Migraine Relief without Medication

CranioSacral Therapy has a long track record of relieving migraines, the pain and the challenges. With Laura's advanced training in CranioSacral Therapy, she successfully facilitates long term relief from migraines for clients.

We suggest that you commit for 4-5 sessions to allow your body to make the shifts necessary to relieve the pain. Many clients continue to come in for "tune-ups" as best suits their body's needs. You can read more in this article by Dr. John Upledger about the light touch solution for migraines.

Are you ready to get your life back?

Deduct What?

As a form of healthcare, your massage services may very well be tax deductible. We have all of our 2010 records handy. If you need receipts for services from 2010, please contact us and we will get them right out to you. And remember - we are Massage Therapists, not Accountants, so get your final tax advice from the right specialist.

It is Spring - is it time for a cleanse?

Spring and Fall are the natural times to cleanse and detox the body. Chesapeake Holistic Health Center has created an exclusive package of products that are very effective, while also being gentle and comfortable. It is a two week program that you can start anytime. The package costs $99. Both Laura and Amelia have completed this cleanse and highly recommend it.

· Basic cleanse kit - designed to gently cleanse your body and reduce toxins

· Candida cleanse - designed to kill yeast cells and reduce sugar cravings

· Homeopathic drainage formula - designed to help eliminate the toxins from your body

· Eating guide and meal suggestions

· Recipe booklet

Two Ways to Make it even Better!

1. You can enhance the power of your cleanse by including Lymph Drainage Therapy sessions to assist your body in clearing the toxins and waste products from your body. This can be a separate session, or incorporated into your regular session.

2. Group Cleanse - Michele Calo will guide you through the cleanse with 3 conference calls, unlimited email, text and phone support. This program is $179 inclusive and starts on April 3rd and 10th. Call CHHC for more information and to sign up, 410-349-9043.

Recent Feedback - Thank You!

CranioSarcral Therapy for Migraines:

Ellen Y. says "As a migraine sufferer for over 20 years, I have sought help from many different types of therapy. After several sessions of CranioSacral therapy from Laura, I experienced more relief from migraines than with any other type of therapy. The CST is actually helping my body to heal itself. I am continuing to schedule monthly massages to support the healing. Thank you, Laura, for your understanding, gentle touch, expertise, and I can't forget to mention your wonderful sense of humor, which is also good therapy!

Fibromyalgia pain:

Fran C. says: "My one hour session with Mia was glorious. I have fibromyalgia and found the massage helped me tremendously with the muscle and tendon pain. I would recommend massage to all my fellow sufferers."

Post Surgical Lymph Drainage:

Eugenia P. says: Amelia was nothing short of GREAT. My first session of lymphatic drainage was amazingly soothing, but more important, I saw immediate results with my swelling shortly after returning home. Amelia really took some time to talk to me about my procedure and the benefits of the massage. She also took time to explain what she was doing during the therapy session, and I was immediately placed at ease. She has a BEAUTIFUL spirit and I am blessed to have come across her on-line.
