Reflexology, sometimes called reflex zone therapy, is a holistic therapy that aims to restore and maintain the body's natural balance and encourage healing. Reflexology works through focused pressure applied to specific areas on the hands or feet. It can be used for stress release, as a general "tune-up," or to assist an unhealthy body in its healing process; and people of all ages can benefit from reflexology treatments.

Today, reflexology is used as a therapeutic treatment for a full range of conditions, including back pain, sports injuries, migraines, and arthritis. This type of therapy is even said to be effective in treating infertility, digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and sleep disorders. [More]

Reiki

Reiki is a technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes deep healing. Gentle enough to be enjoyed by expectant mothers, newborns and the very ill, it is nonetheless a powerful and extremely beneficial therapy.

Reiki can, for instance, lessen the uncomfortable side effects of chemotherapy, reduce pain following surgery, and shorten healing time. Reiki can also provide a relaxed, peaceful environment for those who are preparing for their passage from this life. [More]

At Windsong, sound and vibration - chanting, toning, drumming and the sounds of the singing crystal bowl - are used when appropriate. These vibratory tools affect the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies simultaneously, to bring them into harmony while enhancing the body’s innate healing capabilities.

At the quantum level of being, everything in the universe vibrates to its own rhythm, at its own particular frequency.

Although scientific studies related to the effect that sound has on matter are relatively new, it is becoming clear that sound can alter matter. For instance, biofeedback research appears to indicate that even brief heartbeat drumming can double light meditative brainwaves (alpha waves) and reduce stress. [More]

The deep, relaxing comfort of Hot Stones and the concentrated energy of Crystals provide additional benefits where needed. [More]
