I am a Clinical Massage and Myofascial Release Therapist as well as a Traditional Thai Bodyworker. The movement therapists at The Body School are passionate about health and healthy movement. We believe that pain-free joyful movement is part of our human potential and we would love nothing more than to help you achieve it. If you would like to book a session with me using your health insurance or workers comp. insurance you may call The Body School at 907-987-5997. For insurance you will need a doctors note. You will then be scheduled with me for a 60 or 90 minute massage. I also specialize in corrective exercises using advanced Pilates equipment.
Massage
Smooth stones are heated and then lubricated with herbal infused essential oils. The rich grounding movements the therapist will use combined with the heat of the river rock will release deep tension and calm the vagus nerve. Used as an extension of the therapist’s hands, the use of massage stones induces deep relaxation and provides a unique experience many find to be tremendously calming and centering.
Lymphatic Drainage
Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a type of gentle massage which is intended to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart.
