Massage & Bodywork with Rachel Jackson L.M.T. & C.Y.I.
Customized Massage
60min - $120 / 90min - $180
This treatment gives you the freedom to create the perfect experience, specific to the styles of massage you respond to best. I have trained in over 10 different modalities of massage and bodywork and can incorporate any of these tools depending on what you might need and/or want out of your healing experience. Choose from Swedish, Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, Reflexology, CranioSacral, Myofacial, Tui Na, Prenatal, or you can simply tell me how you relax best, and leave it in my hands to follow intuition and observe physically what your body might need to achieve your goals. NOTE TO NEW MASSAGE CLIENTS: This is the best session to book if you are a new client. In order to honor our time together and allow for enough intake time to get to know each other, please book the 90min New Client Massage to become an established client (New Client Massage $195). Contact me if you have any questions.
Aroma AcuPoint Therapy 60min -$120 / 90min - $180
This is gentle yet profoundly effective treatment modality that synergistically combines the dynamic healing potential of therapeutic grade essential oils with acupuncture points as entry and activation portals along the energy channels of the body, known as meridians in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Treatment involves applying particular essential oils to specific acupuncture points on the body to promote energetic shifts in the individual for increased healing and harmony, often resulting in a more significant clinical effect than using either of these approaches alone. This approach addresses the whole body, mind, and spirit and draws connection between mental emotional states of disharmony to physical conditions that have manifested.
An Aroma Acupoint Treatment consists of lightly applying just one drop of an essential oil to an acupoint and holding the point until the body presents a healing response such as pulsing at the point calming down, a deep breath, or complexion brightens. The touch is light, the essential oils deliver vibrational frequency into the points much like acupuncture needles, and the holds take time. This approach recognizes the way scent categories such as top notes, heart notes, and base notes carry energetics such as rising, circulating, or sinking into the energy channels via special acupuncture points. During assessment we look to Traditional Chinese Medicine’s Five Elements philosophy to assess where imbalances lie and how to bring balance to the five elements through specific acupressure sequences combined with carefully selected essential oils for harmony and healing at every level. Depending on the presenting disharmonies, this session may include some customized integrations such as craniosacral, reflexology, hot towels, a cold eye compress, moxibustion, or fire cupping (this is an add on service that must be booked ahead).
Important Note: I have found Aroma Acupoint Therapy sessions do not pair as well with oil massage. If you want massage with point work, book a custom session and we can integrate acupressure into that session.
CranioSacral Therapy
60min - $120 / 90min - $180
CranioSacral Therapy is an approach that honors the body’s natural ability to heal and recover through the holding of still points that act as a fulcrum for natural healing responses and decompression. The technique is light (5grams of pressure or less) as the cerebrospinal fluid rhythms are observed and assessed. These fluctuations of cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain and the spinal cord ripple out into the fascia of the whole body and have a much slower rhythm than heart beat or breath. The rhythm can speed up or become imbalanced in an individual under chronic stress or congestion within the connective tissues. The holds take time so that the body can respond naturally, with very subtle traction held to support decompression of the bones in the cranium and the sacral structures so that the craniosacral rhythms can flow more freely and harmoniously throughout the spinal column, and in turn throughout the whole body. My training in this modality began with the Upledger Institute and I recently attended some continuing education within this modality focused on Trauma Recovery & PTSD. Looking at this modality through the lens of mental health was enlightening! I learned some new techniques for unwinding with fluid movement that can help to dislodge the residue of trauma held in the connective tissues and additional holds that can benefit certain conditions. This approach can be supportive to those struggling with some of the following conditions: chronic pain, limitation of movement, headaches, tinnitus, facial/jaw challenges, concussions, autism, ADD/ADHD, symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma or PTSD. If you have Complex PTSD I ask that you please see a qualitied therapist alongside this style of treatment.
Auricular Therapy
15-20min - $66
This is an add-on option to enhance any of the other treatments offered. This therapy is done sitting up before any other treatment. Five to seven essential oils are chosen specifically for you based on your needs therapeutically. The oils are then layered specifically as they are poured behind the ear and are allowed to roll down the neck, shoulder and chest area. The oils are gently massaged into the neck and shoulders as well as around the ear and into the scalp. This treatment is all about the high quality medicinal grade essential oils. These oils are absorbed into the skin behind the ears along the reflexes for the spine as well as along the major lymph nodes and the carotid artery. This treatment can be used to work with issues such as headaches, congestion, allergies, sinus problems, the general cold/flu, TMJ, deep seated neck/shoulder tension and much more! This therapy goes well with a reflexology session or you might consider a full aromatherapy consult for a deeper experience!
