Benefits of Complementary Modalities

Massage brings the power of conscious touch to awaken the body and soul, thereby reducing stress and anxiety, calming the nervous system and improving circulation.

Chinese Medicine, including acupuncture, is commonly used for relaxation, pain management, and immune support.

Reflexology is an alternative form of applying gentle pressure points on the feet to promote relaxation and a healthier balance to the body’s systems.

Clinical Aromatherapy provides an aromatic influence commonly used to reduce agitation and anxiety. Aromatherapy also supports the immune system and promotes healthy skin quality.
