THE TRUE FULL BODY MASSAGE

My early years of massage practice started in spas. I’ve worked in the spas at The Beverly Hills Hotel, The Ritz-Carlton, San Francisco and a few others on the West Coast. I blend spa experience with medicine. There is a difference between getting a “spa massage” and receiving the bodywork experience that I offer. I hold a Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine in combination with a Master’s level of education in massage therapy and bodywork. I have been practicing massage work for 22 years. My sessions combine classic Swedish massage technique, structural bodywork, Russian sports theory, advanced injury treatment with Chinese medicine meridian theory and somatic practices to unwind and free patterns of chronic trauma, anxiety, pain, and stress in all levels of self from the inside out. Massage treatments include moxibustion therapy or cupping to warm the channels, increase blood flow, melt areas of stagnation and pain, increase oxygen flow, and decrease inflammation.

75 minutes: $175.

Danielle takes the first few sessions to tune into your body and get to know it, listening first. Then, expect that even when she is working on a specific area of the body that she takes the whole body into consideration which provides for a well integrated, powerful experience.

ABDOMINAL MASSAGE

My own experience in receiving abdominal massage enriches my work, resulting in deeply intuitive and technical sessions. I use a gentle approach to release old traumas and stuck emotions from the abdomen and pelvis. My goal is to free tissues and organs from physical and emotional stagnations that hinder overall wellness, digestion, and reproductive health. Many individuals suffer from digestive trouble in addition to painful periods, fertility challenges, fibroids, cysts, and prolapses. Regular massage treatments combined with self-care can drastically improve digestive and reproductive troubles while promoting overall health and vitality.

 

USE ABDOMINAL TREATMENTS TO ADDRESS AND SUPPORT:

  • The parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest)

  • Digestion

  • Heartburn, all symptoms of IBS, gas and nervous tummy

  • Fertility Challenges

  • Painful and irregular periods

  • PMS

  • Circulation of blood and lymphatic fluid to support natural and assisted detoxification

  • Post surgery trauma, swelling and scar tissue

I’m lucky enough to have had a lot of massages in my day and have developed a pretty high standard. There are massage therapists who just go through the motions and therapists who are genuinely interested in making you feel better THEN there are therapists who are genuinely interested in making you feel better AND are highly trained. Danielle is one of them.

I’ve never felt such a contrast before and after a massage, I felt like I was on cloud nine afterwards. Long story short, I’m 9 months pregnant and have been searching for a decent prenatal masseuse the entire time and of course it took me 9 months to find her. I’ll be recommending her to every pregnant woman I come upon but fully intend on enjoying her talent post natal as well.
