Milton Trager, M.D., a legendary pioneer (seen in adjacent photo) in the fields now known as neuroscience and somatic education, originated the Trager Approach at the age of 18 and continued refining it for the rest of his career. In the 1970s, after fifty years of defining and practicing his approach, he began teaching his volume of original insights to those in and outside of the medical profession.
Polarity Therapy is the art and science of stimulating and balancing the flow of life energy within the human being through touch. The term Polarity relates to one of the fundamental laws of nature, namely the attraction and union of opposites through a balanced middle point. The human body is an energy system like a battery or magnet.
Reflexology is a therapy based on the principle that the feet (as well as the hands, face and ears) have reflex points that correspond with specific muscle groups or organs or bones in the body. In this system, the nerve endings in the extremities provide a "map" of the rest of the body. Through the application of pressure on particular areas of the feet, reflexology is said to promote many health benefits.
The IonCleanse by AMD detox footbath system is the safest, most thorough and efficient instrument used to cleanse and purify the body. This footbath therapy uses direct current to create an electro-magnetic ionic field in which the client places his feet in a salt water solution with an array. A detoxification process occurs by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph and skin.
The K-1 Whole Body Vibration Plate is a pleasant rocking and rolling action which causes the brain to tell the muscles of your body to actively contract to maintain its equilibrium, thus creating a therapeutic and muscle toning workout. Our K-1 is a TOS (Triangular Oscillating System) which generates systematic involuntary muscle contraction, putting less stress on the joints and ligaments.

I had a significant pain issue located in the back of my left knee. I was hoping a full-body massage might help. I talked with Sandra about my issue and she worked with my knee during our session. While that didn’t relieve all the pain, it certainly helped. She also provided invaluable information about the types of food that can contribute to inflammation in the body. I followed some of her suggestions and my knee continued to improve. She has a gift for listening. That was very important to me. I haven’t ever gone to a massage therapist who really cares about your whole body and mind. Will

Sandra is very pleasant and comforting. She individualized my experience and professionally addressed all areas I needed attention on. This was my first experience with her and I am confident to say I will be returning very frequently. I feel great and totally relaxed after my session. Amazing service!

Enjoyed my first session with Sandra. After tending to my injured knee and working on my lower body I was able to walk better. The nerve tingling ceased and I was able to walk 1000 steps the next day without my cane. I signed up for the 6 week course to make all my body parts feel good again. I highly recommend Sandra.
Session # 4 was absolutely heavenly. 5 stars. I did not want it to end.

TMJ, NECK, FOREARM/ELBOW PAIN RELIEVED. I was referred to Sandra by my mom and Naturopath for a simple massage. She provides so much more; with a holistic attitude. She is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and is an excellent listener. I went to see Sandra for a simple massage for tight shoulder and neck but she went beyond that and addressed my poor chin/neck posture, tight fascia in my forearms and around my elbows which I incorrectly attributed to tendinitis, directed me to a heavy metal detox expert, regularly brings in specialist massage therapists such as the craniosacral masseuse for my

Me and My fiancé enjoyed our very first 'couples massage' with Sandra! Her place was very welcoming!! The best thing I love about Sandra was she paid so much attention to what our issues were, and made sure she was able to addressed it throughout our massage session. Sandra goes ABOVE and BEYOND to her client and we highly recommend her service!!! The sauna was an awesome addition to our appointment! <3. Thank you so much Sandra!!! We can't wait for our next appointment with you!

If you want a relaxing massage Sandra does a wonderful job but also so much more. The therapeutic massage on my knees was like nothing else that I have experienced and was very helpful in relieving my knee pain. I would highly recommend this type of massage with Sandra before going with painkillers or surgery, she knows what she is doing.

Sandra is by far the most competent and engaged massage therapist that I have ever encountered. Take time to clearly communicate your issues to her. She listens and then she goes to work. I have been under her care for 2+- years with great improvement in my neck, lower back and knees. The ancillary services that she offers (sauna, foot bath, etc.) complement the massage session.

Sandra's always interested in what is going on with your body before starting her massages. This way she can concentrate on the areas you are having problems with. She dies sever types of massage and chooses the best for you. The Vibe machine does wonders for your body as well as the Ultra Red Sauna and foot bath to release the toxins in your body. As always I walk out of there feeling so much better than when I walked in.
