Reiki
Reiki originated in Japan in the late 1800’s by Dr. Usui and is a subtle form of energy work, designed for healing purposes.  Reiki is very gentle, safe and non-invasive in that your body simply “takes” what it needs while Liza’s hands simply lay on energy points of your body, which act as a conduit of Reiki energy.

Swedish Massage
Long sweeping strokes to promote relaxation are what make up what we traditionally know as massage therapy.  Very soothing and nurturing in its effects upon your body, mind and spirit.  

Pain Control Techniques

Sometimes there are soft tissue issues that are chronic and require more specific work.  There are a variety of techniques to use, from myofascial stretches to trigger point work, which are often referred to as “deep tissue” techniques.

Sports Massage
Because balance is the key for optimum performance, sports massage is best utilized on a regular basis in order to prevent injury and to allow maximum healing of overworked soft tissues.  Any of the above techniques can be used/combined to design what works best for you.

Aromatherapy
For centuries, smell has been used to highten our awareness and to promote specific responses.  From invigorating to relaxing, choose a scent and it will be incorporated into your massage session.
