Why Massage?
Regular massage sessions serve to 'educate' the body at a cellular level. They enable the body’s energy pathways to flow more thoroughly and efficiently. The result is that our bodies change through slower breathing, more relaxed muscles, and a healthier immune system. Gradually, our bodies learn to live in a more natural state of balance and harmony.
Reducing Stress
We know that stress underlies 75% - 80% of diseases, and that its management and reduction is critical for anyone wanting to enjoy a long, quality life.
Identifying the causes of our stress is helpful information for us to make changes. These causes most often include overwork, ‘powering through’, inadequate sleep, over-exercising, illness, poor nutrition, and overwhelming responsibilities. Other causes may be less obvious to us. They include our negative thoughts, feelings, or attitudes.
Symptoms become more difficult to ignore as we age. It can take months, even years, for chronic symptoms to show up, and it can take months or years to reduce, or eliminate them. Massage teaches us to feel the difference between being stressed and being relaxed. This awareness helps us to stop our stress before it stops us. .

Tui Na Bodywork
Tui Na is based on the ancient knowledge and practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine; it is the oldest (over 3,000 years) known system of bodywork and physical therapy in the world.
Tui Na has been used to treat injuries, joint and muscle problems, as well as internal disorders. Techniques to apply pressure can use hands, arms, elbows, or knees, and can be rigorous or gentle. Large and small muscle groups are stretched and palpated allowing them to relax and return to their natural positions and functions.
The intention of Tui Na is to increase the flow of Qi (body energy), thus reducing pain and stress while promoting healing. This work also increases the circulation of blood to nourish the cells, as well as, facilitate the movement of lymph throughout the body to defend the body against pathogens.
The person receiving Tui Na bodywork typically wears soft, comfortable clothing to allow for maximum movement and stretching. This movement is the key to renewing and balancing energy (chi) which can best be appreciated through experiencing.
Tui Na bodywork taps into over 800 acupressure points that follow along the 12 energy pathways called "meridians" which run through the entire body. It involves slower movement to reach deeper muscle layers. It addresses chronic stress and symptoms which result in backache, tight shoulders, sciatica, and hip issues. Reaching deep muscle layers can often reduce chronic pain without drugs.
Tui Na is both pleasurable and beneficial as we feel ourselves become calmer, more balanced, and more present in body, mind and soul.
