Massage is one of the oldest forms of natural therapy.

Both remedial and relaxation massage are offered at Wind Water Health. In addition to regular massage techniques, we also incorporate stretching, joint mobilization, myofascial release, proprioceptive neuromuscular function (PNF) stretches, ultrasound, TENS, trigger point therapy and acupressure. Versatility is one of the greatest advantages when it comes to massage therapy. Massage can be an oasis from our hectic modern lifestyles. It can be a solution to pain: including headaches, menstrual pain, lower back pain, and general soreness or cramping. Massage can remind us how amazing our bodies truly are, when we breathe more deeply, move more freely, think more clearly, and sleep more restfully.Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient system of natural medicine. Traditional Chinese Medicine has had over 5,000 years of refinement and improvement, based on philosophy, practical observation and testing. Acupuncture involves the painless insertion of very fine needles into specific points in your body.

Reiki
Reiki is an ancient form of energy based healing. Reiki simply means "Spirit" or "Universal" ("Rei") and "Energy" (Ki). We are combination of Mind, Body & Spirit and it is our spiritual energy is what we express in our daily life, whether we know it or not. A healthy fulfilled life begins with a healthy and fulfilled inner being. However, many a times we do develop blockages in this mind-body-spirit continuity which slows and stops the natural flow of life and in many instances results in serious physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues in life. Since Reiki energy is from our higher consciousness, it knows exactly where to flow and hence there is very limited intervention is required on behalf of the client and practitioner. Reiki healing is Curative and Preventative in nature (i.e. Curative - it will help heal existing issues at any level of our existence; Preventative - clients who treat themselves to Reiki regularly experience less and less of stressful situations, sickness and generally enjoy a much better level peace and happiness in their daily lives).

- Stress management and relaxation

- Business space and Home clearing to accentuate the positive energy
