Service Descriptions:

Integrative Sessions:

Integrative sessions can include Traditional Swedish, Deep Tissue, Reflexology, Sports Maintenance, Reiki, Thai Massage, and others. Intuitive Readings and Gemstone therapy are available as part of a session, as well. They are incorporated into the time scheduled upon request as an integrated piece of the work being done.

Each session will be customized specifically to meet the client’s needs at the time of the session.

Swedish Massage:

Receive deep relaxation from a massage modality specifically designed to help ease stress, soothe the nerves, increase circulation, and help boost the immune system by promoting a sense of health and well-being in the body. Long, fluid strokes combine with kneading, stretching, and tapotement to encourage the body to move back into balance.

Ti’an Di Bamboo Massage:

Experience Heaven (Ti’an) on Earth(i) with this wonderfully relaxing Traditional Chinese Medicine inspired modality. TCM believes the body to be made up of the 5 Elements (Metal, Water, Earth, Wood, and Fire) and Spirit. Bamboo rods known as "Cho Sticks" (pronounced "choo") of various sizes are used to massage the body, promoting the restoration of balance and encouraging the release of toxins. Take the experience further and add Cupping and Scraping to the service, to encourage further removal of toxins. For Cupping, plastic cups are applied to the skin and use suction to help pull toxins, work deeply into the muscle to remove blockages, increase circulation, and encourage the opening of tissue to promote well-being. Scraping follows by taking a flat ribbed object and moving it briskly over the skin to scrape off toxins and stimulate circulation. Great as a preventative, Cupping and Scraping can also help with alleviating chronic muscle tightness or even chest colds that seem to linger.

Deep Tissue Massage:

There has been quite a bit of confusion between Deep Tissue and Firm Pressure. Deep Tissue work is a set of techniques used to open and release constricted tissues. Gliding, cross-fiber friction, kneading, stretching, and static pressure can all be incorporated, vigorously or gently, with varying levels of pressure. Some techniques on constricted tissues can cause discomfort, but clear communication between client and practitioner combined with deep, even breathing can help minimize discomfort and help make sessions more effective. When combined with stretching and energy work, tissues can release and physical and energetic bodies can move back into alignment. Beautiful!

While knuckles, elbows, and forearms can and may all be incorporated, at Blissful Being Massage & Wellness the client’s comfort level is always in consideration. The question has been posed: Why not simply push through the pain, hold your breath, and work with really firm pressure to get tissues to release more quickly? One of the body’s first responses to pain is to clench or tighten to protect the area. Another is to minimize breath. If therapist and client choose to “muscle through,” damage can be inflicted on the area, leading to inflammation of the tissues, and even bruising and increased healing time. We have found there to be a gentler way for perform Deep Tissue techniques, helping the body to relax by working slowly and releasing muscles layer by layer. While there may be discomfort, Deep Tissue work does not need to hurt. It can help restore balance in the body over time and work can be performed at the client’s comfort level and still be extremely effective.

Reiki and Seichim

Reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) is a technique from Japan that is frequently used for reducing stress, increasing relaxation, and promoting healing. Seichim (pronounced “say-sheem” or “sake-hem,” depending on when the practitioner learned the modality) is a similar technique that hales from ancient Egypt. The two are combined wonderfully in sessions, and are shared either by touch or by working with the astral body of the recipient either in person or over distance. It is based on the idea that there is an unseen life force energy that flows through us all, causing us to be alive. When this life force energy is low, we are more likely to feel stress or become ill, while when it is high we are more likely to feel healthy and be happier. Reiki and Seichim treat the whole person, physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Benefits include relaxation, feelings of peace, wellbeing, and security. They are safe, simple, and natural. They have shown encouraging results in instances where clients are unable to receive massage due to systemic illness or high pain illnesses, but would still like to have those feelings of comfort, peace, and wellbeing. Reiki and Seichim can also be used with healing injuries, and have been used in conjunction with other medical and therapeutic techniques to help promote recovery. Reiki and Seichim are not religions and there are no dogmas, though they are spiritual in nature. All are welcome.
