Reiki
Reiki is energetic medicine. This healing modality was developed in Japan the 19th century by Dr. Mikau Usui for the purpose of enlightenment, stress relief and relaxation. Reiki is based on the belief that within all of us flows a Universal Life Force Energy. When we have ample life force energy flowing within us, we are more resilient to stress and feel a sense of calm and joy. Reiki uses the "laying on of hands" to subtly and safely heal energetic blockages, allowing you to restore vibrancy to your energetic system. Please note: reiki sessions are not typically covered by extended health insurance.

Holistic Skincare
Holistic Skincare refers to an approach that considers the overall well-being of an individual, focusing on the integration of physical, mental, and emotional aspects of health to achieve optimal skin condition. Instead of solely addressing surface-level skin concerns, holistic skincare takes into account various factors that can influence the skin's health, such as lifestyle, nutrition, stress levels, and environmental factors.

Manual Lymph Drainage
A gentle, rhythmic massage technique which can help improve healing by bringing fresh oxygen and nutrients to an area and removing harmful substances, scar tissue, and pain-causing chemicals. This type of massage works by stretching the skin towards lymph flow. It is gentle enough to be used immediately after an injury or surgery.
