Energy & Spirit Healing
Healing work is incorporated into any session when needed. When it is the focus of the session gentle abdominal massage may be incorporated. Healing work varies depending on the body and movement of energy and may involve tools such as massage, movement, sound, smells, crystals, breath, plants, aspertions, visualization, guided journeying, talking. 
Traditional Maya healers believe there are spiritual diseases called susto (fright/trauma), pesar (grief/loss), tristessa (sadness/depression), coraje (anger), and envidia (envy/jealousy).  It is believed that by clearing these heavy emotions from an individual it allows them to walk lighter along their journey in this world.

Pre-Natal Massage 
Massage during pregnancy is beneficial for both mother and baby. The massage will focus on areas needed attending to, including the abdomen (after first trimester only).  Massage to the abdomen and pelvis can help ease mothers aches, help prepare her for labor, and relaxes and stimulate the baby.  Touch for babies is vital, why not start in utero!
 
 
Post-Natal Massage
Getting your body back to "normal" can be a struggle after labor.  Massage can aid in restoring muscles and ligaments to healthy tone.  At three months post-partum it is safe to work on the abdomen and pelvis, including the uterus (MAT techniques used).
