HEALING MODALITIES
Deep Tissue Work
Therapeutic deep tissue massage is a type of massage therapy that uses deep pressure to target and manipulate the deep layers of muscles and connective tissue. This type of massage is often used to address chronic tension and pain in the body, such as those caused by muscle injuries or postural imbalances.
Neuromuscular Therapy
Neuromuscular massage therapy, or trigger point myotherapy, is a form of soft tissue massage that aims to alleviate chronic muscle and nervous system disorders and problems. It is mainly used to fix trigger points, circulation, nerve compression, postural problems and repetitive movement injuries.
Sound Healing Modalities
Sound Therapy is an amazing way to melt away tension, slow your mind and return you to a state of peace and harmony. Tuning Forks, Bowls, Drums, Gongs, Rattles and more resonate you to another dimension while entraining your body into deep relaxation.
Vibroacoustic Massage Table
A vibroacoustic massage table is a type of massage table that incorporates vibration and sound therapy into the massage experience. These sound vibrations have therapeutic benefits, such as reducing stress and tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation. Vibroacoustic massage tables also feature adjustable vibration intensity levels, allowing clients to customize their experience to their preferences.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy
PEMF therapy involves exposing the body to low-frequency electromagnetic fields that are pulsed at specific frequencies and intensities. These electromagnetic fields penetrate the body's tissues and cells, stimulating cellular activity and promoting healing processes.
Biofield Tuning
Biofield tuning is a complementary therapy that involves the use of tuning forks to balance and harmonize the body's energy field or biofield. During a biofield tuning session, the practitioner uses the tuning forks to scan the body's energy field and identify areas of congestion or blockage. They then use the tuning forks to create a vibration that resonates with the body's natural frequency, which can help to clear any blockages and restore balance to the biofield.
Essential Oils
Essential Oils such as Lavender, Peppermint, and Grapefruit can ease the feelings of stress and improve mood, while Carrier Oils such as Fractionated Coconut and Avocado are rich in nutrients that nourish the skin.

Cindy, Carlsbad, CA
Excellent. Fantastic. Professional. I want more!!!! Never had such a full experience from the sound bath to the massage table that vibrates with the calming music. I went in for a massage, but ended up getting much more with this “experience”.
