Ann Hauer: Professional Massage & Bodywork Therapy

Now, More than ever; You Need a Massage!:

You may be tempted to trim your wellness budget when economic times are tough. Yet a recent national consumer survey showed most massage-minded Americans are committed to maintaining the health benefits they experience with massage. It only makes sense. The better you feel then the better job you can do of caring for yourself and your loved ones.

Now, more than ever, massage should play a role in reducing stress and strengthening the health of Americans. When people feel their best, they are more likely to be able to face the challenges difficult times present. With greater health and peace of mind, consumers can face difficulties with poise, clarity of purpose, and strengthened emotional reserves.

Truly, massage is more than a luxury--it is a vital part of self-care that has a positive ripple effect on us as we work, play, and care for others.

Invest In Yourself and Those You Love
If you think about it, massage is an excellent value. The price of massage has remained stable in recent years, as the cost of movies, meals out, and sports events has risen. Which of these has the power to improve your health and your outlook on life?

Home. Massage therapy will also help families under stress create healthier households with clear-thinking and more relaxed moms and dads. Children are very sensitive and often notice tension in a household, parents who are taking care of themselves are more likely to be better caregivers and provide a sense of security to their kids. This goes for caregivers of aging parents and other family members.

Work. The health benefits of massage can help forestall illnesses and lost work time, especially when you may be asked to produce more with fewer resources. Decision-making skills will be better and your performance is likely to be improved with a clear focus and more energy. A hint for the boss: Research shows employees exhibit less stress and improved performance when given twice-weekly, 15-minute massages in the office!

Health Conditions. Those with already existing health conditions can continue to reap many benefits (See here.) And proactively caring for health through massage may help reduce costly doctor visits and use of prescription and over-the-counter medications.

If you are suffering endlessly with allergies, back pain, headaches/ migraines, chronic pain, illness, stress or just need an hour to escape from it all… then you have found the right place!  I am a Certified and Insured Therapist, specializing in this natural therapy that consists of:  Reflexology, Massage, Aromatherapy and RainDrop Technique as it is especially effective in maintaining the body from allergens, toxins and stress.  These healing techniques can help to combat and get to the 'root' of many ailments and chronic complaints, and usually without any discomfort as I keep in communication with you, without disturbing you.

I believe that there is not one 'general relaxation session' for everyone, and as every body is unique as is everyone's "sense of pain", I customize and explain every session to meet your individual needs while making sure you are happy with the treatment plan and outcome.

The wonders of this healing art continue to Amaze me.  I love what I do: Helping others feel better by relieving their pain and/ or stress. As 90% of all illness is stress-induced, it really makes a difference when you take time out to take care of your body, by preventing further stress and damage to it!  When a therapist can put the body into a balance through bodywork, this is when your body begins to self-heal. Just the power of touch... how awesome is that?

Just as Diet and Exercise are important, Reflexology and Massage should also be a High Priority to Maintaining Vitality, Balance and Wellness of the Body, Mind and Spirit/ Soul!  I try very hard to provide this to all current and possible clients in the most peaceful and affordable manner with the best quality products!
