Trigger Pt. Therapy
Trigger point massage utilizes ischemic compression of individual areas of hypersensitivity in muscles, ligaments, tendons and fascia. A trigger point is an area within soft tissue structures that is characterized by local tenderness and/or referred phenomena which can include pain, tingling, numbness burning or itching. Trigger points can cause quite a bit of pain, and trigger point massage is an effective mode of healing.
Polarity Therapy
Polarity Therapy incorporates body work including reflexology, gentle and firm touch, energy exercises, and open communication facilitating self awareness. The blockages and restrictions are cleared and the client's energy field is restored to its natural state of balance to bring a sense of deep relaxation, relief from specific symptoms, clarity or new insight.
Cranial Sacral Therapy
This therapy is a gentle hands-on-method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the cranio sacral system. Using a soft touch generally no greater than the weight of a nickel, your practitioner releases restrictions in the cranio sacral system to improve the function of the central nervous system. This therapy is particularly useful for stress, neck and back pain, migraines.
Reiki
Reiki is an old art of energy healing. This technique uses the Universal Life Energy to initiate healing from within and is administrated by “laying on hands”. Its direct effects include also reducing stress and promoting relaxation. It can also help a person get in touch with the inner self, which is essential for personal improvement.

Deacon Carpenter - Ayurvedic Consultations
I got my first introduction to Ayurveda at the age of 16. I was 320lbs with a host of health problems, which were making me miserable. I changed my lifestyle, diet and took up Yoga.
After about a year, I shed 140lbs and realized that it was my life's calling to re-introduce Ayurveda to the world, but give more of an approachable tone.
I spent 14 years in Global Advertising in New York City, and in 2007, decided it was high time I finished my studies in Ayurvedic medicine. I felt that I could really make a difference in the world, rather than just push out another ad campaign.
As a practitioner, I am honored to have the knowledge of Ayurveda and have been privileged to be my patients partner in health. I look forward to being a partner in yours. Ayurveda comes from two Sanskrit words: Ayus, meaning life, and Veda, meaning knowledge or science. Therefore, Ayurveda is the knowledge or science of life.
In Ayurveda, our body mechanics may be similar, but our physiologies are truly unique. Here in the West, Ayurveda is known as CAM (Complementary Alternative Medicine). However, Ayurveda covers the wholisitic health of the body, mind and spirit through diet and the practice of yoga and the use of herbs.
Together, these practices help to maintain health, and prevent disease.
Developed in 1500 BC, Ayurveda has deeply influenced other popular medical practices, such as Chinese traditional medicine, Arabic, Greek and even Western medicine as we know it today.
Ayurveda was the first medical practice to classify the study of disease into 8 branches (Internal medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Psychology, ENT, Toxicology, Gerontology & Aphrodisiacs or fertility).

Raphael Barker - Massagetherapist and Healer
Raphael Barker performs a combination of Thai, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point and Reiki in his work; informed by his background in counseling, meditation, and the martial arts. He holds a degree in Buddhist and Western Psychology and emphasizes breath and presence in his work to both relax and train the nervous system to adapt better to stress. His work is deep, slow, and compassionate. He is currently working towards a 3 year certification in Somatic, a body based psychotherapeutic technique aimed at resolving and healing trauma.
As a client, you can choose to do either a Swedish and Deep Tissue massage that is done on a table or a Thai Medical Massage which is done on a mat (like Shiatsu). Thai medical massage uses a combination of stretches, joint mobilizations, compression, and pressure points to balance the system and optimize physical performance. Raphael also looks for trigger points: often painful muscle nodules that when released, provides relief to the surrounding musculature.
