Cranio-Sacral Therapy

Cranio-Sacral Therapy is a gentle, manual therapy used to evaluate and improve function of the craniosacral system comprised of membranes and cerebrospinal fluid surrounding and protecting the brain and spinal cord.
Practitioners use soft touch and subtle movement to ease restrictions and optimize movement of the cerebrospinal fluid. CranioSacral Therapy complements the body's natural healing process.
A 60-minute craniosacral therapy session is beneficial. It may also be combined with other therapies in a 90 or 120-minute session.

• 60 minutes: $75.00

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a gentle, manual technique for releasing restrictions between fascia and other soft tissues of the body. The goal is to diminish or eliminate pain and increase range of motion. Fascia is a network of tough connective tissue covering and connecting muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Injuries, stress, inflammation, trauma and poor posture can cause restriction to fascia. Manipulation of fascia during myofascial release allows connective tissue fibers to align in a more flexible, functional manner.

• 90 minutes: $112.50
• 120 minutes $150.00

Heated Stone Therapies

Heated smooth Lake Superior stones are used during a Deep Tissue Massage, Relaxation Massage or other service to enhance the session. This technique can aid release of tight muscles and promote a sense of calm and wellbeing. A therapist may place stationary heated stones on areas to provide deep penetrating heat or use the stones as effective massage tools. Massage using heated stones is our most frequently requested service. It is a comforting, soothing, relaxing experience we highly recommend as the ultimate in stress reduction.

• 90 minutes: $122.50
• 120 minutes: $160.00

Relaxation Massage

A full body Relaxation Massage usually includes: scalp, face, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, back, hips, legs and feet. Clients will have an opportunity to choose areas they wish to include in their session. A 60-minute Relaxation Massage is a general full body session with little or no focus on specific areas. The primary intention is to create a quiet mini-retreat to relax muscles, soothe the spirit and allow recipients to gather their thoughts and get in touch with the present moment. If a client wishes to add focused work on specific areas in addition to their full body massage, a 90 or 120-minute session is recommended. A relaxation session may be enhanced with the use of heated stones or choice of aromas.

• 60 minutes: $75.00
• 90 minutes: $112.50

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage is a method using focused, slow-paced pressure to effect deeper layers of soft tissue. The session is not a general full body session; but a session in which the therapist directs attention to specific areas you have helped identify. Optimal pressure is determined by client preference and therapist skill, experience and judgement. Deep Tissue Massage may be combined with other services listed in this brochure. A frequently requested combination is Deep Tissue Massage using heated stones combined with a Relaxation Massage.
