Everyday living in today’s polluted and stressful environment with chemicals in our food, water, soil - even our beauty products- can burden our bodies. The body’s mode of excretion may be able to counteract these negative effects for a time, but may be overwhelmed after long exposure resulting in headaches, nausea, sluggishness, poor sleep, depression, tiredness, lowered immunity, allergies, hormonal imbalances, stress, anxiety and other disorders. If you are experiencing any of these things you may benefit from a good foot detox!
All the benefits of the 30 minute session with extra time for stretching and deep tissue techniques. If you are experiencing severe neck and or upper back pain, or hip and leg pain, this is the session for you!
Not sure what you want and need? This custom massage can include Swedish, deep tissue, hot stones, stretching - whatever you like.
Deep tissue massage targets chronic tension in muscles that lie far below the body’s surface. Deep muscle techniques involve slow strokes, direct pressure or friction movements that go across the muscle grain.
When there is chronic muscle tension or injury, there are usually adhesions (bands of painful, rigid tissue) in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Adhesions can block circulation and cause pain, limited movement, and inflammation. Deep tissue massage works by physically breaking down these adhesions to relieve pain and restore normal movement.
Massage therapists will use their fingers, thumbs or occasionally even elbows to apply the needed pressure. It is especially helpful for chronically tense and contracted areas such as stiff necks, low back tightness, and sore shoulders. Some of the same strokes are used as classic massage but the movement is slower and the pressure is deeper and concentrated on areas of tension and pain.
Unlike classic Swedish massage therapy, which is used for relaxation, deep tissue massage usually focuses on a specific problem, such as: chronic pain, limited mobility, recovery from injuries (e.g. whiplash, falls, sports injury), repetitive strain injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, osteoarthritis pain, fibromyalgia, and muscle spasms.

The Chi Machine is a device designed to gently move your body in a fish-like motion while you lie down. Benefits include: temporary relief of minor muscle aches, pain and tension caused by fatigue or over exertion; temporary increase of local blood circulation and oxygen by relaxing muscles locally; stimulation of lymphatic system which promotes elimination of metabolic waste and toxins; promotion of lymph drainage, mental focus and physical energy.
If you suffer from arthritis or lower back pain, the Chi Machine can be a gentle way to find some relief. The gentle oscillation can help improve joint mobility and reduce pain without putting additional stress on the joints. This is particularly beneficial for those who find traditional exercise routines too painful or difficult to maintain.The gentle movement can help keep joints flexible, and by reducing stiffness, the Chi Machine can help alleviate chronic pain associated with lower back issues. For older individuals and those with limited mobility, maintaining circulation is key to overall health. The Chi Machine helps stimulate blood flow and lymphatic movement, which can reduce swelling and improve comfort. Regular use can help in maintaining proper blood flow, which is essential for reducing swelling and promoting healing.

A combination of reflexology, aromatherapy and massage with essential oils applied to the feet and spine. Designed to bring balance and alignment to the body in a noninvasive manner with its relaxing and mild application. Raindrop stimulates the body on a physical and emotional level.
Therapeutic aromatherapy is a form of vibrational medicine that recognizes that every tissue and organ, as well as the body as a whole, has its own electromagnetic energy field. Most physical conditions and diseases begin to manifest in our energy fields before they occur in our physical bodies. Therapeutic grade essential oils have specific electromagnetic frequencies and tend to migrate to the tissues or organs that resonate with their own frequencies. Some oils move toward muscles, joints, and bones, while others are drawn to the digestive tract, the lymphatic system, the reproductive organs, or to the heart and circulatory system. Oils may be attracted to the liver, the kidneys, the pancreas, the thyroid gland, or the nervous system or brain. This therapeutic method may not only lead to the disappearance of an existing physical problem in the body, but can even prevent a condition that has manifested in the energy field from ever manifesting physically.
The use of undiluted essential oils in Raindrop Technique is consistent with the French model for aromatherapy, which is the most extensively practiced and studied model in the world. Having used essential oils clinically since the 1920’s, the French have consistently recommended neat (undiluted) use of essential oils.
A Raindrop session takes about an hour and may continue to work in the body for up to a week following a session, with possible realignment and bodily adjustment taking place during this time.

Used in localized areas for treatment of pain or discomfort. Cupping is an alternative therapy that involves suctioning the skin with glass, plastic, or silicone cups. It may help improve blood flow, boost immune function, remove toxins, and reduce pain. Many believe that cupping helps balance yin and yang, or the negative and positive, within the body. Restoring balance between these two extremes is thought to help with the body’s resistance to pathogens as well as its ability to increase blood flow and reduce pain.
Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This may relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair. It may also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue.
Cupping marks - a circular skin discoloration, similar to a “hickey”, can develop and be visible on the skin for up to about a week, depending on how long they are stationed on an area. These bruises are NOT tender to the touch as a normal bruise would be. I normally use the cups in a dynamic fashion which does not leave deep discoloration, but in some cases longer durations may be needed depending on the severity of the discomfort or pain.

Spiritual direction is a conversational and prayerful relationship of seeking God together through the journey of life, focusing on the client’s personal experiences of God. The spiritual journey is often a lonely path, especially during difficult or challenging times. A sacred companion, I.e. a spiritual director, can guide and reflect back to us God’s presence in our life and the world—awakening new opportunities to connect with Him. The true director of the spiritual direction process is not the person hosting the conversation, it’s Holy Spirit. The director simply serves as an ambassador to the Spirit of Christ by ministering God’s continual friendship. Through holy listening the director can reflect Jesus’ love and empathy to help others experience God and follow the Spirit’s leading, while providing guidance for their relationship with God. Dawn hopes to become your Soul Friend and walk with you on your journey of discovering God’s purpose for your life and the challenges you are facing. ❤️
