Therapeutic Massage

It brings me joy to offer healing massage and see people benefit with greater ease, self awareness and relaxation. Massage is an exchange between client and therapist involving awareness, trust and ability to release and heal.

I offer therapeutic massage for body, heart and mind. Integrating Swedish, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Hydrotherapy (hot towels), Reiki, and Tibetan singing bowls for a deep healing experience that will leave you feeling grounded and nurtured. I address chronic muscle tensions through Deep Tissue, Myofascial Release, Mobile Cupping or Gua Sha techniques.

I bring in energy balancing where there are blockages to clear holding patterns
and help you realign with your power to heal.

Prenatal Massage

Greetings! Aloha. I am very excited and honored to be offering Traditional Hawaiian Lomilomi healing massage therapy. Lomilomi is very effective in relieving any muscle pattern that is causing chronic pain, acute pain, or overall discomfort. Whether it is neck, back, and or hip issues such as sciatica and/or lack of mobility, Lomilomi brings relief to the body.

The session can be very deep tissue or more gentle as an overall body tuneup depending on the individual’s specific needs.

I have had the honor of apprenticing with an amazing Teacher, Kumu Haunani Hopkins on the Big Island of Hawaii, with whom I still have endless Gratitude for. Upon passing My Hawaii state exam in 2016, I became a Certified Massage Therapist of Traditional Hawaiian Lomilomi. My Teacher, as well as myself, honors her Teacher, Aunty Margaret Kalehuamakanoelulu’uonapali Machado. With respect, I quote “Remember Hawaiian Lomilomi is a praying work!” I do believe it is very important to be humble in ones approach to give bodywork and to honor the Source ALWAYS.

As far as my education goes, I also have a background in Swedish massage and became a Holistic Massage Practitioner back in 2004. Over the past 15 years, my ongoing education has included Medicinal Aromatherapy certification, which Involves using” high-quality” essential oils directly on muscles and or spine for release of pain on the physical and emotional level. This treatment is also very supportive to the vitality of the nervous system as well as increasing immune system response. My studies have also led me to take various workshops in Mexico, Hawaii, and California that emphasize the mind/body connection through healing visualizations, dreamwork, prayer, and meditation.

Some of the principles I engage during a Lomilomi session are pule (prayer), ho’oponopono (resolving conflicts within the self as well as with family and other relationships), the use of medicinal aromatherapy, and working with the “Ha” breath. Each session is unique, depending on the individual needs/issues.

May we all feel better in our mind and body!
