Therapeutic modalities
When clients have pain, tension or stress, it is usually due to some sort of imbalance. My goal is to restore the body’s natural balance, thus reducing pressure and discomfort.
I use several different types of therapies, depending on the physical issues involved and the preferences of the client.
These include:
MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling (also called collagen induction therapy) is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a handheld device to create microscopic skin punctures in your skin to stimulate your body to produce elastin and collagen. Micro-needling improves the texture of your skin to give you a healthier, firmer skin and younger appearance..
LED LIGHT THERAPY
LED light therapy is known by a few different names including phototherapy, red light therapy or low-level light therapy. It is supported by thousands of peer-reviewed and published clinical research papers from prestigious institutions around the world. You can view a few of those studies here. The rather simple definition of LED light therapy is the application of specific wavelengths of light applied to tissue to obtain beneficial therapeutic results. Think of it as photosynthesis for humans. .
Cosmetic Acupuncture
During a typical procedure, your acupuncturist will insert approximately 40 to 70 tiny and painless needles (like the size of a hair) into your face. The science behind it works like this: as the needles puncture the skin, they create wounds called microtraumas. These small punctures work to stimulate your lymphatic and circulatory systems which work together to deliver the nutrients and oxygen our skin cells need to nourish the skin from the inside out.
ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture helps to prevent illness by improving the overall functioning of the body’s immune and organ systems.
Acupuncture can treat existing illnesses and injuries, prevent both recurrence of illnesses and new illness as well as improve overall health.
CUPPING THERAPY
Based on principles of ancient Chinese medicine, this specialty massage uses cups to create suction on the body, increasing the blood flow and promoting healing.
Often used by athletes to decrease muscle tightness and pain, most clients feel immediate relief and experience increased range of motion.
REIKI
Reiki is a form of energy work in which the practitioner uses a light touch to promote relaxation, decrease stress and improve overall health.
It triggers the body’s natural healing abilities to correct imbalances caused by emotional or physical trauma, injury, anxiety, toxicity or nutritional depletion.
The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute uses massage techniques to reduce pain and stress in its patients.
