Pregnancy Massage
Prenatal Massage Therapy is designed to help address the stresses applied to the female body when carrying a baby. It specifically targets the lower back, hips and glute muscles, as well as the legs and feet. It can help reduce joint pain from weight gain and postural imbalance, provide relief from digestive discomfort, improve circulation, and provide a deeper sense of relaxation and reduced anxiety. It promotes a feeling of being at ease and in touch with yourself and your baby. After giving birth, continuing treatment with Postpartum Recovery can help ease abdominal pain from labor, reduce the strain from infant care and support breastfeeding. During the massage, clients are supported by a cushioning system in side-lying and/or a semi-reclining position. Techniques called deep tissue sculpting are used with lighter pressure to foster relaxation and stress management while a deeper touch for therapeutic pain relief and re-balancing may be used. Michael is certified in Prenatal, Perinatal, Labor and Postpartum Massage by the foremost pregnancy massage instructor in the country, Carol Osborne.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST)
CranioSacral Therapy or massage, works with the cranio-sacral system, which includes the bones in your spine and head as well as the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord. Stress can cause imbalance in the cranio-sacral system, resulting in headaches, migraines, chronic fatigue, jaw problems, or emotional difficulties. In order to re-balance this system, the therapist cradles your neck, shoulders and head to tune into and manipulate the pulse of the fluid. Tiny adjustments to the bones position are made, allowing the body to naturally heal and come into a renewed place of homeostasis.

Reiki
Reiki is a natural therapy that gently balances universal life energy and brings health and well being to the recipient. It promotes well-being by balancing the body, mind, and spirit by reducing stress and promoting relaxation, which triggers the body’s natural healing. During a Reiki treatment the client rests fully-clothed on the massage table while the practitioner places their hands on key locations on the client’s body. The client will experience deep relaxation and may feel pleasant warmth, tingling or cooling sensations under the practitioner’s hands. While Reiki is useful for any condition, it is often sought by cancer patients and their loved ones, those healing from injuries, patients both before and after surgery, and people who are physically or emotionally exhausted.
