Mae loves MLD and so do we!

In this reel, Mae is performing manual lymphatic drainage for Kiera’s face and neck. While this is super sped up (5x!) we loved how this audio track matched the rhythmic flow of Mae’s movements. #MLD is a slow and repetitive subtle modality which works on the lymph receptors at the skin level to reduce fluid retention, inflammation and swelling for general wellness, or to support various medical conditions.

2026 -Year of the Fire Horse

Chinese New Year 2026 welcomes the Year of the #FireHorse

This will be a year associated with vitality, movement, passion, and forward momentum. Fire Horse energy is bold and expansive, but it can also burn fast if not supported with care.⁠

⁠Massage therapy helps ground this energy in the body. Through intentional touch, we support circulation, ease tension, and calm the nervous system while creating a balance between movement and rest.⁠

New service: Reflexology

New service: Reflexology

Not just a foot #massage - #reflexology is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and impacts the whole body. Each area of the foot "reflects" different parts of the body, from internal organs like the spleen to respiratory structures like the sinuses, and even musculoskeletal regions, like the neck and back. Massage on the feet also elicits a parasympathetic nervous system response - relaxation. In this way you can receive a treatment that is both wholistic and targeted. ⁠
