Our Shiatsu Treatment is based on the traditional ancient techniques practiced in China and Japan. This marvelous and unique treatment consists of stimulating the acupressure points on the 12 meridians that extend throughout the body. Similar to Neuromuscular Therapy, the stimulation of these points are done by using sustained digital pressure on the points or “wells of energy” in the meridians which calms and energizes the whole body bringing it into perfect balance.

Special emphasis is placed on the points that stimulate the endocrine glands and the functioning of all the internal organs which results in the complete balancing of the body’s energies or (“Qi”) thereby integrating the body, mind, emotions and spirit! A very special experience that brings overall health and vitality to you ~ you’ll feel marvelous.  A treatment not to be missed!

Reiki Treatment – One-half hour, $30.00; forty-five minutes, $45.00; one hour, $60.00

Centuries ago, Japanese “Masters” discovered a healing form of energy they called Reiki (pronounced ray-key) which meant “universal life energy”, the energy that comprises everything. “Rei” means “free passage” and “transcendental spirit” and “ki” means “vital life force energy”. Reiki therapists use this powerful form of healing combined with the use of ancient Japanese words and symbols in a non-intrusive method of “hands-on-healing” by acting as a conduit to replenish your body with this “energy source of life” or to balance, and/or relieve you of any excess or hyperactive energy.

Using our Reiki Treatment addresses both chronic and acute conditions and promotes balance among all the body’s systems. You’ll experience a sense of well-being and calmness and your body’s natural ability to heal itself will be enhanced on all levels of body mind and spirit. This is an especially wonderful treatment for children!

  • Deep relaxation and destroys energy blockages
  • Detoxifies the body
  • Provides new vitality to enable your body to naturally heal itself
  • Calms and regenerates while raising your own body’s energy vibration

Foot and Hand Reflexology – One half hour, $25.00, one hour, $55.00

Foot and Hand Reflexology is a treatment based on traditional massage focusing on the feet and hands where abundant nerve endings connect directly to virtually every organ of the body. Deep massage and pressure are used, sometimes with the use of sustained pressure applied to the various “zones” on the feet and hands that react directly to the body’s organs. This helps to break up crystallization around the “zones”, dissolves blocked energy, will help to relieve pain and discomfort and increases health and vitality for the body.

It is recommended that your Foot and Hand Reflexology Treatment be combined with a Scalp Massage Treatment for a total rejuvenation of your body!

Therapeutic Hand & Foot Paraffin Treatment – One-half hour, $25.00 – add to a massage, $16.00

Therapeutic Hand & Foot Paraffin Treatment is tremendously beneficial for arthritic, overused, painful or tired hands and feet. Multiple layers of paraffin are placed on your hands and feet. Both are then “mitted” which allows the treatment to penetrate deeply into the tissues and joints. A hand, arm and foot massage completes the treatment.

Ear Candling Treatment – One hour, $50.00

The Ear Candling Treatment is a century old Eastern Indian “home remedy”.

The spiral end of a small candle is gently inserted into the ear and the outer wick of the candle is lit. The spiral of the cone causes the smoke from the burning candle to be drawn downward into the ear canal which causes the canal to warm and loosens wax and other debris lying there.

The candle flame and the cone geometry create a gentle vacuum that draws out the ear’s debris and helps to relieve congestion. You may also experience a cleansing of your sinuses, Eustachian tubes and nasal passages.

Ear wax buildup is a common problem and most people get great relief from a clear auditory canal, especially those who have a chronic wax buildup, work outdoors or in dusty environments, participate in water activities,  suffer ear-aches, have constant sinus infections or allergies.

Do not have the ear candling treatment if you have had recent ear surgery, cysts or tumors in the ear, acute mastoiditis, ear drains or tubes inserted into the ears and  recent injury or damage to the ear.
