Swedish Massage
The most common type of massage is Swedish massage therapy. It involves soft, long, kneading strokes, as well as light, rhythmic, tapping strokes on topmost layers of muscles. This is combined with movement of the joints. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish therapy can be both relaxing and energizing.
Deep Tissue Massage
Best used to help alleviate certain painful, stiff “trouble spots” in your body. The massage therapist uses slow, deliberate strokes that focus pressure on layers of muscles, tendons, or other tissues deep under your skin.
Pre and Postnatal massage
Prenatal massage offers great comfort and support. It improves blood, lymph, and other body flows involved in the growing and changing pregnant body. It supports the mothers mood, improves, sleep, decreases stress and pain.
Postpartum massages include many of the same elements of regular massage. Women who receive massage after giving birth typically notice numerous benefits to their body and mood, which help with postpartum healing.
Sports Massage
Therapeutic sports massage is a type of massage technique that focuses on treating soft tissue aches, pain, and injuries that are associated with professional or recreational activities. Massage can reduce muscle stiffness and improve relaxation by reducing heart rate and blood pressure.
Thai Massage
Thai massage is a healing art that combines assisted yoga stretching, massage, acupressure, traction, rocking, rhythmic compression, and energy work. Sessions are unique in that they can be done either on floor or on the table. Thai Massage can help relieve muscular tension and tightness, counter the effects of sitting all day, help with injury prevention and rehabilitation, and decrease anxiety and stress.
Reflexology
Integrative Reflexology is a bodywork technique that creates a deeply relaxing and healing effect on the body focusing on energy meridians and specific points on the feet, hands and ears. It can treat major systems of the body, internal organs, and obliterates stress.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone massage is a type of massage therapy that involves the use of smooth, heated stones. The massage therapist places the hot stones on specific points on your body, and may also hold the stones while giving the massage. The localized heat and weight of the stones warms and relaxes muscles, allowing the massage therapist to apply deeper pressure to those areas without causing discomfort.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is an alternative medicine therapy that treats skeletal muscle immobility and pain by relaxing contracted muscles, improving blood and lymphatic circulation, and stimulating the stretch reflex in muscles.
Cupping Massage
Cupping is a form of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM). Silicone cups help create a vacuum that pulls soft tissue away from underlying structures, helping release myofascial restrictions and increasing local circulation to support tissue health. Temporary painless marks resembling bruises will sometimes appear after cupping therapy. These are due to the unlocking of stagnant blood/fluid and typically disappear within a week post-treatment.
Lymphatic Breast Massage
This relaxing massage can relieve breast tenderness, reduce engorgement, unblock plugged ducts, improve skin tone and increase milk production.

I have been receiving massages from Kathy for the past month. I reached out to her for postpartum care and I am so glad I found her. As an individual, she is gentle and kind and as a massage therapist, she is the best of the best. As a massage therapist, she is incredible. I have felt relief in pains that were even present before pregnancy. She nailed my sciatica pain and gave me so much relief that I hadn’t experienced in Months. I recommend her one hundred percent. You are in safe hands if you work with Kathy!

My head ache and joint pain went away after our first energy medicine session! I’ve been doing the Daily Energy routine you taught me and have felt more grounded and balanced.

RB client
I am a hypnotherapist and have received many sessions from other hypnotherapists over the years. Working with Mary was a deep and healing experience. She focused in on exactly the past events that I needed to understand and resolve to feel more comfortable and secure in my life. She guided me beautifully and I came out of the session truly transformed. My sleep is better and deeper and my daily experience is more comfortable. I highly recommend working with Mary if you are seeking to heal and transform something troubling you

I feel really good, balanced and happy after our energy medicine sessions!
Michelle
Cristina’s energy medicine treatment for the SI joint pain worked wonders. Made an 8 hour car ride with no problem. Would not have happened without her.
RB client
Cristina’s coaching shook me out of my most stuck place in just 3 weeks, AND she made it feel like is was mostly a chat over coffee! You deserve to break free of what holds you back. I literally thought I was doomed to more of the same stagnation it was so prevalent for so long until I experienced this shift. What if only 6 hours using this process, with Cristina doing half the work, could move you forward substantially?
Liv K
Kathy is very attentive and responsive. She tailors the treatment as she responds to feedback from the client. She also offers suggestions as to what I can do beyond the massage sessions to further my goals.
RB client
Kathy is kind and generous and her Thai yoga massage is transformational. I’ve had many massages in the past but none get the knots out like her Thai massage.
