Quality Touch Therapy
Hot Locks Spa
Located in a newly remodeled Spa within Hot Locks Salon. I am a certified and licensed as a Swedish Massage Therapist, and also have 40 hours of Hot Stone (Swedish and Deep Tissue) massage.
My style incorporates the traditional Swedish strokes with myofascial strokes, bringing fresh blood into your muscles and the connective tissue that surrounds them. These techniques also help to push out metabolic wastes, break up adhesions and scar tissue that may be limiting your movements and causing pain.
I also offer hot stone therapy which softens your tissues more quickly. This type of massage includes placement of warm stones on sore muscles. Muscles are also massaged with the warm stones. The heat of the stones sedates pain signals, and allows for deeper access into your muscles, while enhancing a deep relaxation experience.
Aromatherapy may also be included to help enhance relaxation. We exclusively use Young Living Essential Oils, the only oils on the market that are 100% therapeutic grade. This guarantees that your oils have no alcohol or additives. Oils are used for inhalation, and sometimes used on the skin, depending on your needs.
Education/Training
I am a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University with a BA in English.
I received my massage training from the Lexington Healing Arts Academy, graduating in January 2008.
Hot Stone certification from iMassage.inc, taught by Eric Stephenson.
Bio
I came into the realm of massage therapy with the intention to provide a peaceful atmosphere for others to find their healing. I believe that true healing happens on the physical, mental and spiritual levels. I also believe that each individual should be in total control of their own healing.
I love massage therapy because it is not only relaxing and luxurious, it helps to strengthen the heart, improve your immune system, and helps your mood by the release of hormones...and these are just some of the affects!
I have practiced within medical offices and in spas, and so have a wide range of experience to address your immediate needs. Whether you only wish to relax for a bit, or have areas of pain and injury addressed, your session will be customized to meet your needs.
