Andria Chan brings with her over 20 years experience as a Massage Therapist and Reiki Master. Treatment Philosophy: Healing occurs when the physical body, spirit, mental and emotional mind, and energetic components of a being are all in harmony. This can be achieved through natural manual and energetic modalities to assist in the prevention and management of pain, as well as rehabilitation from chronic muscle issues. Listening to the body and assisting in creating the optimal environment allows healing to occur.

Specialties: Integrated massage - each massage is as unique as the individual I am working on, guided by a lifetime of intuition and many years of education, study, experience, and practice. This massage is specifically tailored to the client based on their constitution and session goals.

Clients best suited to my style of therapy: clients who want someone who can listen, understand, and connect what they are saying with what their body needs and create a session based on that to achieve their session goals.

Preferred styles of massage therapy used in treatments: I have always loved the more clinical aspect of massage AND have also been fascinated by the ideas of Eastern healing. I enjoy combining the two, body work and energy work, for a “whole”-listic (holistic) approach to healing and pain management. My specialty is giving a 100% customized massage where I can integrate all of the techniques I have studied to best suit the needs of the individual.

Calming Relaxation & Restoration

Swedish Massage This customized massage uses light to medium pressure to put you in a state of total relaxation. Gliding, kneading, rolling, percussive, and tapping massage techniques all flowing towards the heart will be used to reduce stress, increase relaxation and circulation, and may improve the quality of sleep.

Dry Brushing Full body dry brushing with Gua Sha Face massage and Osea Vagus Nerve Oil. A soft stiff bristle brush or a dry washcloth will be used (depending on skin sensitivity of the individual) to encourage circulation and lymph movement.

The Gua Sha Face Massage uses healing stone crystals to ground and center the spirit, encourage circulation and lymph, detoxify, relieve tension, and leave the skin lifted, sculpted, and tightened with a youthful glow.

Prenatal Massage A full body massage designed to release tension and muscle fatigue. This massage focuses on the specific muscles responsible for the body's changes during pregnancy to support the pregnant mother-to-be.

Foot Reflexology This foot massage can revive and revitalize the entire body through massage of the feet. This includes a relaxing foot bath with fine aromatherapy oils making this treatment a must have for anyone who works long hours on their feet.

Hot Stone Massage Warm stone therapy enhances massage by combining the benefits of heat with traditional massage.  Specifically designed Synergy Stones, Lanshin infrared heat massager, and Himalayan salt stones, are used to relax the layers of muscles, targeting knots and melting away muscle tension while warm salt crystal stones ground and balance the body's electromagnetic field, central nervous system, and meridians. Salt crystals from an ancient primal sea beneath the Himalayan Mountains are hand-carved into massage stones that gently soothe away accumulations of stress, tension, and pollutants while bringing the mind, body, and spirit into balance.

Core Zen This is an abdominal massage that incorporates ancient and modern massage modalities that focus on the abdomen. The many benefits include fertility, (preconception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey), correction of prolapsed, fallen, or tilted uterus, prevention and treatment of benign prostate enlargement in men, relief from common digestive disorders, and helps release emotions that settle into our bodies creating physical, mental, emotional disharmony.

Facial Cupping Uses a machine or manual cup to gently lift the skin creating space in the underlying tissues, releases tension in the muscle and fascia, minimizes the appearance of fine lines, scars and wrinkles, encourages movement of lymph decreasing puffiness, tones the chin, jawline, neck and décolleté, increases circulation promoting cellular repair and regeneration, leaving the skin bright and rejuvenated. Cupping benefits conditions such as whiplash, clenching teeth, jaw misalignment, TMJD, sinuses, allergies, sinusitis, headaches, face lifting and drainage, scarring from spinal or thyroid surgeries that disrupt lymphatic drainage, and congestion around the eyes.

Deep, Therapeutic, & Rehabilitating

Integrated Massage This massage will be customized to create a unique experience for each session. Your therapist will combine techniques from all modalities to create an optimal treatment for your session goals Deep Tissue This customized massage uses firm to deep pressure and focuses on the muscle tissue, tendons, and fascia. The work is performed superficial to deep, working layer by layer, getting deeper as the tissue relaxes and the body allows. Releases muscle tension and provides pain relief, especially from chronic pain.

Cupping Originally part of traditional Chinese medicine, cupping is used as a diagnostic tool as well as a method of treatment. A machine or manual cups are used to create a lift in the skin and underlying tissues. Often leaving cupping marks, the color reflects the amount of “stagnation” or cellular waste commonly trapped by tight muscles. The marks fade as the muscles relax, and proper circulation and functioning of the lymphatic system is restored to process the waste. Benefits include increasing oxygen-rich and nutrient dense blood circulation, relaxation of both muscle and fascia, promotes movement of lymph, all of which encourages healing and decreases pain.

Rehabilitation Massage 60 or 90 minute massages performed weekly over no more than 5 weeks can decrease pain by 50%. All 5 sessions must be used to treat the same condition in order to be effective. Each session will focus on a different aspect of the rehabilitation process of healing from chronic pain. As all bodies are unique, results vary for each individual. Factors that affect this include how long the condition has persisted, activities that perpetuate the condition, and client participation in corrective actions and lifestyle changes. The goal is to decrease the frequency of massages to a monthly maintenance plan.

Sports Massage This customized massage is designed to enhance athletic performance and recovery. Pre- event massage can help warm up the muscles by increasing circulation to the specific muscles about to be used. Post-event massage can speed and improve the quality of healing, and reduce recovery time between training sessions.

Traditional Thai Massage During this session the fully clothed recipient will be moved though a sequence of yoga-like stretching positions. Thai massage is very relaxing with minimal client participation. Pressure can vary and lends itself well to deeper pressure and can address the entire body or one or two specific areas. The recipient should wear loose clothing.

Ashiatsu Inspired by ancient forms of Eastern barefoot techniques, Ashiatsu DeepFeet Bar Therapy is a western adaptation of barefoot massage. Therapists utilize their bodyweight and bare feet to apply a deep relaxing and therapeutic massage. Gravitational force is combined with centrifugal and centripetal movements. Correct application will induce deep relaxation, decrease pain and inflammation and create structural change in chronic soft tissue damage. Parallel wooden bars are used above the therapists head for support, balance, and client safety. Lubrication is applied to the client's body.

Ashi-Thai Ashi-Thai is a combination of compressive techniques and passive stretches. These movements are an expression of traditional Thai massage techniques and have been modified for the use of overhead bars to avoid bending and lifting. The technique is performed on fully clothed clients, on a raised massage table without any oils or creams. Sometimes called “lazy man yoga” since the client remains passive while the therapist performs the stretches for them and places them in may different yoga poses.

Energy Work Services

Jin Shin Jyutsu is an ancient art that harmonizes and brings balance to the body’s energies, which promotes optimal health and well-being and facilitates profound healing of the body, mind and spirit. This is practiced by placing finger tips (over clothing) on specific points called saftey energy locks, SEL, and induces deep relaxation while reducing the efects of tension and stress that accumulate through normal daily living. Saftey Energy Locks act to protect the body when energy becomes blocked. When a SEL is shut down symptoms manifest in the corresponding areas of the body. These symptoms signify an imbalance as well as help identify its source.

Reiki This is a powerful healing, yet deeply relaxing and gentle session. The practitioner places their hands on or just above the client’s body with a passive touch in order to activate healing energy. A harmonic flow of sacred life force energy is restored within the recipient and healing occurs through the return of physical, mental, and spiritual balance.

Gua Sha This traditional Eastern Asian practice has full body and facial applications. Using healing crystals stones, the face, neck and decolletage are gently stroked to encourage lymphatic flow, increase circulation, and smooth and lift the skin. Traditionally full body use is more vigorous. Both face and body benefit from the detoxifying, tension relieving, grounding practice that leaves the skin lifted, sculpted, and tightened with a youthful glow.
