My personal massage technique involves a variety of modalities such as Swedish, Alma, Deep Tissue, LomiLomi, Reiki, and more. In Hawaii we call this a "mixed plate" massage. (traditionally, a variety of different foods on one plate) Your session will include a mixture of these styles, releasing your tension and stress, soothing your muscles, stimulating circulation and healing, leaving you with a new sense of serenity, healing and wholeness. My personal training started with massage instruction in high school in Seattle and culminated with certification through the Academy of Massage in Hawaii.
Various Accompaniments can be added to your massage such as Exotic Hot Stones, and Renewing Salt Scrubs, Body Shaves, Face and Foot Treatments. The Ultimate 2 hour massage package offers both the renewing scrub and rain shower, exotic hot stones and signature Hawaiian style massage. The full body Hawaiian sea salt scrub is given first and then, after showering, your skin is silky smooth and clean, and perfect for the hot stones and hands to glide almost effortlessly across your skin.
Aroma Therapy is provided free along with every massage session and a variety of oils and lotions are used. My massage preference is chiefly a heated Cocoa Butter for the body and a Shea Butter on the hands and feet. I also use over 50 essential oils, various other massage oils and homemade essential oil air sprays.
Music is varied, with over 1500 tracks of various styles, incl. nature, ambient, Hawaiian, new age, light jazz and various other styles and can easy be customized to any clients wishes.
The Space is spotlessly clean, and lighting is a combination of candle light, golden alabaster columns and blue accent light. Sheets are flannel, either blue, green or golden on a wide, 32 inch solid custom built massage table.

Original Hawaii Location
The front gate with the parking area next to the cottage. A side view of the cottage. A photo of the white sundeck on the beach looking west, and one looking east, toward Honolulu. A partial view of the large lanai next to the beach, and a shot of the beach deck. The last one is of myself, hiking in the Washington mountains where I am originally from. New photos of the Palm Springs location will hopefully be posted soon!
