Guided Stretch Therapy (GST)
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.

Hypnotherapy/Hypnosis
Hypnosis can help individuals and groups stop smoking, lose weight, sleep better, and deal effectively with stress and other emotional disorders.
During a hypnosis session the client experiences a trance state which is similar to meditation. In this state the innate powers of the human mind, which are usually untapped, flow freely and enhance every area of life. Emotional blocks that a client may not even be aware of are released during a session.
The Hypnotic state is completely normal. Hypnosis is experienced everyday by every person. It happens while watching TV or driving a familiar route. It is a narrowing of attention, thereby shutting out distractions, resulting in focused awareness. It is not mysterious but rather a state that every human being can easily reach, with very few exceptions.
The conscious mind, which is the rational and analytical mind, is in a relaxed state for a time, while the subconscious mind, which holds all emotions, memories and creativity, is more fully accessed to provide resources not usually available.

The aloe vera in the solution will moisturize, tone, and tighten the skin. No shower is needed after the wrap.
How is the wrap applied? A gelled solution is applied directly to the skin and a layer of plastic film is wrapped over the body to keep it moist to the skin. The client then will lounge for 45 minutes in the wrap. No sweating just penetration of the solution.
