What is your intention?
Massage and bodywork can address many physical and somatic issues. Hence the myriad of styles, techniques, modalities, tools, and philosophies to learn and use. I know and offer several different approaches to massage and bodywork in my practice. By understanding the goal or intention you are seeking, I can approach your session to best suit you. Some questions for common bodywork goals and intentions: Are you…
Looking for targeted myofascial release?
Wanting to find relief of chronic pain and tension?
Hoping to increase mobility?
Wishing for increased circulation and lymph flow?
Needing help to reduce swelling and inflammation from a surgery or autoimmune disease?
Interested in creating a deeper mind-body connection?
Needing to calm your nervous system?
Wanting to just relax and reset?
Suffering from chronic pain, injury, trauma, or just the daily stressors of life can impact our nervous systems; increasing tension and anxiety, resulting in pain and discomfort. Four Stone Harmony offers a space to slow down, connect to one’s body, relax, and restore. With intuitive, skillful, therapeutic touch grounded in proven methods, anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology, Four Stone Harmony invites you to rest and heal. Since each person is unique, each massage and bodywork session is customized using a variety of techniques based on the individual’s concerns, health history, and preferences.
