STRETCH SESSIONS
In these one-on-one, full-body sessions that take place lying down, your therapist will move you through a customized and dynamic stretch session that will allow your body to release tension and ease into openness.
An Ancient Thai massage technique using a combination of assisted, yoga-like stretching, gentle massage, and acupressure along the meridian lines of the body, helps facilitate full body decompression and increases the flow of life force energy throughout the body.
The service begins with a warm neck wrap, herbal tea, and foot soak so that you may begin to unwind. Your therapist will discuss the state of your body as they customize a session specific to your needs.
ELISE
BFA, MLS, LMT, RYT200
Elise, a graduate of Lotus Palm in Montreal, is a practitioner of Thai Yoga Massage, an ancient practice, consisting of gentle pressure and stretching techniques to help relax and alleviate pain for the whole body. Elise also studied deep-tissue therapeutic massage at the Therapeutic Massage and Training Center. Hyper muscle tension and chronic pain pushed Elise to discover massage also as an integral part of a wellness plan.
Elise is also a registered yoga teacher who teaches restorative yoga and yoga nidra in hopes of bringing more access to this practice which can have a deeply calming and therapeutic effect. A regular yoga or meditation practice is the best "between massage" upkeep one could do for their mind and body.
Forever a student, Elise pulls from her toolkit of Thai Massage, therapeutic massage, yoga, and myofascial release, amongst others to help you explore your body's current abilities and to remind your body of how it is able to be.
