Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy uses scent to evoke feelings of well-being. Aromatherapy oils come from plants, flowers, and trees. Many modern allopathic medicines are still derived from the plant world! Pure essential oils can have a favorable impact on the body, mind and spirit.

Massage/Healing Touch

The need for touch is a universal human need. It comforts, relaxes, and heals. There are many variations of the “laying on of hands”...it is a philosophy and a sacred healing art of caring used to restore and maintain wholeness through harmony and balance. The true value of touch is the life-force energy within.

Reflexology/Acupressure

Reflexology and acupressure are ancient healing methods involving applying pressure to certain key points on the body. Direct trigger points may release muscular tension, relieve stress, ease pain, and relax the mind and body.

Visualization/Guided Imagery

Visualization and Guided Imagery utilize the power of a person's mind to create vivid images that stimulate a calming or healing response in the body, mind, and spirit.

Music

Therapeutic and soothing music is a creative, non-verbal, powerful tool for anyone having difficulty communicating or who is unresponsive. Music may bridge the silence of loneliness, soothe, ease pain, and tap into rich and sacred memories of life.

Prayer

Prayer is having a conversation with an entity greater than self. The power of prayer has been a true, timeless, documented form of healing and inner peace. Respectfully individualized, it can yield truly amazing results.
