Kripalu Massage
Like Kripalu Yoga, Kripalu Massage is the massage of compassion. Trained at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health's former massage school which was approved by the US National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork, I use many different modalities for your total comfort and bliss. Kripalu Bodywork was described by the Kripalu School of Massage as "taking the technical skills and strokes of massage and transforming them into a sacred experience of intuitive healing touch."
Begin with soft candle light, soothing meditative music, aromatherapy and centering guided breath awareness or imagery. Energy balancing Reiki is included if desired. Feel nurtured from your head to your toes, including a face and scalp massage. Feel your aches and pains melt away with Swedish medium to deep tissue strokes, elements of trigger points and reflexology for the hands and feet as well as elements from the Trager approach to body work which is a mind-body approach to movement education. It is a system of gentle, rhythmic movement and touch aimed at facilitating deep relaxation, increased physical mobility, and promoting the body's optimal performance. I use gentle rocking motions and arm and leg extensions.
Sometimes mental/emotional issues, usually from past experiences, are held in the body as pain or tension. These issues may be transformed, by sharing thoughts and feelings in a safe confidential environment, and releasing blockages in the body and mind together. This leads to more balance and peace.

Testimonials
"Beverley’s Kripalu Massage triggered deep release for me, and her kind, supportive presence helped me feel safe to relax deeply. Awesome!"
Pamela Holm
"Beverley, your massages have always proven to be of benefit to me, but when combined with Reiki I felt a very healing process, both physically and spiritually. That night I had the most peaceful, serene sleep that I have experienced in over a year and it was the first time in months that I did not wake up in the middle of the night to take pain medication!"
Debbie Wilson
“I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed my session with you yesterday. I was so relaxed that I had to go to bed early. My sleep was wonderful and I woke up bright and early today full of energy and a feeling of well being. Thanks again. It was a blissful, relaxing experience.”
