Massage Therapy Services

Certified in the healing art of Deep Body Work®, Laura continues her research and training at the Esalen Institute of Massage Therapy in Big Sur, CA each year. With an intuitive holistic approach to healing, she inspires our innate ability to connect mind, body and spirit while unraveling physical, emotional and energetic tension layer by layer. Her practice embodies a genuine sense of care for each individual by truly listening to what is present and focusing on specific needs and/or injuries that you may be carrying.

​Using breath and intention, Laura creates a safe container for total relaxation. Slow long strokes throughout the entire body allows deep layers of connective tissue to ease areas of tension, increase circulation, improve mobility and range of motion. Creating new space in your body from the inside out positively effects the biomechanics of the neuromusculoskeletal system and allows you to feel the long term benefits after a single session.

Laura blends techniques from different backgrounds such as Deep Body Work®, Shiatsu, Thai Massage, Sports Therapeutics, Reiki, Myofascial Release, AcroYoga Inversion Therapy, Deep Belly & Visceral Release Therapy, Cranial Sacral, while offering insightful suggestion for stretches and Yoga therapy.

Deep Tissue & Sports Therapy

When injuries occur, often times our bodies develop an armor-like structure to protect it from being further injured. Overtime as scar tissue develops, deep tissue body work can allow for more oxygenated blood flow to further heal and repair chronic injuries that our nervous system has held on to for too long. Deep pressure is combined with sport-specific stretching to relieve tension from the inside out.

Acupressure & Reflexology

Tension is known to be stored throughout our bodies and often in specific areas. Acupressure and Reflexology are techniques that release stress and tension that can be caused in a different location than where you may be feeling chronic or acute pain. This technique is helpful to reduce pain while not being invasive to a specific injured area.

Thai Massage & Aromatherapy

This technique is performed on a floor cushion with pillows and blankets for extra support. You will be asked to wear comfortable clothing that is loose and non-restrictive to bloody flow. Rhythmic, deep pressure, rocking, and stretching are combined to leave the body feeling rejuvenated with increased range of motion. Aromatherapy scents allow our nervous system to let go and bring a sense of ease to our journey.

Inversion Therapy

This technique can be used specifically upon request. Inversion therapy can greatly reduce symptoms of pressure and dis-ease of the spinal column, hips and joints. By inverting the body, our discs are gently spread apart and in turn our nerve sheaths have more room for healing and repair. This non-invasive technique can have a positive effect for budged discs and nerve impingement.
