Who Benefits From Regular Massage Therapy?
Everyone receives benefits from massage therapy. If you have never experienced a professional massage you should step outside of your own self and try something new. There is no better way of changing old thinking and old habits than to try something new, and the experience of massage will help change you forever. If you have received professional bodywork in the past you know it is not just something you can do when on vacation at some far off resort. Day after day we subject our bodys to strain and tension from sitting too long to over exercising our muscles (See AMTET ). Working too much can cause physical and mental strain. Massage works to reduce this tension and moves us closer to being balanced. Your massage appointment is "time out" for YOU. Massage can help with depression and anxiety too! Massage is your escape from the "stuff" in life that brings you down. It places you in a better physical, emotional and mental position to meet life and all it's challenges. The calm that massage creates may be the highlight of your week. In addition to these benefits, massage and bodywork can help with specific pains, injuries and chronic conditions. More than half of the clients I see suffer from chronic stress and problems with their posture and vertebral alignment. The rest of my clients have specific joint issues, muscular issues or just need a break and everyone can benefit from my Rain Drop massage technique developed by Gary Young - Not just an aromatherapy treatment! 
Swedish / Relaxation Massage
Swedish massage is one of the most common and well-known massage techniques, Swedish massage is a vigorous system of treatment designed to energize the body by stimulating circulation. Swedish massage uses a combination of kneading, rolling, vibrational, percussive and tapping movements with the application of cream or oil to reduce friction on the skin. The many benefits of Swedish massage may include generalized relaxation, stress reduction, improved circulation, and reduced swelling from injury. Although Swedish massage is a very relaxing and comfortable massage it is not deep and pressure ranges from light to moderate.
Therapeutic Neuromuscular BodyworkNeuromuscular therapy can help individuals who experience biomechanical dysfunction or postural imbalances. These are often symptoms of a deeper problems. Neuromuscular Massage Therapy is used to locate and release muscle spasms, reduce or eliminate trigger points that cause referred pain, restore posture, restore flexibility, rebuild strength in injured tissues and assist venous and lymphatic flow. Athletes and sports enthusiasts get great benefits from neuromuscular bodywork. For example this bodywork can restore range-of-motion (ROM) to the shoulder-arm complex allowing for better sports performance. Perfect for avid tennis and golf players. • If you want to reduce stress and/or pain and aches or improve your range-of-motion you will need to actively participate in your therapy. By following my instructions you will be moving your body (arms, legs etc.) while I work deep to stretch your muscles and tendons. This is a very rewarding experience and my clients love it! Ask me about the results that I've had with my previous clients. 
Stress Relief with Deep Tissue Massage
This technique is the most popular treatment involving a mixture of Swedish massage therapy and neuromuscular therapy in order to address specific areas of pain and accumulated tension. The treatment involves focusing on relaxation along with gaining the benefits of releasing deep hyper contracted muscular tissue. Typically, the majority of clients have complaints of neck pain, shoulder pain, lower back pain or headaches which will be specifically addressed during this therapy session.
Chair Massage / Onsite or in office
I can relieve your tight aching muscles of the neck, shoulders and back without the need to dress down like in a table massage. 30-minutes usually does the job. Deep penetration of hypertonic muscles and trigger points are possible using this technique. I offer this service at my office and in your location. For on site corporate massage it is customary to work on as many employees as possible. This massage is a 10 to 20 minute procedure that uses acupressure massage to the muscles of the neck, shoulders, arms, hands and back. Usually performed weekly at your place of employment or at conferences, conventions and other events. Performed on-site, the client remains fully clothed seated in a specially designed massage chair while I work the upper body - head, neck, . No oils or lotions are used. The benefits are improved mental well-being, reduced stress, reduced muscular tension, reduced aches and pains, reduced hypertension, enhances mental clarity and alertness and increases creativity. The person receiving the massage sits comfortably, fully clothed, on a specially designed portable massage chair. The therapist uses a variety of massage techniques to ease tension and stress, helping the client to achieve a relaxed but alert mental state. By incorporating a regular chair massage clients find greater production through relaxation that actually energizes the body. Fatigue is eased and vitality returns. Production at work is best when your employees feel their best! Give your employees the treatment they deserve. Contact me for pricing of outcall service and booking details at (904) 422-6218

Shiatsu - Healing with Acupressure
Shiatsu uses Acupressure on specific meridians or "Energy Pathways" at specific points. Shiatsu is not unlike Acupuncture except that the practioner does not use needles. Used to balance the body and "Chi" Shiatsu can relieve physical and emotional pain. Shiatsu can be used to treat conditions of the various organs and their many symptoms. Shiatsu performed over several sessions will leave you in a healthier state. 
Traditional Thai Massage
The theoretical basis of Thai massage is the existence of the "energy body," which includes 72,000 "sen" or energy lines through which life force flows. In Thai massage we address ten main sen using compressions, pressure on specific points along these lines, and stretches to release blockages to restore the free flow of life energy. These stretches, as you will observe, benefit the body in many ways. You may think to yourself, "why, what a nice way to lengthen the hamstrings," and you would be correct, but the intent of the work is to facilitate the movement of energy. The fact that the hamstrings get a good stretch is an incidental benefit. Thai massage is a branch of Traditional Medicine of Thailand, which also includes herbal treatments, nutrition, and spiritual practices. The focus of my work is exclusively the manual manipulation that we refer to as Thai massage. At one time, Thai massage was used as a medical modality for the treatment of gallstones, liver disease, whooping cough, paralysis and even daydreaming, to name only a few. There is a specific protocol culled from the three-hour routine (I offer a 90-minute routine.) for each of the ten sen to address disorders according to the area of the body affected. With the current availability of modern medicine, few patients seek out Thai massage for the treatment of serious illness or disease, but it is a popular and valuable modality for the treatment of sore muscles, joint limitations and other soft tissue dysfunction. Many recipients seek out Thai massage for its restorative qualities, reporting increased energy and a feeling of balance and well-being. Thai massage is performed fully clothed on a nice firm mat.

Plants contain complex and powerful substances known as essential oils. These are aromatic liquids derived from shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. These distinctive components defend plants from insects, harsh environmental conditions, and disease. They are also vital for a plant to grow, live, evolve, and adapt to its surroundings. Referred to as the essence of the plant, pure essential oils not only protect the plant but also determine its aroma.
Essential oils have been used throughout time dating back to 4500 BC. From perfumes and aromatherapy to cooking and medicinal purposes, essential oils have been used in everyday life for centuries. In modern days, research shows that pure essential oils can provide similar benefits to humans and animals that they give to plants. Many oils, touted as essential oils, are derived with harsh chemicals, diluted, or copied and produced in a lab. Cheap copies bring cheap results and have the potential to be toxic. Therefore, it is imperative to take great care in choosing high-quality essential oils. Young Living offers pure, unadulterated essential oils, essential oil blends, and oil-enhanced products. At Young Living, in-house and independent laboratory testing shows that our essential oils meet high industry standards that qualify them as "therapeutic grade." This means that health professionals choose them for promoting health and wellness. For the Rain Drop therapy I use pure Young Living essential oils. Combining 9 pure essential oils in rain drop fashion to the spine and applied in a specific order and in a specific way results in "Powerful Therapeutic" effects to the body and mind. Oils used: Valor, oregano, thyme, basil, cypress, wintergreen, marjoram, peppermint, aroma seiz.
The MyoKinesthetic™ System for Pain Relief
The MyoKinesthetic™ System goes after the cause of your pain, which is the nervous system. Treatments are performed by an LMT and certified Myokinesthetic System Therapist using a treatment protocol developed by Dr. Mike Uriarte, DC. of Shawnee Mission KS. The treatments are performed without lotions or oils. The client may remain fully clothed or dressed down. This technique is an interactive massage therapy treatment which calls on the client to move muscles (move arms, legs, neck, head, feet, hands, fingers, toes etc.) in a specific way as the musles are stimulated by the therapist. This system reduces and removes pain (headaches too) in about 10-25 minutes depending on the nerve source. Myokinesthetic System Therapy is Specific and gets consistent repeatable results.

In my years of research as a Certified Personal Trainer and Licensed Massage Therapist I have discovered, and am continuing to improve on a new concept of specific SPORTS MASSAGE therapy techniques that are administered during and after strength training sessions. The results are improved muscle toning, an increase in strength and visual muscle definition improvement.
