Lisa Remy LMT, MA55602

 

Lisa is a licensed massage therapist (MA55602), reiki practitioner, and certified yoga instructor.  She believes that all aspects of a person need to be addressed for deep healing, and spiritual evolution to occur.  The body must be nurtured by the food, herbs, water, and all else that is taken in through the senses.  Movement is also essential to maintain health, with strength and flexibility being equally important.  Massage therapy helps to increase circulation, remove
toxins from the body, increase flexibilty and range of motion, assist in recovery from an injury or surgery, re-establish the mind-body connection, and nourish the soul.
