Craniosacral Introductory Session

Craniosacral Treatment (CST) is a gentle hands-on technique to examine membranes and movement of the fluids in and around the central nervous system. Relieving tension in the central nervous system promotes a feeling of well-being by eliminating pain and boosting health and immunity. CST provides relief from a variety of symptoms including headaches, neck pain, side effects of cancer treatments, anxiety, chronic pain, trauma (includes, birth, childhood injuries, repetitive motion injuries, car accidents, falling accidents, injuries, and stress related events), PTSD, stress tension-related disorders, scoliosis, central nervous system disorders, orthopedic problems, among many others. The focus of CST is a gentle placement of hands to assist release of the body's connective tissue, or fascia. Fascia (Latin word for "band") is a covering found throughout the body including organs, glands, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, brain and spinal cord. This covering forms a body-wide connective network. The human body is interconnected, a synergistic whole. As such, our bodies should be treated as a whole and not as individual systems. CST organizes the human body. CST empowers the body to create balance and brings sustainability and strength to one's health. What can I expect from a CST session? The treatment begins with a detailed consultation to identify troubled areas and a picture will be taken. Low lighting and possible soft music will be used to increase your state of relaxation.

Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork

Therapeutic massage is a specialty massage that includes a variety of massage modalities, to include Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Thai Massage and Reiki. Swedish Massage is the most common type of massage. This form of massage uses long smooth strokes, kneading, and circular movement on superficial layers of muscle. Swedish massage therapy can be very gentle and relaxing. Note: If you've never had a massage before, this is a good one to try first. Deep tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. Slower strokes or friction techniques are used across the grain of the muscle. Deep tissue massage is used for chronically tight or painful muscles, repetitive strain, postural problems, or recovery from injury.

About me

I strive to eliminate stress, tension, aches/pains, and improve one's overall well-being by providing a customized massage. I will conduct a thorough assessment in order to complete an individualized treatment plan. In doing so, I am able to provide a wide range of massage techniques tailored to your treatment plan, to include, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Thai Massage, Ashiatsu Massage, Kinesio Tapping and/or Reiki energy healing. Further, I will assist in improving your quality of life through physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual rejuvenation. In conclusion, my intent is to help nurture the connection of body, mind, and spirit for a complete serene experience.

My passion for massage and bodywork began four years ago while attending El Paso Community College. However, my schooling was just the tip of the iceberg and my education has broadened since then. I received my license in January 2018. I am now certified as a Reiki Master Teacher/Practitioner, an Ashiatsu Barefoot Massage Therapist, a Thai Massage Therapist and in Kinesiology Therapeutic Taping. I, also, plan to learn and become certified in Ashi-Thai.

Although my education has been a bit broad; my goals have always remained the same, I want to help "heal!" My education will continue but in the meantime, my goals are to knead, stretch, bend, feel, press, manipulate muscles/soft tissue, work through knots, tight bands, and allow my education to lead me through helping heal each and everyone I encounter. So if you have a knot, tight band, pain, ache, referred pain, energy blockage, etc..., then I'd LOVE to help you heal.
