Hot Stone Massage
Metamorphic stones that have been sitting at the bottom of
the ocean for millions of years are used to enhance a nurturing
head-to-toe massage. Heated stones glide over muscles providing deeper
penetration, allowing stress and tension to melt away. Warm stones are
placed on specific energy centers to deeply ground and relax you into
bliss.
Swedish Massage
This deeply relaxing massage improves
circulation and helps to relieve muscle and joint pain and tension.
Swedish massage helps the recipient obtain a feeling of connectedness and
helps reduce emotional and physical stress. It is often recommended as
part of a regular program for stress management.
Deep Tissue
Especially beneficial for the physically active
individual, this treatment provides a deep and strong massage to alleviate
tightness and strain.
Hands-On Healing
An ancient method of healing which uses
energy drawn from a higher source. Hands on Healing is a very gentle, yet
powerful method of encouraging physical, emotional and spiritual well
being.
Chakra Sound Balancing
In addition to any of the other styles of
massage, Anne will guide you through the chakras within you using the
healing power of sound to balance the energy centers while you imagine
their colors, elements and tune into their energetic gifts.
Aromatherapy
Nurturing and aromatic massage using therapeutic-grade essential oils of
herbs, botanicals and plant extracts blended for your individual needs.
Thai Massage
Using hands, feet, knees and elbows, pressure is applied to important points along the energy lines in combination with assisted yoga stretches.
An invigorating treatment that restores balance and energizes the body.
