- Lymphatic Drainage:
-
-
Specific techniques are applied to promote circulation of the lymphatic fluids and increase immune system function. This is especially useful in draining stagnant areas, edema or chronic swelling and reducing the pain that accompanies many medical conditions. PMS cramps and bloating are greatly reduced with lymph drainage. Both allergy and chronic sinus sufferers will find relief with a series of lymph drainage sessions. These techniques are also helpful in draining the breast lymph nodes to increase the health and immunity of the breasts and, in some cases, may reduce breast cysts. Lymph drainage for the legs can reduce or help prevent varicose veins, spider veins and cellulite. Pregnant women and diabetics can reduce swelling and pain in the feet. Many insurance companies cover this treatment. We will forward information to your doctor or insurance company on the benefits of Lymphatic Drainage.

Zero Balancing:
- Zero Balancing (ZB) is a simple yet powerful bodywork system that aligns mind and body using touch and movement to address the deepest structures of the body: the connective tissue, bones and joints. Developed by Osteopath and acupuncturist Fritz Smith in 1973, Zero Balancing combines Western scientific approaches with Eastern concepts of energy and healing.
ZB uses gentle pulling, lifting and manual pressure to help free energy flow in the body and create a sense of wellbeing and balance. By reaching the deepest layers of held tension, the firm comfortable touch of Zero Balancing simultaneously quiets the mind and relaxes the body. Balance between the energies of the body and the physical structures enhances health, assists in recovery from injury, and creates a deep sense of stability. So important in these changing times!
Zero Balancing sessions are given with the client fully clothed, first seated, then lying on his or her back on the massage table. ZB focuses on the whole person while addressing an individual’s specific needs. With better balance in the body/mind a foundation for true health and happiness can be established. Zero Balancing helps create this balanced state.
Our Zero Balancing Therapist is Verilee Herpich, RN, LMT. Verilee is not only a very experienced Therapist but she is also a Zero Balancing Instructor in the Northeast USA.

CranioSacral Therapy:
- CST is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord.
- Using a soft touch, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system to improve the functioning of the central nervous system. By complementing the body's natural healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for a wide range of medical problems associated with pain and dysfunction, including: Migraine Headaches, Chronic Neck and Back Pain, Motor-Coordination Impairments, Central Nervous System Disorders, Traumatic Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries, Scoliosis, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia and other Connective-Tissue Disorders, Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome (TMJ), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Post-Surgical Dysfunction and Stress and Tension-Related Problems.

Traditional Thai Massage:
Traditional Thai massage (Nuad Bo Rarn) is a great way to loosen the tightest areas of the body as the therapist stretches and moves the body into yoga-like postures. For this reason it is often called “lazy man’s yoga” as the therapist uses her body to twist, press and stretch the client. This fabulous work is effective for relieving muscular tension, increasing range of motion and flexibility and can be done on anyone regardless of age or flexibility. The benefits of Thai massage can include, but are not limited to, the reduction of back pain, headaches and neck
pain as well as reducing stress and anxiety.This ancient form of body work, unlike other massage modalities, is performed on a mat on the floor. The client is dressed in loose, comfortable clothes and relaxes as the therapist works. It can be expected that the therapist will use her hands, feet, elbows and counter weight with the client during the session. The massage is rhythmic and a deep relaxation generally occurs as the body and mind settle and become quiet. Many people say that this work leaves them with a sense of feeling recharged physically, spiritually and energetically for many days following a session.
