Connective Tissue Massage - This type of work is focused on the connective tissue, or fascia of the body. The fascia wraps and binds everything in the body, including the nerves, veins, bones, muscles, and organs. Due to surgery, physical injury, poor body mechanics, and a number of other reasons, our fascia can become tightened, or hardened. CTM works to open, lengthen, and liquify these areas of the body. When applied correctly, CTM helps relieve chronic tension, promotes deep relaxation, enhances self-awareness, improves posture and increases range of motion. People tend to feel lighter, longer, and more open throughout their bodies after a session.
Connective Tissue Bodywork - A combination of Structural Integration, a series of 10 sessions intended to help re-organize the bodies segments around a central axis, and Hypnotherapy, creating a safe place and a trusting relationship to allow for emotional release and healing. Supporting language helps encourage clients that are willing to explore parts of themselves that may need attention/healing.

"To touch the surface is to stir the depths." - Deane Juhan

I have been a practicing massage therapist for 4 years. I graduated from the North Carolina School of Natural Healing where I received a very thorough and in depth education in the power and subtleties of touch and healing. My massage can be dynamic and firm yet still invoke the inner calm needed for integrated healing. I will often employ various techniques depending on what the body is asking for. This might include Swedish, Deep Tissue, sports massage, passive stretching, Reflexology, Traeger, Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular or simple stillness and holding. I am also experienced in all spa treatments including Hot Stones, exfoliations, and wraps. I believe my motherhood and practice in dance and yoga have deepened my natural ability to listen with sensitivity, feel the energy of the body, and bring balance through nurturing.

I like to bring my clients' awareness to the body-mind connection and believe that massage addresses not just the physical aspects of our Selves but the emotional and spiritual as well. For this reason I work to create a safe space that is pleasant and comfortable. I promise to give you my full attention and energy and to work with you to design a session that is what you want and need. Together in this way, we elevate the massage room into a sacred space that allows for the massage to address the whole of You. I also promise to use only organic oils, filtered water, and green cleaning products to do my part to ensure your health and honor the health of our great planet.

In Service,

Sarah
