In an effort to streamline my website, I have removed the deep tissue offering from the menu since it was informational and I generally do not offer it. So for those who are interested or looking for it, the wording has been moved here:
Deep Pressure / Deep Tissue Massage (update 11/2020) The Deep Tissue work is not really its own massage, but rather the incorporation of deeper pressure wherever is needed to obtain the desired result. I have decided to remove Deep Tissue as an option from my offerings for the moment. Mostly because I don't believe in it, and it is not my strong suit. Deep Tissue started as a marketing gimmick (the term was invented by a therapist to differentiate his practice from the pack by way of ads and flyers) and remains so. However, it remains a popular request; every client should receive the work they love. It is often sought out and this is not to take away from any of the talented therapists who specialize in deep pressures. My work is unique, and extremely well received but it is more mind body focused and relaxation/stress management oriented. I love that every therapist is unique and every client should get what they love. That said, deeper pressure can be incorporated into any treatment, particularly the custom massage option.

I have craved the Lomi Lomi technique for YEARS! In the long 14+ years since I have received Lomi, I have sought out massage therapists and used bodywork and massage therapy, never feeling fully satisfied. I always ask for the deep tissue massage to feel the therapeutic benefits. After finding Lomi Lomi again with Edward, I now realize that deep massage is not the answer or the cure all. Our body may feel knotted, tight, stressed, heavy, sore, etc. in places that we think deep massage is needed. However, in reality the physical manifestations and symptoms are a result of emotional, mental, or spiritual blocks needing to be released and to find balance and harmony. Lomi Lomi and maybe even Esalen are gentle, soft, loving ways to achieve this balance without the deep pressure!
