Reiki healing reduces stress and promotes relaxation, aids in more restful sleep, improves the immune system and maintains vibrant health.
SWEDISH MASSAGE Swedish Massage is the most popular form of massage. It works by stimulating circulation and involves five basic kneading strokes (which can be performed either gently or firmly), all flowing toward the heart to manipulate soft tissue. Swedish massage is beneficial for increasing oxygen levels in the blood, decreasing muscle toxins, easing tension, improving circulation and bolstering the immune system.
TRADITIONAL THAI MASSAGE Therapeutic Thai Massage has been practiced in Thailand for over 2,500 years, and is often included in sacred ceremonies. Thai massage is performed on a firm mat on the floor rather than on a table, and includes passive stretching and gentle pressure along the body’s energy lines to increase flexibility, relieve muscle and joint tension and balance the body’s energy systems.

Petra is the BEST multidisciplinary massage therapist around! Every massage is a custom experience in which she will weave in additional treatments depending on your needs. My favorite is a Swedish massage mixed with Rain Drop Therapy and Craniosacral therapy. I relax the instant I walk into the century old building with high ceilings and light from the tall windows. The massage room is a large, warm comfortable space bathed in light and perfectly quiet. Petra is gifted.

Petra connects immediately with the client on numerous levels and makes the entire experience unique. She can tailor a combination or just do one type of massage for your timed session as you need that day. She is well versed in essential oils and uses them to enhance the experience. She has a relaxing studio with great parking and appointment flexibility for customers. She has package deals for massages and her gift certificates are great for any occasion.
