stones to work the muscles. Hot stones expand the blood vessels, encouraging increased blood flow throughout the body; they also produce a sedative effect which helps to alleviate chronic pain. For those that like a deeper massage, the stones allow the therapist to get further into the muscles.

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.
I am a Reiki Level I - Sho den. I am offering Reiki sessions at a discounted price until I am complete with my Level II in the practice. Please contact me in regards to pricing for this modality.
During cup therapy, a glass cup is placed on the skin to create a vacuum. This draws the blood to the surface of the skin in the area of the body that is needing healing. Cups can be please in areas of tension to alleviate pain; or specific points on the body can be used to help with various ailments. Ancient cultures also believe that cup therapy works to restore the life force we have in our body, thus relieving physical ailments.
