About Shiatsu
Shiatsu is Japanese bodywork whose framework is based on the energy channels of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The word ‘shiatsu’ means ‘finger pressure’. Shiatsu is done by applying variable pressure to the acupressure points along the channels using combinations of fingers, thumbs, palms, elbows. Stretching and joint mobilization can also be incorporated. These actions both disperse energy blocks and strengthen the Qi, stimulating the healing force of the body and restoring balance and harmony.
“If anything is Sacred, the Human Body is Sacred. ”
About TUI NA

“Relax your Body, and the rest of you will Lighten.”

“The ancient Indian holy men understood what modern science has since proven: that the entire cosmos is “an ocean of vibration,” the source of all manifestation.”
“The goal of sound healing is that every moment of our life and every action be in harmony with the Universal Energy Field.”
About Sound Healing
Sound healing is a fundamental form of healing. Science recognizes that the Universe is a field of vibration. Everything vibrates. Health is the result of being in harmony at the cellular level. When dissonance occurs, balance is lost. Using sound and vibration, we can recover and be restored to experiencing harmony and connection to the internal and external environments of our lives.
Sound healing stimulates the production of nitric oxide setting off a cascade of physiological events that include:
Enhanced cell vitality, vascular flow, and heart healing
A stronger immune system and increased ability to prevent and fight infections
More resistance to stress and greater levels of energy and stamina
Sharper mental clarity and diminished states of depression due to the balancing of the autonomic nervous system
Improved digestion and natural cleansing
