Stress Relief & Trauma Release
Life can be hard sometimes. Both stress or traumatic experiences can wreak havoc on our nervous system and affect our mental and emotional wellness. It slows down the brainwaves into a Theta or Delta state, both of which induce feelings of deep relaxation and promote feelings of peace, calmness, and serenity. The act of relaxation helps disrupt the pathway of flight, fight or freeze, and allows your brain to calmly respond to a stressor rather than react to it. In essence, relaxation massage helps reduce the levels of the stress hormone cortisol while boosting the feel-good hormones serotonin and dopamine. This release of hormones is what creates that sense of relief and feeling of being able to breathe again. Like a cool glass of water on a hot day...refreshing, relieving, and reviving. Pain Management
Pain keeps us from enjoying all the little things in life... but it doesn't have to. Massage naturally releases endorphins for pain relief. Whether you experience pain from an old injury, new injury, or no injury, massage therapy can help manage and/or alleviate your pain and get you back to enjoying the activities you love. Massage for pain relief are often client directed sessions. Posture Rehabilitation
