I specialize in Medical Massage-pain relief for the neck and back. I use topical CBD to reduce muscle and joint pain. Although I specialize in both therapeutic and relaxation therapy, I also specialize in Sensual Massage. What is the difference between sensual and sexual touch? Sexual interaction generally relates to arousal, penetration, and orgasming while sensual touch is associated with relaxation, stroking, and caressing. Sensual touch is conversation-it’s slow luxurious, with no outcome in mind. Non-sexual touch has the ability to soothe the autonomic nervous system, an added bonus is that it also improves immune function. Sensual touch regulates hormones critical to relaxation, heart health, and muscle growth. It increases levels of oxytocin as it creates feelings of relaxation, trust, and intimacy while down regulating negative stress responses such as anxiety and aggression. Less commonly known is that oxytocin is also indispensable for healthy muscle growth and repair, and is cardio protective. Sensual touch also regulates the function of other hormones including cortisol and norepinephrine which are also important for healthy stress management. I own and operate a reputable and professional establishment, I am not a “massage parlor”. No sexual services offered.Established in 2012.Ive been in business for over 20 years. In Raleigh since 2012.Greetings, I have had a passion for massage therapy even before I knew about the physiological benefits of body work. Going to school and practicing in Seattle, WA and again here in Raleigh I have been able to combine the best that both Coasts have to offer in their knowledge of holistic health. I specialize in upper back, neck and shoulder pain. I also, work with women that have experienced physical and emotional trauma, and suffer from PTSD, and anxiety (many other diagnosis) to help reduce their symptoms.
