Description
Treat yourself or a loved one to a deep, soothing 90-minute Thai massage by Sarah Carl, LMT.
Thai massage has dedicated thousands of years of evolution to your health and happiness. It is a deep, soothing massage that gently blends relaxation, acupressure, fascia release and passive stretches. People have experienced deep, lasting effects like improvements in energy, range of motion, circulation and sleep, lowered anxiety, better posture and reduced scar-tissue - even in areas not directly treated.
About Sarah. Creating an intelligent, compassionate, integrated and creative vision of health care inspires me on a daily basis. Each treatment is tailored to patients’ needs and can be anywhere from deeply relaxing to intensely therapeutic. I enjoy giving focused attention to a pain pattern, following it like a maze and watching it resolve. My training is heavily influenced by Thai bodywork and theory, although also includes myofascial work, Swedish massage and other Western techniques. I have been studying and practicing Thai massage with local teachers since 2004 and received training in Thailand with an internationally renowned master.
Nature is Medicine. History has proven that healthy relationships with the environment evolve out of living as part of our local ecosystems. Learning animal tracking and naturalist skills over the past few years has broadened my perspective and taught me deep appreciation for the world around me. I encourage everyone to take part in activities that strengthen their relationship with the natural world as part of their own health care habits.
Why Thai massage? It hooked me on day one and I haven’t looked back since. It uses movement to heal, it serves as viable therapy for anything from subtle energy work to deep tissue, the practice is about keeping both giver and receiver at their optimal health at every moment and the theory encompassed health for body, mind and heart on a very practical level.
