For thousands of years some form of massage or laying on of the hands has been used to heal and soothe our bodies. Today, more and more health care professionals are now urging the use of regular therapeutic massage. Its medical value is well documented. At Grace Bodyworks, my unique blend of massage and bodywork techniques creates a specialized and individual treatment just for you.
I began experiencing and learning bodywork from my Grandma, Ruth. She introduced me to reflexology at the age of 15. At the time I was suffering from stomach problems and was diagnosed with an ulcer. After taking every medicine available I reluctantly tried reflexology. It was the only treatment that relieved my pain. My passion for the healing art of touch began.
I became obsessed about Exercise, Nutrition and Bodywork. I studied Acupressure, Swedish, Thai, Deep Tissue and Pregnancy massage and Structural Bodywork, techniques. I’m certified, Licensed, and Insured.
My intention is to assist people in alleviating their pain, improving sleep, reducing the effects of stress and anxiety and to bring comfort and balance in their every day lives.
You will reap the benefits of massage if it becomes a regular part of your life. My goal is for us to work together to take better care of your health, long-term.
Communication is key. I need to know what you're feeling, experiencing and what you're looking to gain in order to best help you. In turn, I will explain the treatment and what you can expect to gain from it.
Massage is a tool to help heal. Whether it's stress, illness or simply to pamper yourself, the benefits of massage can be life changing. I would be honored to take that journey with you.
Bodywork is the application of therapeutic methods of skilled touch and manipulation of the body by using specialized techniques such as massage, acupressure, stretching and alignment to balance the body and relieve pain. Bodywork may be used as an adjunct to medical treatment, or it may be prescribed as a form of physical therapy for certain conditions.
Reflexology is the therapeutic method of relieving pain by stimulating reflex points found on the feet, hands and ears. These pressure points correspond to the nervous system and affect the bodily organs and glands. It is believed to bring relaxation and healing. Several studies indicate that reflexology reduces pain and psychological symptoms, such as stress and anxiety, and enhance relaxation and sleep. Given that reflexology is also low risk, it can be a reasonable option if you're seeking relaxation and stress relief.
The goal of Swedish Massage is to melt away muscle tension and increase the blood flow to your heart. Swedish Massage is extremely therapeutic as it decreases muscle toxins, increases oxygen levels in the blood, and improves flexibility in the body.
