Acupressure has its roots grounded in one of the oldest healing arts, first recorded in 712 A.D. in what is known in Japan as The Record of Ancient Things. Acupuncture, Shiatsu, and many other energy healing arts are derived from similar roots. Most often practiced in the home, this art was passed down from generation to generation, families using simple everyday treatments for themselves and others.
This gentle laying of hands on certain points of the body helps to release blockages in the body's energy flows. The body's energy system maintains the balance of the flow of life force to every cell and every function of the human experience: body, mind and spirit. When you experience a blockage, such as a sensitive or tender area, the body is seeking to protect the area made vulnerable by the blocked flow, possibly resulting in an imbalance and can eventually lead to dis-ease.
Jump start your day with a session unique to you. Changes will begin to occur immediately and continue for several days. Relax as your body seeks balance and harmony.
Sessions are done fully clothed.
Massage is though to be the oldest form of medical therapy practiced on the human body. Dating back as far as 2,700 B,C., ancient eastern cultures practiced massage to heal everything from labor pains to paralysis. The ancient Egyptian tombs have walls adorned with images of figures being massaged. Traditional Indian medicine, a 5000 year old system known as Ayurveda, teaches still today, that massage also used a variety of essential oils and spices for their healing properties.
In western culture, the most practiced form of massage is undoubtedly Swedish massage. First Introduced in the 19th century, Swedish masseuses were thought to have borrowed many of their techniques from traditional Chinese, Egyptian, Grecian, and Roman masseuses.
Some of the most effective massages incorporate a variety of other complementary therapies - acupressure, aromatherapy, reflexology, reiki, and shiatsu. Massage can be used to soothe a headache, relieve tension, relax taut and aching muscles, banish insomnia, and improve morale.

The origins of reflexology are unknown, however, it is believed that it began about the same time as acupressure, for they share the same principles. It was used by the Egyptians, and is shown by wall paintings in their tombs. In modern times Dr. William Fitzgerald laid the foundations of the science with his "zone therapy", with Eunice Ingham working from the early 1930's until her death in 1974 to develop reflexology into what it is today.
Reflexology is based on the idea that there are areas, or reflex points, on the feet, hands and ears that correspond to each organ, gland, and structure of the body. By working these reflexes, the body has a reduction in stress and tension all over the body. The main benefits of reflexology are relaxation, improved blood supply, improved nerve function, and an overall harmony to all systems of the body.

REIKI (pronounced "ray-key") is a gentle and powerful, natural hands on healing practice, with energy being directed into and through a practitioner, and out their hands into another person. Reiki is based on the idea that there is a universal (or source) energy that supports the body’s innate healing abilities. This energy is available to anyone who is willing to study and learn the art.
In its long history of use Reiki has be used to promote overall health and well-being, relieve stress, to overcome unwanted habits, to achieve desired goals and aid in healing illness and injury, working for young to old, male or female. Many Reiki practitioners have found that plants and animals also respond well to a Reiki session.
