Manual Lymph Drainage is a light-touch, hands-on therapy designed to help your lymphatic system do what it is designed to do - remove excess fluids and particulate (proteins, cell fragments, pathogens, etc) from your tissue. Our lymphatic system can get bogged down and needs a little assistance, particularly if its had more to deal with. This process is done entirely within the body - following the lymphatic pathways which all converge just behind the collar bones, heading into the blood stream. From there, the fluid heads to the kidneys and out! I do NOT perform 'wet lymph' (assisting fluid in exiting through an existing/post-surgical incision). There are many health concerns that have been shown to benefit from Manual Lymph Drainage, including:
I am a certified practitioner of Manual Lymph Drainage (Vodder Technique). This service can be combined with massage or other services during your session.
Swedish Massage is based on long fluid strokes designed to improve circulation, release tension, and create relaxation. It can be combined with deeper techniques to get the results you are looking for!
Deep doesn't mean painful! These techniques simply isolate individual muscle groups - often ones that lie 'deeper' in the body for more targeted relief. Most massage is a combination of both Swedish and deep tissue
Energy is part of all of us and the world around us. Not everyone is interested in having energy included as part of their session, and whether or not to do so is completely up to you! If you are interested in learning more, or having energetic work done, please let me know!
NET or NeuroEmotional Technique is designed to connect with the subconscious and with emotional issues that have gotten 'stored' in the body. It can be a great tool to better understand physical symptoms or reactions that don't make sense! If you feel 'stuck' moving forward, sometimes NET can help uncover what is creating the roadblock inside.
Personalized services designed to meet your needs. You pay for your time! You decide you want just massage, just Manual Lymph Drainage, just energy work, or just life coaching. Or you can combine services to tailor your session to fit your needs! I look forward to welcoming you to my office in NE Cedar Rapids.

Most of us have experienced traumatic events. For some, those experiences create life-long impacts. Research has shown that many times trauma actually becomes stored in the body, creating pain and dysfunction without a specific physical cause. Massage is one way to begin to work out those body-held experiences. However, for many, touch has become unsafe.
The Touch Reintegration program I am developing will allow you to explore safe, professional touch within the limits of what you feel comfortable with. These sessions include extensive feedback and tailoring to your needs and goals. I do strongly suggest working with a professional mental health counselor while learning to manage touch again. As with all our massage services, no part of the session will include any type of sexual touch.
