Glymphatic Drainage – This is a method that uses a combination of lymphatic drainage techniques, cranial sacral therapy techniques, and Chinese and /or Ayurvedic pressure points in the head and neck region, in order to reduce swelling, brain fog, facial and head pain, decrease congestion, and flush the Glymphatic System of the brain. 60 minute session $130.00

It is a preventative approach focusing on organ system efficiency and cleansing. For each client the exam consists of a combination of alternative modalities such as Iridology, Tongue Study, Facial Observation, Pulse Study, a Japanese Hara technique, Remedy testing, and Natural Treatment plan recommendations. These techniques are not considered a medical diagnosis. For a diagnosis see a physician.

Acupressure – Acupressure uses light to moderate pressure which is applied to acupuncture points with the thumb, fingers, palms, forearms and elbows. Acupressure helps to bring the body into balance.

Lymphatic Acupressure: Lymphatic Acupressure is a specialized body work technique that applies repetitive acupressure at lymph node sites and acupressure along the meridians adjacent to lymph vessels. This is an energetic method that stimulates the movement of lymph fluid. This therapy assists with inflammation due to numerous heath complaints such as sinusitis, arthritis, gastritis, back pain, neck pain and more.

Guided Stretch Therapy (GST)  – GST is a specialized bodywork technique performed on a fully clothed individual, that assists with improving stiffness, reducing tightness, enhancing range of motion, improving flexibility, and reducing pain. Properly guided static stretching allows the nervous system and muscular system to work in synchronicity.

Guided Stretch Therapy has been proven to assist with recovery from injuries and from the soft tissue trauma experienced from exercise, and the participation in sporting events. 

GST slows down the progression of muscle aging, improves the nervous system’s ability to relax, and aides in getting a better night’s sleep.  It is all possible due to the myofascial system being entertwined with the sensory receptors within the muscles, that connect to the spinal cord and the brain.  60 minute session $130.00
