Somatic Healing in fluid gravity
Unlike floor or table massage, aquatic therapy takes place in warm healing waters to fully relax the body, allowing fatigued and irritated injuries to release and reset gradually. Instead of blunt force adjustments we use passive stretching, massage and spinal undulation to reset fascia and restore alignment to your way of being.
Passive stretching with Thai & Swedish massage
Unbound by gravity your body levitates in warm water inviting more spaciousness and relaxation to frayed nerve endings. This unprecedented access to numerous ranges of motion invites ease, comfort and security allowing you to drop in fully to a place of contemplation, letting go and healing
Range of motion and full body undulation
As we alternate between contraction and expansion while tractioning the length of the spine thru arms and legs, your body will be able to access peak expressions of flexibility and kinesthetic connection seldom achieved without the assistance of a guiding hand in the gentle countervailing forces of water that will meet you with support at every step.
Embryonic holding to find spaciousness
Hardest to grasp without direct experience is the oddly familiar sensation of being held weightless as we fly thru a liquid reality: exploring our capacity to move in dimensions we wouldn't entertain on land. Quieting the chatter that occupies our thoughts and moving us towards pure instinct. In essence, allowing us to connect to the forces that shapes our inner universe.
