Reiki
Reiki is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan in the early 20th century. The term "Reiki" is derived from the Japanese words "Rei," meaning "universal," and "Ki," meaning "life energy." This practice involves the channeling of healing energy through the hands of a practitioner to the recipient, aiming to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Reiki helps to balance the body’s energy field and energy centers. These centers are called chakras. They lovingly take in, incorporate and send energy to all of our organs and through out our body. Reiki is used to treat people as a whole, animals and plants. It addresses the person’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual body. It promotes harmony and balance, can help the body cleanse itself of toxins and can aid the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Reiki treatments can be done in person or as an absentee treatment. Absentee Reiki treatment, also known as distance Reiki or remote Reiki, is a method where Reiki energy is sent to a person, place, or situation without the practitioner and the recipient being physically present together. This practice is based on the belief that energy is not limited by distance or time and can be transmitted regardless of the physical location of the recipient. During a distance Reiki session, the practitioner may use visualizations, symbols, and other methods to send Reiki energy. They might picture the recipient in their mind, use a photo, or employ a surrogate object to represent the person receiving the treatment. Absentee Reiki treatment is widely practiced and valued for its flexibility and the belief that it can provide effective healing benefits regardless of physical distance. Reiki sessions often incorporate crystal healing.
Cranial Sacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a hands-on light touch approach to treating the body. The CranioSacral system is made up of the protective layers of connective tissue and the cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the central nervous system. Using a gentle touch, no more than the weight of a nickel, we can evaluate and identify tension patterns deep in the body. CST techniques are used to release these tension patterns and enhance the body’s unique and inherent ability to heal itself. CST helps to decrease the sympathetic “fight or flight” dominant state that most of us live in today, so that it is balanced with our parasympathetic “rest and digest” system. CST decreases tension, alleviates pain and can improve all functions of the human body, and mind-body connection. CST can be beneficial for a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, migraines, TMJ dysfunction, fibromyalgia, stress-related disorders, and issues related to trauma. Craniosacral therapy is typically experienced as very gentle and non-invasive, making it suitable for a wide range of people, including those who may be sensitive to more aggressive forms of bodywork. It’s important for clients to communicate any sensations they experience, as this feedback can help guide the session and ensure that the treatment is as effective and comfortable as possible.
Crystal Healing
Crystal Healing is a holistic and alternative therapy that involves using crystals and gemstones to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Practitioners of crystal healing believe that these stones can interact with the body's energy field, or chakra system, to balance and align energies, facilitating healing and well-being. Crystals are often used to align and balance the chakras, which are considered energy centers in the body. Each chakra is associated with specific physical, emotional, and spiritual functions, and different crystals are used to target and balance these chakras.
BioSynchronistics
BioSynchronistics is a form of manual physical therapy that integrates various techniques to address common musculoskeletal conditions experienced by both athletes and non-athletes alike. It employs a therapeutic approach in which gentle hands-on pressure is applied knowledgeably in a scientifically coordinated way to bring your body into balance. It draws on traditional physical therapy techniques and is enhanced with a holistic approach based on both the force of gravity and the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. BioSynchronistics® recognizes the impact of modern life on the body, such as prolonged sitting, repetitive motions, and even emotional stress, which can contribute to misalignment and altered biomechanics. This misalignment can shift your center of gravity from its optimal position, leading to unwanted sensations like tightness, strain, pain, and limitations in daily activities. BioSynchronistics aims to restore your body’s natural balance and alleviate these discomforts, promoting overall well-being and improved function.
Lymphatic Drainage and Myofascial Release
Lymphatic Drainage -LDT, or Lymph Drainage Therapy, is a specialized form of manual therapy focused on the lymphatic system. This technique was developed and refined by Dr. Bruno Chikly, a French osteopath and medical doctor. The therapy aims to stimulate the lymphatic system to enhance its function, which is crucial for immune response, detoxification, and maintaining fluid balance in the body. LDT involves gentle, rhythmic hand movements that encourage the flow of lymphatic fluid through the body's lymphatic vessels and nodes. The techniques are applied with light pressure, following the natural pathways of the lymphatic system. LDT can be used to address a variety of conditions including but not limited to chronic pain, inflammation, immune system disorders, and general detoxification. It also supports overall wellness and relaxation.
Myofascial Release (MFR) is a hands-on technique that involves applying gentle sustained pressure into the Myofascial connective tissues of the body. It is believed that the connective tissue can become restricted due to surgical procedures, stress, trauma, poor posture or an inflammatory process. If left untreated, fascial restrictions can cause a variety of symptoms that can inhibit our daily activities.
