We are living in stressful times. There is a really big need for skilled massage that also integrates healing touch, not only to create deep relaxation but to help modulate the body’s stress response to improve overall health. I aim to make my services affordable so that this benefit can reach many people.
My name is Lee. I have a background in the Zen healing arts combined with a past portfolio as a professional Aesthetician. I currently focus my practice on providing shiatsu and tui na massage treatments which may also be combined with cupping. Many of my clients come to me with fatigue, low spirits, and high stress from their fast-paced lives. My treatment space is a safe-haven where you are encouraged to slow-down and find your happy place.
Shiatsu and Tuina massage are both similar in their focus on stimulating points to enhance Chi or Ki (life force energy) of the body. Both systems balance the flow of energy in the body through the opening of these energy pathways. The increase of Qi-energy is coupled with the release of tight muscles, lengthening of fascia, increased mobility of joints, reduction of pain, improvement in sleep quality, enhancing microcirculation of blood and stimulating lymph drainage.
Where these two systems differ lies in how they are approached. Shiatsu is much gentler and slow with a focus on sensing energy. This is a great treatment to down-regulate the nervous system, slow down and nourish the spirit. It utilizes precise acu-pressure points, gentle stretching, and guided deep breathing to bring the body into balance and alignment.
Tuina is better suited for robust but stressed individuals who need vigorous massage, utilizing deeper pressure, stretching and other passive movements to open and move energy in the channels and bring cool, calm energy to the system.
All treatments are provided to clothed clients on a massage table with fresh linens.
Cupping massage is another modality that I offer. It is designed to enhance your vital energy and immunity by stimulating Qi energy and increasing blood circulation. It directly relaxes the muscles, lengthens fascia, promotes microcirculation and lymph drainage while also opening the energy channels in the body. Cupping is an add-on treatment to complement your massage session. Cupping modality is performed on oiled skin, such as the back. I provide a free consultation to ensure you are a good candidate for cupping.
I follow strict hygienic protocols and continue to use masking in my practice. Exemptions are always welcome. Booking in advance is recommended. I only treat 2-3 people daily from Monday-Friday. Hours: 9am to 4pm (earliest to latest availability).
