What is Reiki?
Simply, it is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy.
​
Everybody experiences a Reiki treatment differently, but often a treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.
As for what you may feel, sometimes clients feel heat or coolness, tingling, vibration, buzzing, itchiness, sleepiness, euphoria, or nothing at all. The more Reiki treatments you receive, the more aware you will become of the Reiki energy. It is almost always certain that you will feel comfort, peace, and love during a treatment. For those who may not experience any particular feeling, or very little, as time passes, hours after the treatment, you may become aware of differences in how you feel. For instance, pain may subside slowly and you may feel surprise at the loss of pain, or you may feel energized. The client may slowly sit up and stand when ready. Since Reiki releases toxins, it is always recommended to drink plenty of water over the next several hours.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use.

If you have not tried an Ayurvedic Balance Ritual & Sole Revival Thai Foot Therapy you need to book a session! The Dosha balance is a beautiful massage done with warmed oils infused with an Ayurveda blend essential oil that helps balance the Dosha. The massage is done on the back, neck, shoulders and legs. After the massage I complete a Thai foot massage. Unlike Reflexology, the Thai foot massage is done using warmed oils and a crystal. This technique hits all the reflex and pressure points that still allow you to detox and have the same great effect and benefit as a regular reflexology treatment. This treatment is 90 mins in length
If this treatment sounds divine and just what you need to help you de stress and bring your mind and body back into alignment, book your session today by DM me for availability ❀️

Reflexology is a traditional Chinese medicine treatment done on the feet where pressure points and reflexes are stimulated to bring the body back to a healing state. I begin each treatment with a beautiful foot soak in epsom salts and add herbs then your foot is rubbed. Pressure is applied during the treatment. Following the session a beautiful relaxing massage of the feet and lower legs is included.
The session is 60 min in length.
If this treatment sounds divine and just what you need to help you de stress and bring your mind and body back into alignment then book you session today πŸ’•

Manual osteopathy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure and its function. Osteopathic practitioners use skilled manual techniques to assess and support the mobility of muscles, joints, fascia, ligaments, nerves, and circulation with the goal of helping the body function more efficiently and encouraging its natural ability to self-regulate and heal.

Rather than only treating symptoms, osteopathy looks at the body as an interconnected whole. Restrictions or imbalance in one area can influence pain, tension, posture, movement, digestion, breathing, stress responses, and overall wellbeing elsewhere in the body.

Treatment may include:

* Gentle joint mobilization
* Soft tissue and fascial release
* Cranial and fluid-based techniques
* Stretching and muscle energy techniques
* Postural and movement assessment
* Relaxation-focused therapeutic touch

Many people find osteopathic treatment deeply calming while also beneficial for improving mobility, reducing tension, and restoring balance within the body.

Conditions and concerns that may be suitable to seek osteopathic treatment for include:

* Neck and back pain
* Shoulder, hip, and joint discomfort
* Muscle tension and stiffness
* Headaches and migraines
* Sciatica and nerve irritation
* Postural strain and repetitive stress injuries
* Arthritis-related discomfort
* Sports or activity-related strain
* TMJ/jaw tension
* Pregnancy-related discomfort
* Stress and tension-related symptoms
* Fatigue and general body tension
* Digestive discomfort related to tension patterns
* Recovery support following injury
* Mobility concerns in aging adults
* Growing pains and postural issues in children

Manual osteopathy may also support relaxation, nervous system regulation, and a greater sense of body awareness and balance.

Treatment is individualized, and practitioners work within their scope of practice to determine whether osteopathic care is appropriate or whether referral to another healthcare provider is recommended. Osteopathy is not a replacement for emergency or medical care when those are required.
