Bodywork/Energy Balancing

Elyse offers a unique and powerful combination of Reflexology, Reiki, Acupressure, and Essential Oil Application.

‘Laying of hands’ is one of the oldest and most intuitive forms of natural healing based on the theory and observation of life force energy that flows through all things and causes us to be alive and thrive. This energy can become low or blocked, causing specific problems manifesting in physical, emotional, and mental levels.

Chakras are energy centers inside the body that have been observed and engaged since ancient Ayurvedic medical practices, one of the oldest forms of recorded medicine and healing practices in the world.  Chakra centers can offer an unbelievable amount of vitality and intuitive self-informing as they are ‘tapped into’ and restored to their naturally powerful state.

Reiki techniques involve very light touch that raises vibratory level, clears and heals specific energy pathways. Polarity acupressure techniques involve deeper manipulation, sometimes active rocking and pulsing into the tissue to release deeper blocks, and restore natural pathways of energy (similar to acupuncture), in the most subtle to deep tissue level.

The healing technique of reflexology is ancient, and has been documented in cultures around the world since 2000 B.C. This deeply transformational technique involves the practitioner using her palm, fingers and thumb to stimulate and apply pressure to the reflex points on hands, ears, and feet that are mapped to all of the glands, organs, and parts of the body. Stimulating these reflexes has one or more of the following effects on the corresponding area:

  • Stimulates nerve pathways
  • Enhances energy pathways
  • Opens up circulatory and lymphatic pathways
  • Promotes detoxification
  • Releases endorphins to reduce pain
  • Enhances muscle relaxation
  • Brings about deep relaxation

As a result, reflexology can have very specific health benefits for pain management, sports injuries, joint problems, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, sleep disorders, as well as nonspecific enhancement due to more oxygen and nutrient circulation supporting overall detoxification and stress-related conditions.

Elyse applies medicinal grade essential oils to reflex points of the feet, hands and ears, as well as acupressure points along the spine to deeply engage the central nervous system and guides clients in breath awareness as particular blocks are being released. Essential oils target the limbic system of the brain, where emotional memories are stored and basic metabolic processes are managed (such as heart rate and blood pressure). Through use of medicinal grade oils, transformation in the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies can take place gracefully and rapidly, causing profound transformation for the client, and deeper connection to his/her energy body.

At this time Elyse is only working with clients for her three month coaching “Empress” program, please contact her with any questions you may have about this program, or working with her in the future.
