Gratuity:
No extra gratuity is expected.
I operate as a Sole Proprietor and receive 100% of the fee collected. My wage and my cost of doing business are built into my fees. Thus, no extra gratuity is expected. I do have clients wanting to provide extra gratuity from time to time and that is always appreciated but not expected.

I integrate techniques from Swedish, Deep Tissue and Acupressure into a blended massage session. The classic Swedish gliding and kneading strokes are combined with slower, targeted therapeutic deep tissue techniques and Acupressure points to create a custom massage session based on the tension levels and needs of your body. Sessions are tailored to be as relaxing or as deeply targeted as you'd prefer. Each session is customized to your needs that day.
Oil or lotion is used directly on the skin and professional draping is used to cover the body, with only the portion of the body being worked undraped. I’ll work with you during each session to tailor the pressure from light to firm, depending on your preference.
With your approval, I'll use acupressure cupping when I feel it will help release deep tension. I also use blended oils and/or essential oils for both relaxation and tension relief. I use organic products whenever possible. If you have allergies, we can work together to use products best suited to your needs.
For pre-natal clients, I utilize side lying and semi-reclined positions for comfort and safety. Massage is offered after the first trimester while Reiki can be given at any time through the pregnancy. Please provide your pre-natal details in the appointment booking form's "Notes" field.

Reiki
30 Minute Session - $ 75
60 Minute Session - $ 95
30 Minute Remote - $ 65 (Recipient receives remotely)
Reiki is a healing energy practice that originated in Japan in the early 1900’s. Rei means spiritual wisdom or Spirit and ki means energy, so Reiki means spiritual energy.* It does not involve the movement of soft tissue or muscle but is often described as deeply relaxing and restorative.
Anyone of any age or health status can benefit from Reiki, even newborn and pre-natal babies or people at the end of life can benefit from the relaxation that Reiki provides.*
Reiki energy can not harm and compliments other treatment plans and medications. It can easily be incorporated into other massage styles but feels fantastic to receive as a dedicated session.
Reiki is especially helpful for those challenged with anxiety, insomnia, depression and PTSD. I volunteered my Reiki services to the Veteran's Center in Sacramento, CA from 2016-2019 and my colleagues and I received consistent positive feedback from the recipients and their respective counselors. One of the comments often received is, "I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time."
Each person senses the Reiki energy differently and each session is unique. While receiving, some people sense energy moving within their bodies, some feel temperature changes under my hands, some feel emotions moving through, some see colors or images, some drift off into a dream like journey, some go to sleep and some people don't sense anything noticeable. And even if nothing is felt and the session is quiet, the Reiki energy still goes where needed to balance, restore and refresh.*
Reiki can be received in person or remotely. If you are new to receiving Reiki, I recommend receiving in person first in order to best experience the energy and be able to give each other immediate feedback. If you are familiar with energy work or meditation, remote sessions offer flexibility to receive when you are not able to come in to the studio. This is often a nice option for hospital support before, during or after procedures and for grief support.
In-person sessions: You'll remain clothed during the session, removing shoes, belt and large jewelry. For a combined session with Reiki following Massage, the client remains on the table fully draped during the Reiki portion. I'll place my hands lightly on or just above your body, inviting this healing energy to flow through me into you. It is called a healing art because I use both traditional hand placements as well as listening to my intuition on where next to place my hands.
Remote sessions: We'll schedule an appointment just like an in-person session. Allow yourself a space to receive that is quiet and uninterrupted. It's nice to allow yourself time before and afterwards to relax versus rushing in and out of the session. You may add music, essential oils, eye masks, PJs or whatever creates a comfy restful space in which to receive. You may receive lying down or in a supportive chair. Create a space in which you can fully let go and focus on your breath. Before the session, we'll discuss and agree to work on specific needs or allow a general wellness session. Afterwards, if you'd like, we can schedule time to chat by phone or text to exchange information about the experience. I'll text before and after the session to let you know when I'm beginning and ending the session.

This book is a great resource for learning more about Reiki, to include what to expect during a session, how to select a practitioner or teacher and the amazing benefit of Reiki self-care. I don't receive any compensation from this referral but find it's a helpful resource I return to often.
