Reflexology is an ancient technique based on the premise that every organ, system and part of your body has a reflex point in your hands, feet and ears and by massaging these points we can feel where the body is not performing at 100%.  Reflexology increases blood flow, encourages relaxation, and helps the body get back to its healthy state.  

Reiki is a hands-free energy healing modality.  Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing  through which a "universal energy" is said to be transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or physical healing and wellness. 

Your treatment starts out with a 10-minute foot soak followed by around 45 minutes of reflexology treatment and ending with a warm river stone massage of the feet and lower leg. The heated stones add to the circulation and relaxation benefits of a traditional reflexology session and also add that little touch of pampering.

I start off with a light, warm facial cleanse and massage to help with lymph flow.  Then I insert a special hollow candle into the ear and let it burn for approximately 10-15 minutes and repeat on the other ear.  The warm smoke from the candles softens the cerumen (wax) in the canal and allows it to be released naturally. Once that is done, I finish off with another facial massage and a light toner or floral water spritz.  Total session is approximately 60 minutes.

Traditional Chinese modality of healing, a part of acupuncture techniques, where the skin is gently rubbed with a special tool to help release toxins that are near the surface of the skin.

Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy in which dried plant materials called "moxa" are burned on or very near the surface of the skin. The intention is to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi (Chi) in the body and dispel certain pathogenic influences.

Moxa is usually made from the dried leafy material of Chinese mugwort (Artemesia argyi or A.vulgaris), but it can be made of other substances as well.  This is a common practice in Tibetan and Chinese traditional medicine and is a great complementary therapy to cupping, reflexology, and acupuncture o name a few.
