Circle of WellnessFebruary 2011
Greetings!

I hope this year brings you much joy and prosperity both in health & personal endeavors.  We are already into our second month!

 

While every year brings with it new growth and shifts in our thoughts and perceptions, the year 2011 is being analyzed by many different schools of thought from Numerology, Astrology, Biblical meaning, significant events of the past with the number 11 in it to those who simply want to hold an event on the date 9/10/11!     I have also seen repeatedly that the number 11 is a master number (again from Numerology) and if we break it down into two 1's, it also equates to the start or beginning quite simply!

 

Regardless of the meanings and interpretations I ask you this...What does this year mean to YOU and what are you willing to let go of to be replaced with new growth?  You have 11 months left to do it!   

 

Sincerely,

Kathleen Wellman

This year I celebrate my "9th year" as a professional bodywork practitioner and I am grateful to have touched so many lives and met some extraordinary teachers along the way!
  
In addition to offering many different types of modalities, I trust my intuition to guide me to create the perfectly tailored massage to deliver the best results for you.  
  
I blend multiple techniques to achieve your massage goals and to help you release blocked energy that cause pain.  These include: 
  • Swedish/Deep Muscle Massage
  • Thai Massage (Stretching)
  • Aromatherapy Oils (where indicated)
  • Energy Work

While I do offer sessions independent of each other (Hot Stone, Raindrop Therapy, Prenatal Massage and Private Yoga Sessions), another session I am now offering is Integrated Massage. 

 

Each session is as unique as the individual receiving it.

 

Introductory Offer:  75Minute Integrated Massage for $75  (reg price $90)

Energy Work
Reiki & EFT
  
Sun in Hands

All forms of Alternative Medicine utilize principles of Energy Work with the outcome to increase the flow of energy (chi) in the body, release blockages, and facilitate healing. 

 

Certain techniques specifically work to address underlying emotional components of pain and physical imbalances in the body.  While treating the physical aspects is important, addressing the emotional aspects offers complete healing.

 

 

Reiki

 

Reiki has been an integral part of my practice since the beginning.  Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.  

 

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.

 

 

Emotional Freedom Technique

 

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is often referred to an Needless Acupuncture or Energy Psychology.  EFT utilizes light tapping with the fingertips on Chinese Medicine Qi (Chi) Points on the face and body while an EFT Practitioner skillfully cues into the issue at hand using specific verbiage. EFT is a non-invasive way to release trauma from the body, mind, and energetic systems. 

 

When any trauma occurs, it gets downloaded by the brain and body while we are in the FIGHT OR FLIGHT MODE and is therefore unable to be processed properly.  The trauma is then frozen within our energetic system, as a coping mechanism, and becomes a piece of our IDENTITY and ultimately the nature of our subconscious belief-systems.  It is these subconscious belief systems that predicate the actions we take and what we manifest in our daily lives.  The key to changing those belief-systems and subsequent actions is to release the underlying trauma. 

 

When you combine these two powerful therapies, you work toward:

  • Releasing underlying beliefs that cause these traumas within your body (through EFT)
  • Rebalancing your body increasing your vital strength through restorative techniques (through Reiki)

We both offer individual sessions, however, we are also offering a package which includes:

 

2 EFT Sessions

2 Reiki Sessions

for $260

personal testimonial:

As a holistic practitioner, I have trained in several types of energy work and experienced many types of sessions over the past decade.  The E.F.T. sessions I received from Wendy have helped me move forward through major transitions in my life both professionally and personally.  Tapping on actual meridian points is powerful, however; Wendys' intuitive skills as she guides you through the session are undeniably the gift she brings to this work.  Her skills are beyond what I have experienced from many other gifted practitioners.  E.F.T. Sessions from her are extraordinarily powerful and effective for both emotional and physical healing...Kathleen Wellman
