Ilsa Wood LMT
Massage Therapy
Education:
Arcata School of Massage, graduated 2007
Specialties or Training:
Esalen and Lomi-Lomi, Hot Stone, Chi-Nei-Tsang (Zen abdominal massage), Cranio-sacral and Hydro-therapy.
Favorite modalities:
I love many kinds of bodywork, but I feel my greatest strength is helping people relax deeply with a flowing, strong and nurturing full-body massage.
Philosophy on Healing:
As a massage practitioner, my two most important roles in healing are to provide a safe space and a soothing touch. If one can fully let go of physical engagement and enter into a parasympathetic state, the body’s natural healing power is activated, and many kinds of regenerative processes begin. These include auto-immune functions, tissue regeneration, fine-tuned musculoskeletal adjustments and digestion. Calming and clearing the mind also gives one a chance to release old thought patterns and open to a fresh perspective of life.
