I am a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner as well as an Institute of Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner. I believe it is important to determine the "root cause" of symptoms and dis-ease in the body, in an effort to appropriately allow for healing to occur, in whatever fashion that may be. I appreciate that this may incorporate a combination of traditional medicine with alternative medicine. I am a student in Massage Therapy as well as Foot Reflexology. I am a Usui Reiki Master/Teacher. I enjoy learning about different methods of healing the body and utilize an integrated approach with my clients.
Massage Therapy
Can include Swedish massage techniques, but also myofascial release, trigger point therapy, neuromuscular techniques, passive stretching of muscles. Benefits include improving circulation, relieving muscle tension, reduction or relief of painful areas, increase in flexibility, reduction of inflammation, promoting relaxation. Can add hot stones, cupping, aromatherapy.
Reflexology
Foot Reflexology is a type of therapy that involves applying gentle pressure to specific points along the feet in an effort to promote healing to parts of the body stimulated by the corresponding zone or reflexology point on the foot. It can assist with increasing energy, increasing circulation, detoxification of the body, reducing inflammation and stress relief.
