Oncology Massage is a special type - modified massage developed specifically for cancer patients due to the possibility of lymphedema.

I usually combine this massage with Swedish, Reflexology with Geriatric in mind; and depending upon their health status, I can gently use Lomi Lomi and compression on their body where there are no compromised areas. Also, Aromatherapy/AromaTouch can be integrated only if the cancer patient’s doctor agrees, or they are cancer free, and the aromatic smells cause no harm.

I provide this service in a specialized ergonomic chair and at special public events.

Lomi Lomi - 45 - 120 minutes, $2.00 per minute
Learned Lomi Lomi in Maui, Hawaii, which means "massage", and it is a spiritual ritual which is enrooted in the native Hawaiian tradition of healing and natural body care. According to Hawaiian tradition, all living beings are seeking a state of balance and love in the world; similar to Chi (energy), Lomi Lomi moves the water flow within the body. Again, through Lomi Lomi, I apply gentle loving touch, not only to relax my client’s body, but also to facilitate reviving their spirit and filling their body with the energy of love & respect.
Mu-Xing Therapy / Deep Tissue - 45 -30 minutes, $2.00 per minute; can be added to OAS - TBA
Mu-Xing Therapy is a treatment using warm bamboo and rosewood tools to perform deep tissue massage techniques. Using different sized and shaped tools, the therapist applies a variety of massage strokes which address ischemic tissue and promote a deep sense of overall well-being and relaxation. Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.
Pregnancy Massage - TBA
Pregnancy Massage is a style of bodywork designed specifically for pregnant women. Pregnancy is a time when a woman's body endures tremendous stress due to dramatic physical and emotional changes.

Neuromuscular therapy also enhances the function of joints and muscles and accelerates the overall healing process by facilitating the release of endorphins.

Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet.

Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.
