Natural Healing
I am trained in the healing arts of acupressure, herbal remedies and the application of ayurvedic oils.
These practices have been in use around the world for centuries...
... and I apply the Ayurvedic tenet that regards physical existence, mental existence, and personality as a unit, with each element being able to influence the others. I make recommendations based on a personal consultation.
Acupressure
How does it work? What does it do? Do I need more than one session? Can acupressure help me?
Free your Qi!
Acupressure is an ancient alternative medicine technique. It is based on the concept of life energy, or Qi, (pronounced “chi”) which flows through “meridians” in the body. The blockage of an energy field can prevent healing. In treatment, physical pressure is applied to pressure points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians. Pressure is applied by the hands without the use of oils or lotions to stimulate the body’s natural self-curative abilities. Similar to reflexology, my technique incorporates a system of zones and reflex areas that reflect an image of the body on the feet and hands. I apply pressure with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques based on your specific issue. Acupressure sessions: $100.00/hr. Package pricing available.
Herbal Remedies
Many common herbs and spices have multiple benefits you may never have been aware of!
Beneficial Botanicals
Using herbs and spices that have disease-preventive effects is one of the best ways to take advantage of their healing power. Symptoms such as coughing, upset stomach, chest congestion, fever, headache, asthma, constipation, joint pain, inflammation and bloating can be allieviated with specific herbal combinations. They are administered as tablets, capsules, powders, teas, extracts, and fresh or dried plants. Pricing determined according to treatment.
Healing Oils
Therapeutic application of plant essential oils (usually diluted in some type of solution).
They do more than just smell good
Essential oils can help you relax or sleep, or improve your skin or digestion — their benefits go well beyond a pleasant smell. I can help you choose the oil that will help your specific needs. Pricing based on assessment at consultation.
