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.

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.
Michelle Langer, LMT is our certified Thai practitioner. She has
attended many workshops and continues to study this massage art
form with great passion.
