Aromatherapy
For thousands of years plant extracts have been used for their exquisite aromas and natural healing properties. Aromatherapy utilizes naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants to balance, harmonize and promote the health of body, mind and spirit. It seeks to unify physiological, psychological and spiritual processes in order to enhance an individual’s innate healing process.
Through our sense of smell, Aromatherapy activates receptors in our nose which send messages through our nervous system to certain parts of our brain. It can awaken both our emotions through activation of our limbic system and assist in the release of certain 'feel good' chemicals like serotonin. When topically applied, it can physically ease muscular aches and pains; while improving circulation.
Rich in botanical activity and antioxidants, plant oils encourage a number of healthy, beneficial outcomes by working at a cellular level, as well. By harnessing their therapeutic properties, aromatherapy works to improve our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Known as the "Healing Metal", the Kansa wand's bronze cap is produced from an amalgam of pure tin and copper. Applied to the face and/or foot with organic oils, it provides a number of benefits. It can restore levels of Prana (Energy).
The gentle friction applied to facial muscles and/or feet provide stress-reducing stimulation to one's subtle energy field. The natural, gentle face-lifting technique leaves behind an amazingly vibrant, youthful glow. Used on the feet, it leaves one relaxed, yet energized, by relieving daily tensions.

Reflexology**
Some areas of our bodies are more sensitive than others. Some of the most sensitive are found to be our hands, face, fingertips, and feet. This is because they have more nerve endings present there. For example, it is said that our feet alone have 7,000 nerve endings. While our fingertips have some of the densest areas of nerve endings.
Reflexology is the physical act of applying pressure to the feet, hands, or ears. It can be a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience. It relaxes muscles. It can improve flexibility and range of motion.
It relieves stress and also encourages relaxation. Clients often report a complete feeling of relaxation throughout their whole body. They claim all feelings of stress and anxiety seem to melt away.
