Human alchemy via massage therapy and energy work
Why Green Lion?
Alchemy may conjure images of ancient people seeking the truths that modern scientists have brought to light. The deeper truth is that alchemy is an artform of symbols and meanings; a dance of thought and lived experience.
GLAS (Green Lion Ate the Sun) represents a transformation. It is a symbol that shows humans can overcome pain, anger, and the instincts that lead one to destruction. GLAS helps you forge a pathway to healing with massage therapy in the spirit of physical wellness and the exploration of energy in the unseen with divination and energy modalities.
Whether you choose to go about this journey through energy work and symbolism in divination, or the physical discipline of massage, I hope to be your mindful facilitator.
What should you expect at your massage?
Your massage experience will be completely customized to you and your needs.
Upon arrival, you will fill out an intake form and discuss any physical conditions, injuries, or immediate needs that may affect your massage therapy plan.
After we establish a treatment plan, we will begin with the plan in alignment with your desired services. You may add divination and reiki in any part of your experience, and you will have a massage medium made tailored to you with essential oils.
Clear communication throughout your services as well as comprehensive mutual respect will ensure a pleasant and relaxing experience that will leave you glimmering energetically, physically, and mentally.
What kind of massage is right for you?
Swedish/Relaxation Focused Massage
Every form of massage has therapeutic value, and Swedish massage is a foundational core of the art and science of massage therapeutics. When receiving a Swedish massage at GLAS, you can expect a massage that is focused on long, slow strokes across the skin with variable pressure based on client preferences. The purpose of these strokes is to provide relaxation and a sense of wellness in the body, while the kneading strokes help relieve larger areas of tight muscles. If you do not have any chief complaints regarding your muscles and body, the Swedish style can help provide full body relief and restoration.
Deep Tissue/Targeted Massage
This style of often suited for a body that has focused areas of tension or pain that need to be addressed. While deep tissue massage can access areas of the body that are nestled deep beneath the surface, the pressure is still completely adaptable to your needs and preferences. Light or heavy pressure can be applied to access the deep areas of the body that need massage, and I bring that mindfulness into every massage. This form of massage is highly misunderstood in common culture, and at GLAS I aim to equip you with full knowledge and communication regarding your expectations for my services.
Additional Neuromuscular Techniques
I have additional training in various modalities including: Triggerpoint Therapy, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), Active Isolated Stretching (AIS), and Spinal Reflex Therapy (SRT).
Reiki and Energy Modalities
The body, mind, and spirit all align to create wellness within each of us. At GLAS Massage Therapy, I also employ energy working techniques to cultivate the spirit as well as the body. Reiki, Chakra Balancing, and divination can all be included in your massage services, or as independent services.
