| Massage Therapy I specialize in Deep Tissue and Lomilomi massage, and am licensed in Hawaii (MAT 5771) and Oregon, as well as nationally certified (NCTMB). I was the Program Director for the Massage Program at Pioneer Pacific College, in Oregon--I created the curriculum and taught all of the courses, from hands-on massage to kinesiology and anatomy. The following list outlines my massage/anatomy teaching experience:
In addition I teach lomilomi massage on a regular basis. 1 hr: $80 |
Aquatic Bodywork I offer aquatic bodywork sessions as an internationally certified watsu practitioner. Sessions are dependant on weather and the availability of a location with warm water. 1.5 hr sessions are $150. Aquatic Bodywork provides all of the benefits of massage and extends them further. The warm water softens all of the soft tissues at once, reducing pain and allowing for safer, more effective stretches (impossible or impractical on a table), while the hydrostatic pressure of the water significantly improves circulation of the blood and lymph. In sharp contrast to lying on a rigid massage table with most joints remaining motionless, floating in the water ensures that all joints, including the spine, are undulating in all three dimensions for the entire session. Psychosomatically, the weightlessness of the warm water combined with the uncommon experience of being held unconditionally can be powerfully effective for reducing stress, healing emotional traumas, and improving overall well-being. All of that, plus it just feels amazing, "like being a piece of seaweed." |
I offer both incall and outcall sessions:
