Our approach to health at A Healing Place is based on Traditional and Classical Chinese Medicine. In addition to Shiatsu, we may also utilize external herbal applications, Moxibustion, Cupping, or Gua Sha to assist in your health and wellness, if appropriate. Cupping therapy is an ancient form of Chinese Medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction.
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by touch and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
Unlike many representations of hypnosis on television, film and live stage shows, real office-setting hypnosis is subdued, relaxing and client-centered. I don't know how many times I've been asked, "you won't make me cluck like a chicken, will you?" I assure you I will not! And even if I wanted to, I couldn't!
Massage therapy is manual manipulation of soft body tissues (muscle, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments) to enhance a person's health and well-being. There are dozens of types of massage therapy methods (also called modalities). People seek massage therapy for a variety of reasons - to reduce stress and anxiety, relax muscles, rehabilitate injuries, reduce pain, and promote overall health and wellness.
