Kripalu yoga

Kripalu yoga is gentle yoga practice using a compassionate approach. Meditation, training & strengthening the body with postures and transformative spirituality not only serves the student while on the yoga mat, but transfers to daily life.

In a Kripalu class, each student learns to find their own level of practice on a given day by looking inward. Over time, students are taught to observe their thoughts without judgement and to accept and love themselves as they are.

Restorative Yoga

A restorative yoga sequence typically involves only five or six poses, supported by props such as blankets, bolsters & pillows that allow you to completely relax and rest. Held for 5 minutes or more, restorative poses include light twists, seated forward folds, and gentle backbends.

It is designed to initiate the parasympathetic nervous system (the rest-and-digest nervous system). In this deep state of relaxation, the body rests, heals and balances emotions from the effects of chronic stress  Check the schedule for upcoming offerings.

Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra translates to Yoga Sleep and is a deep relaxation practice that helps soften the physical and emotional bodies so that healing and wellness can occur. The conscious mind subsides but awareness remains. It is said that one hour of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to 4 hours of regular sleep. This is a stand-alone practice or is often integrated into a Restorative Yoga class.

Massage 

60, 75,  90 and 120 minute treatments available

($120, $145, $170 and $240, respectively)

Thai Massage

During a Thai massage with me you can expect to be pressed, pulled, and stretched in ways that are unlike anything you’ve experienced in a traditional table massage.  In fact, there is no table involved.

The goal of Thai Massage is to relax and rejuvenate the receiver by treating the whole body, including the energy pathways/meridians.

You needn’t be a “stretchy yoga person” to benefit from Thai massage.  Every range of flexibility can be addressed.  My aim is to meet you, and your flexibility, where you are and perhaps bring you a bit further –though, not into pain– so that your body can release its stored tension and leave you feeling more whole, complete, and like your best self!

Thai Foot Reflexology

$ 100.00 for the hour.

In addition to being a relaxing and energizing massage of the feet and lower legs, Thai Foot Reflexology delivers a form of acupressure that impacts the entire body.

During a Thai Foot Reflexology session, pressure points along energy lines are gently and methodically stimulated with a Thai reflexology stick to enhance and restore the free flow of energy. In addition to leaving you feeling rejuvenated and relaxed, the stimulation of reflex points on the feet, which are associated with internal organs, enhances overall well-being.

Thai for Two! 

$170.00 for the session.

90-minute instructional session for couples to learn Thai massage techniques to practice at home.   Group Couples Classes and Private Pair Sessions available.  A great Date Night or Anniversary experience!

Table Massage

Swedish massage therapy is the modality that comes to mind when people think of massage. One of the primary goals is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes and circular pressure in the direction of blood returning to the heart.

Cupping (add-on to table massage)

$30.00 per 75, 90 or 120 minute table massage

.Cupping loosens soft tissue and connective tissue, and helps to promote lymphatic flow and circulation. The technique also helps to remove stagnation around scarring and adhesions. The suction/negative pressure created by the cups creates a lift to the soft tissue, facilitating stretching, decompression, increased movement of fluids into tissues–creating hydration, lubrication and space.

Reiki

$120.00 for 60 minutes.

Reiki energy is added to each touch-oriented session, or you may also receive it as a single modality. Reiki is believed to help to reduce stress, relieve pain, and balance emotions. Reiki’s hands-on approach addresses underlying energetic patterns to create vitality and healing within the body’s own ability.
