CranioSacral Therapy is a gentle, hands-on therapy that focuses on alleviating restrictions to physiological motion of all the bones of the skull,  including the face and mouth, vertebral column, sacrum, and coccyx, with an emphasis on normalizing tension and stress patterns in the meningeal membranes and its fascial connections to the entire body.

Additionally, enhancing the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid within its membrane compartment and balancing perceived related energy fields.

Therapeutic Massage Therapy is a specialized form of bodywork designed to alleviate pain, reduce stress, and promote overall well-being. Unlike traditional spa massages, therapeutic massage focuses on addressing specific physical conditions and enhancing both physical and mental health.

It is effective for managing chronic pain conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and lower back pain, and helps to lower cortisol levels (the body's primary stress hormone), leading to reduced anxiety and improved relaxation. 

Therapeutic massage also enhances blood flow, aiding in the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to muscles, which supports healing and reduces swelling. It targets tight muscles and fascia to improve range of motion and prevent injuries.

Therapeutic massage may alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression by promoting relaxation and releasing endorphins. 

A variety of modalities are used, tailoring to individual needs, including:

Swedish Massage (gentle strokes for relaxation and improved circulation), Deep Tissue Massage (targets deeper muscle layers to relieve chronic tension), Trigger Point Therapy (focuses on specific tight areas to alleviate pain), Myofascial Release (releases tension in the connective tissue surrounding muscles).

Therapeutic massage is often integrated into comprehensive treatment plans and can complement other therapies. 

Cupping therapy is an ancient healing practice that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction, which may help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote relaxation. Commonly used for muscle soreness, tension headaches, and chronic back pain, cupping is popular among athletes and wellness enthusiasts. Many people report benefits such as improved circulation and reduced stress.
