Reiki is a spiritual healing practice. Because Reiki practice is balancing at every level, it can help in any situation, even when it is not the only help you need. Reiki practice is unique in that you can receive a Reiki treatment or you can learn self practice.
Balance means different things at different times. If you are tired, you’ll feel refreshed. If you are anxious, you’ll feel serene. If you are distressed, you’ll feel comforted. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, you’ll discover a renewed clarity and purpose. And these subjective changes come with physical changes associated with deep relaxation, such as a slower heart rate and easier breathing. Read more..
Hypnotherapy is a safe and effective process to help detangle and re-program negative or harmful conditioning of your subconscious mind.

So much more than a facial, this soothing treatment not only enhances your natural beauty, it has preventative and medicinal benefits as well.
Pronounced “gwa sha”, this fabulous facial treatment involves gliding a flat jade or rose quartz stone over the entire face and neck in upward strokes to relax stiff muscles and promote tissue drainage. It is done with a light, gentle touch that leaves the skin healthy and glowing. Even after the first treatment, you will feel rejuvenated. After a few more sessions, results will be even more noticeable. Read more..
