My Therapeutic Focus and Training
Through Your Body in Harmony (YBIH), I strive to provide compassionate, respectful, and individualized care to every client, using a holistic approach to massage that combines traditional Swedish, deep tissue and myofascial release techniques with complementary healing modalities, such as breathwork, energetic healing (Reiki), and aromatherapy.
I am a graduate of Memorial Hermann Massage and Spa Therapy School and a Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of Texas, as well as a Level II Reiki practitioner. I am committed to excellence in massage and healing. It would be an honor and a privilege to serve you.
Amenities in my Montrose studio include:
-
A padded, heated massage table for your comfort and relaxation.
-
An adjustable, extra soft, fleece padded face cradle to provide support and comfort.
-
Professional massage oils, as well as my own special oil blends. All are moisturizing, odorless, hypoallergenic, and won't clog pores.
-
Soft, high-quality linens.
-
An attached bathroom with shower for use before and/or after your session.
-
Clean towels and basic toiletries (or you may bring your own).
-
Quiet music to help you tune out the rest of the world.
-
A Himalayan salt lamp and candlelight give a soft glow and encourage relaxation and healing.
-
A complimentary bottle of water after your session to help your body flush out the toxins released during your massage.
-
Essential oils (aromatherapy) available upon request.
What is a massage session with me like?
Imagine yourself in a tranquil space, away from the traffic, noise, and pressure of daily life. You are lying comfortably on a padded, heated table covered in ultra-soft linens. Muted lighting, flickering candlelight, and the gentle sounds of soft music and trickling water complete the mood and create a place for you to completely let go. As you sense the faint, pleasant aroma of scented oils and perhaps even the subtle woody smell of incense, you know that this is a place for relaxation and healing. Your breathing opens and becomes deeper; you let go a little more. You hear the sound of oil being warmed in your therapist’s hands, and as you anticipate that first healing touch, you know you are totally safe and secure.
For the remainder of your session, time slips away and you place yourself completely in skilled, capable hands. The sensations throughout your body range from soothing to intense as your muscles soften and relax and your joints open and release. Your breathing further deepens and slows and your mind drifts off to places unknown. When the session comes to an end, you feel a profound sense of peace and a more conscious connection to your body. You notice that you feel more relaxed, and some of the aches and pains you brought in with you have left, or at least have quieted down. After you leave, this peace and openness stays with you and you experience the most restful sleep you’ve had in a long time.
This is Your Body in Harmony.
