Myofascial Release

Our bodies, muscles and tendons are all wrapped in connective tissue – this modality helps to release the disruptive connective tissue patterns of the body by kneading and stretching the tissue with slow sustained pressure. Please call to schedule this specific modality.

Reflexology

Based on the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body; stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way, and serve as a preventive maintenance. This session involves specific techniques applied to the hands and feet. Please call to schedule this specific modality.

Lymphatic Drainage

THIS IS NOT MASSAGE. Lymphatic drainage incorporates a light, slow moving technique that follows specific patterns of lymph movement in the body to help restore proper lymph flow. This technique is very gentle, and involves time for the body to physically process the fluid being moved: in a full Lymphatic Drainage only session, there will be time that your body is resting/processing, and the Massage Therapist is not touching you. Please call to schedule this specific modality.

Lomi Lomi

This is an ancient style of bodywork that originates from the Hawaiian islands. It involves a combination of working deeply with the anatomic map of the body as well as the energy field of an individual. Lomi Lomi seeks to treat the mind, body, and spirit and is conducted with prayers, intention, and attention.  It includes a wide variety of tools; range of motion, deep tissue techniques, working the joints and tendons of their associated muscle attachments, as well as smooth, sweeping forearm strokes which are intended to mimic the flow of ocean waves. The nervous system is encouraged to slow down through the use of figure eight motions that activate both hemispheres of the brain; energy is then able to flow, thus creating a space for the techniques to be received rather than pushing through a blockage in muscle tissue.  Draping for this technique will differ from a Swedish routine, but can absolutely be modified for your comfort level. The essence of Lomi Lomi is love and “Aloha.” The intention of this modality is to establish wholeness and heal the world one individual at a time. Currently NOT provided at Eagles Nest.

Medical Massage

This is a 60 minute session that includes assessments, treatment and recommendations. This is bodywork that uses a broader set of techniques for muscle health and recovery that will differ from client to client.

Clients should wear loose fitting and comfortable clothing for these sessions. Please call to schedule this specific modality.

Shiatsu
