If you're new here, welcome. I am excited to launch my new website to share with you my services, the work I do, courses, workshops and different information on the body. In addition to the 'About Me' page, I would like to share what exactly is 'intuitive massage'. If you combine reiki, massage, myofascial release and emotional release, you will get to what I focus on. I believe the body is a vessel for the story of our lives and as we may or may not know, we have all experienced trauma in one form or another. Even if that trauma is an injury or physical accident, our bodies chemical and physical response is to protect ourselves. If that trauma is an emotional event, then the same thing will happen. The idea that 'children are resilient', therefore creating resilient adults, is questionable. I believe that we are able to adapt to our environments and adjust our expectations of the world around us, but our bodies and souls are sensitive. We are meant to be nourished, protected and kept safe but many, if not all of us, encountered many scary things in our lives. The chemical response in order to protect ourselves will put us in fight, flight, freeze or fawn and this can become a pattern that we embody. I have seen in my practice, different types of bodies, different sensitives and different difficulties. What I have noticed is the event + temperament = specific points of body pain. My goal is to first make the body feel safe by creating a soothing and relaxing environment, using breath to connect to body and applying firm but loving pressure on the tight spots. Depending on the service, I will usually do a full body massage concentrating on the most affected areas. If you are interested in more of this, please keep checking in on my blog posts as I will be touching on more specific chronic pains and their origins. As always, feel free to contact me with any questions or requests for bookings.
