Californian Massage
This is a technique that is steadily growing in North America and Europe. It is a touch that is appreciated by people who are looking for effective and long-lasting relief of tension, especially a rebalancing of the whole system, through deep relaxation. In fact, it is the perfect anti-stress massage! Strokes of varying rhythm and depth are employed directly on the skin with the application of oil. Californian massage is known for its long enveloping and fluid movements. Given in a spirit of profound respect for the integrity of the individual, for many receiving a Californian massage is like being offered a healing oasis.
CranioSacral Therapy and Somato-Emotional Release
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the functioning of a physiological body system called the craniosacral system - comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. Using a soft touch generally no greater than 5 grams, or about the weight of a nickel, practitioners release restrictions in the craniosacral system, which has been shown to improve the functioning of the central nervous system, as well as many other systems of the body, such as digestive, musculoskeletal, respiratory, circulatory, and more. CST has also been shown to help with the physical components related to such somatic conditions as Post Traumatic Stress, depression and anxiety.
By facilitating the body's natural and innate healing processes, CST is increasingly used as a preventive health measure for its ability to bolster resistance to disease, and is effective for helping people with a wide range of healthcare challenges associated with pain and dysfunction, including: Migraine headaches, Chronic neck and back pain, Motor-cordination impairments, Autism, Central nervous system disorders, Traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, Scoliosis, Learning disabilities, Chronic fatigue, Emotional difficulties, Stress and tension related problems, Fybromalgia and other connective tissue disorders, TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Syndrom), Orthopedic problems, Neurovascular or Immune disorders, Post traumatic stress disorders, Post surgical dysfunction, etc...

Jin Shin Do Acupressure
This method uses gentle yet deep finger pressure on specific acu-points together with body-focusing techniques to help release armoring or chronic tension and balance the Qi or energy. Jin Shin Do means "the way of the compassionate spirit" and is a unique synthesis of traditional Japanese acupressure techniques, classic Chinese acupressure theory, Reichian Segmental theory and Taoist philosophy. This therapy outlines tension points associated with common physical problems and with distressing feelings like anxiety, depression, guilt and anger. It helps one to transform rather than repress painful feelings leading to a more joyful way of life and the realization of one's full potential.
