Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances subtle body energy systems. The practice utilizes a gentle laying on of hands on or just above the body. The experience is serene relaxation which enhances the body's natural capacity for healing and homeostasis. Together, the word Rei-ki is translated as Spiritual Energy, Divinely Guided Energy, or Universal Energy. The effect is an enlivened sense of harmony between ourselves and the natural world. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain. Crystal placement, tuning fork sound therapy and essential oils may be blended to enhance the experience. This healing modality can be used on children, adults, pets, the elderly, even those who are pregnant. It is a perfect aid for chronic health conditions, fatigue, chronic pain, oncology, and of course for deep relaxation. Christine is a certified Reiki Master Teacher in the Usui system.

Yomassage

This semi-private, small group session (2-5 people max) is a fully clothed service which aims at making the benefits of massage therapy and energy based healing practices more accessible. Each session blends guided meditation and restorative yoga postures with mindful touch while being fully supported with bolsters, blocks and blankets. Considered as Somatic, the combination of touch, gentle stretch, and mindfulness provide an avenue for complete access to deep relaxation and healing. Contact me to reserve private small group party. 

Vibrational Sound Therapy

Vibrational Sound Therapy is a type of energy work based on the belief that everyone has a “life force”, and that the body needs to sustain its balance for optimum health. Anytime you experience emotional or physical illness, it indicates that your life force has simply become unbalanced. I work directly with your energy field using tuning forks to restore balance and flow to your entire system. Through the process of entrainment, your energy field matches to the higher frequencies of the tuning forks to raise your vibration. Once your energy field has been restored to full health, your body will follow.

Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)

Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a specific technique which aims to gently and rhythmically move and restore flow of the lymph fluid through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system. As both a preventative and remedial technique, MLD can be used for a wide range of purposes including seasonal tune up for optimal wellness, stress resilience, allergies, faster recovery from injury, reduction of swelling and discomfort from pregnancy, gentle enough for chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune challenges, chronic regional pain disorder, ehlers danlos syndrome, general anxiety, pain management and strengthened resistance to illness. Christine is a certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist in the Vodder Technique through the Klose Institute.

CranioSacral Therapy (CST)

Craniosacral therapy (CST) is a gentle, non invasive, hands on healing modality that focuses on the wave-like rhythmic pulse that goes through the entire body.This modality releases constriction from head (Cranial) to tailbone, (Sacral) allowing the Cerebral Spinal Fluid to flow in an unrestricted wave, bathing the nerves.  CST can be done clothed or draped and integrated with any other therapies or massage techniques. This powerful yet gentle therapy utilizes gentle myofascial release techniques to reduce fight or flight stress response allowing the body to realign to a pathway of peace, rest and digest.  CST will leave you feeling more relaxed than a normal integrated massage. Christine is a trained CranioSacral practitioner with the Upledger Institute.

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is a form of soft tissue therapy intended to eliminate pain, increase range of motion, and rebalance the entire body. It does this by using massage techniques to stretch the fascia and release the bonds that exist between the fascia, muscles and bones. Fascia is the connective tissue that connects and covers all muscles, organs, and skeletal structures of the body. Direct myofascial release is sometimes known as deep tissue work. Indirect release applies light pressure and gently stretches the fascia; this allows for increased blood circulation and relief from pain.

New! Positive State of Mind (P-SOM)

Functional medicine recognizes that proper drainage at the head, neck and thoracic inlet is essential to optimizing proper metabolism for our brain. In some cases, chronic muscle tension, traumatic brain injury, illness, forward head posture, migraines, Long Covid affects, generalized anxiety and poor sleep can contribute to the impaired function of proper drainage which ultimately leads to further poor chronic health conditions. With this new 90 minute signature service developed by Christine Baade, LMT., CMLDT. we aim to restore peace of mind by combining the gentle touch approach of manual lymphatic drainage with craniosacral therapy to the head, face, neck, abdomen and sacrum and reflexology to remove restrictions and enhance proper flow and function. Benefits may include improved neurocognitive function, reduced brain fog, improved memory and mood along with supporting general wellbeing and stress resilience. 

Reflexology

Reflexology is a type of bodywork that focuses on applying pressure to the specific nerve zones in your feet. Unlike other foot massages that intend to mostly relieve tension in the feet themselves, reflexology is a far more in-depth science that aims to harmonize your entire body. According to reflexology, every part of the human body is mapped into your feet. Reflexology treatments have been found to be highly effective for conditions such as allergies, headaches, and depression.

These molecules of emotion are continuously providing information to every part of our being which in turn influence our individual and group interpretation and outlook on how we experience life. Through intentional breath regulation and proven tools for energy conservation, chakra balancing our emotional wellbeing we can shift from chronic depletion to one that is renewing and replenished within minutes lessening the impact of stress overall.
