Why “Next Wave”?

What does the name Next Wave Healing mean?   Everything in our universe is energy and movement and that movement is in the form of vibration or waves.  Nothing ever is the same from one moment to the next.  One wave, to the next, to the next, to the next.  Each with it’s own unique quality.  The next wave of energy is always out there waiting to be born, to move, to complete.  You are constantly regenerating.  Hair, skin, organs, muscles, bones are ever changing.  Each moment or wave of energy is a new opportunity for change.  If energy is allowed to move in it’s natural path, freedom and clarity and natural course will be the outcome.  If it is blocked, the result is a build up or an imbalance.  My goal is to assist you in removing blocks and imbalances so that you can experience the “Next Wave” to it’s fullest.  So that you feel your very best:  relaxed, vital, and balanced and that it may extend from your sessions to all aspects of your life. 

It is important to note that body and energy work is accumulative.  Just as the ocean waves that change the contour of the land over time, so does the repetitive reminder of a relaxed state change the contour of the body and mind. 

My Experience with Energetic Healing and Therapeutic Massage

A while back, I started having sharp pains in my right side. A few times, they were so bad, I went to the emergency room. On one visit, a nurse offered to practice Reiki on me to help the pain. I wasn’t sure what it was but would try anything. She laid her hand gently on my shoulder. Within a minute, the pain decreased to a dull ache. The doctors never discovered anything. I suspect it was stress but, the Reiki experience was so profound, I eventually became certified myself.

Having done a great deal of running and other sports, I valued the benefits of massage. Once I got into the world of software development, I found that sitting for hours in the same position was even harder on my body than the occasional injury I received from being very active. I found massage even more valuable.

These experiences led me to training in Holistic healing. I found Polarity Therapy which combined many of the practices I already had great experience with: Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Ayerveda, Energy Work (Reiki) and Massage.

I studied and practiced with great passion and under great teachers. I feel so blessed to be able to share this work. If you are looking for a more proactive way to get or stay healthy, consider trying Therapeutic Massage or Energetic Healing. The benefits are amazing.
