Therapeutic massage that may combine several styles of therapeutic  massage and bodywork. 95% of patients receive this treatment. Pretty much you let me use my best judgement to determine what your body needs based on how the soft tissue feels and responds. Combining Eastern & Western techniques to unlock your tension and melt stress away. Because slowing the autonomic nervous system down is crucial when we are stressed, I may use more Swedish strokes on one session than another. If you feel like a rock or a tree, I may grab the gua sha tools immediately and get to work. It'll be different each time, but depending on how your tension patterns are, it might also be the same.  No two people get the same treatment around here. 

Intuitive information may come through in this and any session. This is the result of touching bodies intimately for twenty years. If you are easily offended, I may not be the right person to work with you. Though I try to be gentle, some folks really need a firm talking to, to understand their role in the current body they are dealing with.

I have received specialized training in abdominal and organ massage. This often ignored, neglected and shamed area of the body is our power center. We hold our self-esteem in this powerful area of the body. Doctors now refer to the gut as the second brain of the body because the bulk of our immune system and even brain cells are located here. Excellent for those dealing with poor digestion, neck pain, TMJ, history of abdominal trauma or surgery, headaches, mood swings, insomnia, poor boundaries, shame issues,  or poor body image.

Most popular relaxation massage around the world. Sometimes we just need to chill out. Excellent for when we are feeling overwhelmed by our worldly responsibilities and over-stressed. This style uses four common strokes to induce down-regulation to the nervous system: effluerage, petrissage, friction and tapotment. 

Sometimes referred dismissively by massage therapists and lay folk alike as a "fluff and bluff massage", this style  is a really powerful anti-stress and anti-inflammatory massage. Sometimes, rather than dig in, we just need to let go for a while, let our thoughts drift off and get a little floaty. This is a beautiful and grounding way to manipulate the autonomic nervous system into down-regulation.

This style of massage often uses several techniques to get down to deeper layers of tissue. Deep tissue massage can be done with moderate to firm to strong pressures. It does not, and need not, be super deep to be effective. In fact, sometimes that super deep pressure you crave has the potential to make things worse. I often apply silicon cups and/or stainless steel gua sha scrapers in this service, especially if the muscles are hypertonic (very tight). If you're looking for a massage where some

Mamas need some serious TLC because let's face it, it's a lot of work to grow a baby! Safe for all phases of a pregnancy and appreciated after birth as well (Hint! Hint! to partners and family-I sell gift certificates). Full or partial body massage, targeting hips and shoulders, or wherever mama needs it most. Depending on size of belly, a special prenatal cushion may be used to allow mama to lay prone with support under hips and shoulders and no/very little pressure on baby belly. My sister lov

This treatment combines a Swedish Massage with heated stones to soothe and comfort tired and sore muscles. Additional time may be required to fit a full body massage in. Suggested time: 75-90 minutes. Generally, I do this in the winter when the body naturally craves more warmth. The up charge fee is to accommodate the extra time and effort to prep and clean stones.

Sometimes when I am feeling generous, I throw a few stones in the hot towel caddy to add a little extra warmth to a session. When I do this I do not upcharge.

We can come to you to increase employee productivity, focus, and motivation. Chair or table massage is available with 1-2 Licensed Massage Therapists. Upcharge fees for travel and/or 18% gratuity may be applied to contracts over four hours in length. 

Unable to get to us? We can come to you with our portable table or chair. We may require credit card pre-payment for these services. We will travel up to 25 miles from our Wausau or Stevens Point locations. 

Originally trained in High Touch Jin Shin acupressure, Sarah learned learned how to read pulses and use light touch to stimulate energy flow. Since then she has studied more in depth the marma points (acupuncture points along the meridians) and has adapted a modified approach. Light to firm touch can be used, along with tools to increase vibration into the point, like a tuning fork. Depending on the treatment, additional points along the meridian may be stimulated. 

Blending both Western and Thai reflexology to create a whole body treatment by working on the lower legs and feet. Reflex tools are used to stimulate all the reflex points in the feet to enhance energy flow and organ function. Clients have reported improvement for bladder control issues, plantar fasciitis, menopause and other diagnoses. Great for those that spend a lot of time on their feet.

This therapy was created by the osteopath Dr. Upledger. Using light touch to balance the Central Nervous Ssytem, I will gently coax and guide the cranial bones into better balance, work to release tension around the sacrum, mouth work as necessary for TMJ and unwinding for limbs. Great for insomnia, headaches, migraines, TMJ, tinnitus, head injuries and more. This is not a massage, but a gentle hands-on style of bodywork that is non-invasive, slow, yet powerfully penetrating.

These laying-of-hands touch therapies generally use light pressure on the body over the eight main chakra centers, but can also be done off the body or by distance. Tapping into the body's natural magnetic databases, energy is encouraged to flow more efficiently. Common Questions: Can I feel your energy? Yes. Am I healing you? No, your own magnetic resonance is doing the work, I'm just giving it a little help. Can I receive this if I'm a Christian? Yes, this is similar work to what Jesus did. If

Blending skills and techniques to get a read on your energetic, mental, emotional,  physical and spiritual state. This is not a special gift, but a natural intuitive sense we all have. Some of us have strengthened our intuition through education, experience and discipline. Just like an athlete strives to improve their game, I practice to strengthen this skill too-the energetic Mindy body happens to be my playing field. That being said, if I tell you something, please do not take offense or take it personally. Take it with a grain of salt. If it resonates with you, great. If not, don't worry about it and let it go. But be prepared for some tough love and firm direction if you really want to heal and grow.
